Xavier Legette's rookie season with the Carolina Panthers presented a mixed bag of performances, marked by a standout Week 4 but otherwise inconsistent fantasy outputs. Despite being the 32nd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Legette faced stiff competition from teammates like D.J. Chark Jr. and Jonathan Mingo, limiting his playing time initially. However, as the season progressed, Legette emerged as a more prominent player, particularly after several trades and injuries to teammates, leading to a significant increase in his offensive snaps.

Although his playing time surged in the latter part of the season, Legette struggled with consistency, often failing to score more than 10 PPR points outside of games where he found the end zone. His reported offseason improvements and the arrival of new competition in the form of Tetairoa McMillan may finally provide the push he needs to turn potential into production. Fantasy owners should monitor his development closely as he aims for a more significant role as the clear starter over his competitors.
