Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Xavier Legette

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams was recently suspended two games for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances. Now, Williams could be in even more trouble after an incident with the police earlier this month. Williams was the passenger of a routine traffic stop on October 8th. He discussed the incident with the organization and it seemed like a minor issue. That doesn't appear to be the case as Williams reportedly had a gun on him in the car. The Detroit police are investigating why Williams avoided arrest after a gun was found in the car. Possibly this incident blows over, but this is something fantasy managers should keep an eye on right now.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has had a modest start to his NFL career, catching 22 of his 35 targets for 211 yards and three touchdowns through his first eight games. However, the Panthers are trading Diontae Johnson to the Baltimore Ravens, opening the door for Legette to be the clear WR1 for Bryce Young or Andy Dalton. It's worth noting Adam Thielen (hamstring) is eligible to return from Injured Reserve and rookie Jalen Coker has come on in recent weeks, but expect the Panthers to feature its first-round pick heavily with an eye toward the future. Legette's upside is higher with Dalton in the lineup, but even if Young takes over the QB1 duties for the foreseeable future, Legette should see targets in bunches.
