BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 10% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Xavier Legette was targeted three times this week, catching two of those for 42 yards. It was a nice bounce-back effort after he wasn't targeted at all in Week 2 against the Chargers.
All-22 on Xavier Legette's 35-yard reception. On this play, he hits 20.58 MPH.
He didn't see a target in week 2, but turned around and saw 3 targets in week three in Carolina's win against the Raiders.
His first target came in the 2nd quarter and the other two in the third… pic.twitter.com/P8Nm4It1Fl

Legette's fantasy value right now is really more about whatever is going to happen with Adam Thielen, though. The veteran receiver left Sunday's game against the Raiders late in the first half with a hamstring injury, putting his short-term availability in doubt.
If Thielen ends up missing time, Legette looks like a streaming option in deep leagues. The Panthers' offense looked rejuvenated with Andy Dalton taking over for Bryce Young at quarterback and has a juicy matchup on deck against the Bengals in Week 4, a team that was absolutely destroyed by the Commanders' passing attack on Monday night.
