Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette is having a rough start to his sophomore year, and one prominent NFL reporter believes the team could trade him while his value is still high. A first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the South Carolina product had a decent rookie season, appearing in 16 games while recording 49 receptions for 497 yards and four touchdowns.
Panthers Could Trade Xavier Legette; 4 Team Fits Emerge
Unfortunately, he hasn’t been able to build on his rookie season. Through two games, the wide receiver has caught just four of his 15 targets for an embarrassing eight yards and no touchdowns. The advanced metrics aren’t any better, as his 48.8 PFF grade ranks 110th out of 114 eligible players.
Because of this, Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox believes it’s time for the Panthers to trade Xavier Legette, and he believes the team could receive a conditional third-round pick for his services. The only question is, who would give up that type of return for him?
