Should I Start Xavier Legette?

Friday, November 13, 7:47 AM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (knee) is listed as questionable to play on Sunday in Week 10 against the division-rival New Orleans Saints, according to The Athletic's Joe Person. Legette was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice, so he should be on the right side of questionable to come off Injured Reserve on Saturday and play on Sunday in New Orleans. The 25-year-old former first-rounder in 2024 has played in only two games so far in his third year in the NFL due to his knee injury. Before his injury, he was serving as the WR3 for Carolina behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker, leading to just two receptions on six targets for 64 yards. Legette has been a major disappointment for the Panthers early in his career, catching 86 of his 154 targets for 924 yards (10.7 yards per reception) and seven touchdowns in 33 games played, and as long as McMillan and Coker stay healthy, he will have limited fantasy upside as a deep-league stash for WR depth. Legette is not currently rostered in any Yahoo leagues, and he will not be a recommended flex play in deeper leagues this weekend if he is active versus the Saints.
