Xavier Legette has been getting heat from all angles lately. The Carolina Panthers haven't lost faith in the second-year wide receiver. Still, his indifferent performances to start the campaign haven't been well received by critics who believe the franchise made a grave mistake bringing him into the fold.
Legette's excuses aren't carrying the same weight as they did during his rookie campaign. The same problems keep popping up, and his perceived lack of effort against the Arizona Cardinals didn't do much to turn the tide. A massive response is needed, but preparations for this weekend's home opener versus the Atlanta Falcons didn't start on the right foot.
