Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Xavier Legette

Monday, September 15, 8:24 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to a decent, yet unspectacular, start to the 2025 season. Through two games, Jeudy has caught nine of his 16 targets for 117 scoreless yards as the Cleveland offense has struggled mightily thus far. The veteran's receiving yardage is good enough to lead the Browns so far, showing just how much moving the football has been an issue. Jeudy will look to break out at home in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers have been tough on defense thus far, as they shut down the Detroit Lions' receivers in Week 1 and gave up just 92 receiving yards and a touchdown combined to Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel in Week 2. Jeudy is looking like a WR4 in fantasy unless the Browns can straighten out their offensive issues.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette was ejected from Friday's preseason game against the Cleveland Browns after a first-quarter altercation. The 24-year-old did not record any catches or targets before being thrown out of the 30-10 loss. Legette was a first-round pick in last year's draft, with a rookie stat line of 49-49-4 on 84 targets. Panthers head coach Dave Canales acknowledged that while the play was physical, Legette's response was a liability. "You can't do that... both guys got ejected, rightfully so," Canales said, per Darin Gantt of panthers.com. The incident occurred while Legette was downfield blocking and got tangled up with Browns cornerback Rayshawn Mitchell. RotoBaller projects Legette as WR69 with a slight uptick in catches, yards, and TDs this season. He is most likely to be behind rookie stud Tetairoa McMillan and veteran Adam Thielen in targets. Still, he could emerge as an upside WR4/5 if anything happens to Thielen as the season progresses.
