Added to injury report
Legette was limited at Thursday's practice due to a toe injury, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Legette is a midweek addition to Carolina's practice report, so his status bears watching Friday to see if he may be in danger of sitting out (or being inhibited) Sunday versus the Saints. In the wake of the Diontae Johnson trade earlier this week, Legette is in line to pace the Panthers' receiving corps moving forward, but the current health concern may throw a wrench into those expectations in the short term.

Finds end zone in Sunday's loss
Legette caught four of seven targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: The rookie wideout opened the scoring by grabbing a six-yard strike from Bryce Young in the first quarter. Legette has gotten into the end zone three times in the last five games, but he's managed only 16 catches for 134 yards on 25 targets over that stretch. Carolina's passing game is likely to be in flux in the second half of the season as coach Dave Canales sorts out his QB situation and the front office decides whether or not to trade away Diontae Johnson (ribs) and/or Adam Thielen…read more

Tops depth chart with Johnson out
Legette is in position for a larger role Sunday against the Broncos, as the Panthers will be without Diontae Johnson (rib) and Adam Thielen (hamstring), Kassidy Hill of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Legette could work as the top option in a depleted Panthers receiving corps that also includes Jalen Coker, David Moore and Jonathan Mingo. Denver boasts one of the league's stingiest secondaries, and the Broncos could get top cornerback Patrick Surtain (concussion) back from a one-game absence. Legette has caught 18 of 28 targets for 177 yards and two touchdowns through seven games. The Panthers will have Bryce Young rather than Andy Dalton (thumb) at quarterback Sunday.

Just two catches vs. Commanders
Legette caught two of his three targets for three yards in Sunday's 40-7 loss to the Commanders. He also rushed once for six yards.
Analysis: All three of Legette's touches came in the second half, possibly benefiting from a favorable game script with the Panthers trailing by as much as 37. The 2024 first-round pick is projected to continue serving as the Panthers' No. 2 wide receiver while Adam Thielen (hamstring) remains sidelined. However, it's unclear how much fantasy value he'll posses moving forward with Carolina's recent offensive struggles.

Catches touchdown vs. Falcons
Legette caught three of his four targets for 23 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 38-20 loss to the Falcons.
Analysis: Legette served as the Panthers' No. 2 wide receiver in the absence of Adam Thielen (hamstring) on Sunday and performed relatively well. Despite a favorable second-half game script that saw Carolina trailing by multiple scores, Legette was targeted just once in that time. The 2024 first-round pick has now recorded 16 receptions for 174 yards and two touchdowns across his first six games in Carolina, and he's expected to continue serving as the team's No. 2 wide receiver until Thielen returns…read more

Logs full practice Wednesday
Legette (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Legette made an early departure from this past Sunday's loss in Chicago due to a shoulder injury, and he underwent tests on his AC joint earlier this week. Those tests must have turned up nothing too serious, considering he handled all on-field work Wednesday. The same can't be said for fellow wide receiver Diontae Johnson (ankle), who remained limited for a third straight practice going back to last week.

Practicing Wednesday
Legette (shoulder) is on the field for the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Legette was forced out of Carolina's loss to the Bears in Week 5 early due to a shoulder issue, but he's said he doesn't expect to miss time. The rookie first-round pick also underwent imaging Monday to test his AC joint, but Legette looks to have been cleared of anything significant. The Panthers' first official Week 6 practice report will be issued later Wednesday, when it will be known to what extent Legette participated.

Doesn't expect to miss time
Legette (shoulder) said Monday he expects to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Falcons, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Legette is set to undergo imaging tests Monday to determine whether he sustained an AC joint injury while being forced out of Week 5's loss to the Bears, but the rookie first-round pick doesn't anticipate having to miss any time. Nonetheless, fantasy managers will want to monitor Legette's practice activity leading up to Week 6 action. If Legette is able to practice in at least a limited capacity Wednesday, it will bode well for his chances of suiting up versus Atlanta.

Getting AC joint tested
Legette (shoulder) said Monday he is expected to undergo imaging tests on his AC Joint, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Legette was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Bears with a shoulder injury, and it appears the Panthers are concerned about the possibility of an AC joint injury. The results of Monday's imaging tests will reveal more about the rookie first-round pick's expected recovery timetable, though it's possible Carolina won't offer an actionable update until Wednesday's first official injury report of Week 6. In the event that Legette isn't cleared to face the Falcons on Sunday, Oct. 13, Jalen Coker…read more

Leaves with shoulder injury
Legette exited Sunday's game against the Bears with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
Analysis: Coming off his big Week 4 against the Bengals, Legette was mostly a non-factor versus Chicago prior to leaving in the second half. The rookie saw just one target before exiting, catching it for a gain of eight yards. Diontae Johnson and Jonathan Mingo will work in two-wide sets while Legette is sidelined.

Catches first touchdown Sunday
Legette caught six of his 10 targets for 66 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Bengals. He added two rushes for 10 yards.
Analysis: Legette had caught just six passes for 77 yards through his first three games in Carolina. However, the 2024 first-round pick saw more snaps with Adam Thielen (hamstring) missing Sunday's contest, and Legette took full advantage of his increased opportunities, posting a 6-66-1 receiving line. The combination of Carolina's struggling defense (allowing over 32 points per game) and Thielen missing at least the team's next three games makes Legette an intriguing fantasy option going forward. He…read more

Likely to benefit sans Thielen
Legette is expected to see a boost in snaps and targets while Adam Thielen (hamstring) is on injured reserve, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Analysis: The rookie finished a Week 3 win over the Raiders with two catches for 42 yards on three targets while logging 44 of the Panthers' 74 offensive snaps, but his playing time really took off once Thielen exited the game in the second quarter due to a hamstring injury. Legette's snap share rose all the way to 76 percent in the second half, tops among Carolina receivers. Though Diontae Johnson will be locked in as the clear No. 1 option in the passing attack while Thielen is out and could see his…read more

Two catches against Raiders
Legette recorded two catches on three targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 36-22 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Legette wasn't targeted in Week 2, so this performance was a step in the right direction. However, it was less impressive in the context of the rest of the offense, as Diontae Johnson racked up 122 yards while Adam Thielen (hamstring) caught a long touchdown before exiting. The Carolina offense looks significantly improved with Andy Dalton under center, which should continue to give Legette opportunity to produce as the season progresses.

Disappoints Sunday
Legette wasn't targeted during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: After head coach Dave Canales raved about Legette's Week 1 performance (4-35-0) to reporters Wednesday, the 2024 first-round pick didn't even see a target in Week 2. Legette was on the field for just 20 offensive snaps Sunday, playing behind Jonathan Mingo (30), Diontae Johnson (45) and Adam Thielen (45). With Legette's inconsistent playing time and the Panthers offensive struggles through the first two weeks, it may be tough for the rookie to make an impact as Carolina takes on the Raiders in…read more

Impresses coach in debut
Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Wednesday that Legette "played fast" and was "fantastic" in his regular-season debut in last Sunday's loss to the Saints but still has a long way to go, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Legette played 58 percent of snaps and ran a route on 66 percent of Carolina's pass plays in the Week 1 loss, leading the Panthers in targets (seven) and catches (four) despite splitting playing time with Jonathan Mingo. The rookie caught each of his first three targets for 31 yards, before reeling in just one of four targets in the fourth quarter (for four yards) while presumed No. 1 receiver Diontae Johnson was resting on the sideline. Johnson and Adam Thielen presumably are locked into their…read more

Four grabs in pro debut
Legette caught four of seven targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 47-10 rout at the hands of the Saints.
Analysis: The 32nd overall pick in the 2024 Draft led the Panthers in targets in his NFL debut, but Legette's longest gain went for only 18 yards as Bryce Young struggled to get anything going through the air. The rookie was brought in to provide Young with a downfield threat while veterans Adam Thielen and Diontae Johnson handled underneath routes, but Legette may not get many chances to stretch the field if his QB continues to stagnate. The Carolina offense will try to regroup ahead of a Week 2 matchup…read more

Likely sitting out Saturday
Legette is not expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Jets, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The Panthers are opting to keep the majority of their starters out of the preseason contest, including the first-round rookie. Expect Jonathan Mingo and Terrace Marshall to get a bit of playing time until roster bubble wideouts such as Ihmir Smith-Marsette, David Moore and Mike Strachan get their fair share of opportunities.

Returns to practice
Legette (foot) returned to practice Monday morning, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Legette left practice early Aug. 4 and missed Thursday's 17-3 preseason loss to New England. He'll now have five days to prepare for the Panthers' second preseason game this Saturday against the Jets, and there's still time to make a run at a starting job. The lengthy list of starters held out of the preseason opener didn't include WR Jonathan Mingo, who played against the Patriots despite repping with the first-team offense in practice this summer. Mingo took one carry for six yards and…read more

Backup on first depth chart
Legette (foot) is listed behind Jonathan Mingo on the Panthers' initial depth chart released ahead of Carolina's first preseason game Thursday against New England.
Analysis: Joe Person of The Athletic reports that there's more to be desired in Legette's camp performance thus far, as he hasn't made any "head-turning plays" and has been outperformed by Mingo and Terrace Marshall. Legette missed the last few weeks of spring with a hamstring issue and is now dealing with a foot injury as well, which could be detrimental to building chemistry with Bryce Young before the 2024 season. Person also stated that he expects head coach Dave Canales to find ways to get the ball…read more

Expected to miss preseason opener
Coach Dave Canales said Monday that Legette (foot) remains day-to-day but is not expected to suit up for Thursday's preseason contest against the Patriots, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Legette left Sunday's practice early with a foot injury, but Canales says the team got "fantastic" news after an MRI revealed no fracture, per Joe Person of The Athletic. The rookie first-round pick will still likely need to wait to make his preseason debut, but the 'day-to-day' label inspires confidence that Legette will be back to full strength without missing much time. Legette is competing for a chance to open the year as a top-3 wideout alongside Diontae Johnson and Adam Thielen, with 2023…read more

Avoids major injury
Legette (lower leg) underwent an MRI that ruled out a fractured foot Sunday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Legette left practice early Sunday after suffering a lower-leg injury, but he appears to have avoided any significant damage. The wide receiver is considered day-to-day for the time being with Carolina's first preseason game set to come Thursday on the road versus the Patriots.

Dealing with lower-leg injury
Legette exited practice early Sunday due to a lower-leg issue, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Head coach Dave Canales didn't go into detail about the injury but said the team will evaluate the rookie wideout "as a precaution." Canales also stated that the injury isn't related to the hamstring issue Legette dealt with in late May and early June. If he can return to health and impress in training camp and preseason action, Legette could open the campaign as Carolina's No. 3 wide receiver.

Returns for start of camp
Legette (hamstring) was on the practice field Wednesday for the start of training camp, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: A hamstring injury limited Legette's practice participation this spring after the Panthers took him 32nd overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. He's back in action with plenty of time to secure a top-three role at receiver alongside Diontae Johnson and Adam Thielen, likely competing for perimeter snaps with 2023 second-round pick Jonathan Mingo and 2021 second-round pick Terrace Marshall. Few wide receivers can match Legette's combination of straight-line speed (4.39-second 40-yard dash time) and bulk…read more

Targeting training camp
Coach Dave Canales said Tuesday that Legette (hamstring), who isn't participating in practice, is expected to be 100 percent for training camp, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Legette has been dealing with a hamstring injury since May, but it doesn't seem the issue will prevent him from handling full reps during training camp. Canales downplayed the severity of Legette's injury, per Joe Person of The Athletic, stating that if the Panthers were currently preparing for a game week the wideout would be practicing. Once healthy, Legette should have a clear path to earning a starting role alongside veteran receivers Adam Thielen and Diontae Johnson.

Missing practice again
Legette (hamstring) isn't practicing Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Legette first missed practice last Wednesday, with Panthers coach Dave Canales saying the rookie "looked tight" the day before. Legette's hamstring injury doesn't appear too serious, as he's working off to the side with Carolina's training staff Tuesday. He'll likely be ready for the start of training camp in late July even if he doesn't practice again before then.

Dealing with tightness
Legette missed practice Wednesday, with head coach Dave Canales noting afterward that the rookie "looked tight" the day before, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 32nd overall pick appears to be dealing with a minor muscular injury in his lower body. Assuming he doesn't miss too much time, Legette is in good position to earn plenty of snaps as a rookie within a Carolina offense that's badly in need of a downfield target to complement veteran possession receivers Adam Thielen and Diontae Johnson. The Panthers didn't get much from 2023 second-round pick Jonathan Mingo last season, but they went back to the well for a physically similar player this…read more
