Panthers deliver emphatic verdict on Xavier Legette after horrific start

Xavier Legette is taking some heat right now. The Carolina Panthers wide receiver is lacking in confidence, despite most anticipating a breakout campaign in 2025. There's a long way to go, but a considerable effort is needed to turn the tide.

The jury is still out on Legette; make no mistake about that. However, head coach Dave Canales hasn't lost faith in the wideout by any stretch of the imagination.

Legette gained -2 receiving yards from one successful reception against the Arizona Cardinals. Some of his eight targets were uncatchable, but someone of his draft standing should have brought in more.
