Xavier Legette could finally prove Panthers fans got it all wrong
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette | Thien-An Truong/GettyImagesIt's been another difficult week for wide receiver Xavier Legette. Another nonsensical error against the Seattle Seahawks came with widespread criticism, with large sections of the Carolina Panthers fan base finally giving up on the pass-catcher after one frustration too many.
Head coach Dave Canales reduced Legette's reps after he was inexplicably flagged for offside despite the officials telling him to get back. This infringement was a microcosm of how things have unfolded for the No. 32 pick in 2024 since joining the Panthers. And it's going to take a significant amount to turn the tide.
