BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR46
ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has shown fantasy upside over the past few weeks. The rookie receiver struggled to get on the field and make an impact over the first three weeks with Adam Thielen healthy. However, he has been productive over the past three games without the veteran wide receiver.
Legette left the Week 5 loss to the Chicago Bears with an injury. Thankfully, it was a minor injury, allowing the rookie to return to the lineup last week. He had three receptions on four targets for 23 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Atlanta Falcons, totaling 9.8 half-point PPR fantasy points.
MY GOODNESS XAVIER LEGETTE!!

The rookie receiver has had nine receptions on 14 targets for 89 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 26.4 fantasy points in his two healthy games over the past three weeks.
More importantly, Legette should keep up his recent play against a struggling Washington Commanders pass defense. They have surrendered 33.2 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, the fifth-most in the NFL.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
