Xavier Legette, the electrifying wide receiver for the Carolina Panthers, recently shared his thoughts on new teammate Tetairoa McMillan, who was drafted eighth overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. Legette, selected with the 32nd pick in 2024, expressed his enthusiasm for McMillan’s game, highlighting the impressive catches he made during their college careers. Although the two have not yet connected directly, Legette admires McMillan’s ability to high-point the ball and his speed on the field.

As the Panthers aim to enhance their receiving corps, the addition of McMillan is a strategic move. Legette himself is eager to bounce back from a challenging rookie season affected by injuries and dropped passes. Having McMillan alongside him could open up new opportunities for both players as they establish themselves in the NFL.
