Panthers just made their stance on Xavier Legette crystal clear
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette | Thien-An Truong/GettyImagesXavier Legette is almost two years into his NFL journey with the Carolina Panthers. Those in power still don't know what they have in the wide receiver, and it seems as if patience is starting to wear thin.
Legette didn't cover himself in glory in Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks. The No. 32 overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft was penalized for an inexcusable offside penalty when the officials were clearly trying to tell him to get back. Either he didn't hear them, or he ignored the warning to the team's detriment, and some brief offensive momentum evaporated in the blink of an eye.
