Panthers WR Xavier Legette entered Sunday's game questionable but finished it tied for the team lead in pass routes. He was on the field for 93.3% of QB Bryce Young's dropbacks, matching WR David Moore for the team lead. Legette drew a team-high 6 targets. He tied for the team lead with 4 receptions, ranked third with 33 receiving yards, and snagged the team's only TD pass.

Week 8 found Legette trailing fellow rookie Jalen Coker in playing time. That flipped Sunday, with Legette leading Coker by 20 snaps and 11 routes.
Bryce Young throwing for a mere 171 yards in a fine matchup with the Saints reinforces a low passing ceiling that helps keep Legette from being an attractive fantasy pickup.
Carolina gets a Week 12 bye and then it's worst remaining matchup with the Chiefs in Week 13.
