Xavier Legette

It's not a surprise based on how last season ended -- and how Coker blew up in the Wild Card loss to the Rams -- but it's good to get coach validation. Xavier Legette has struggled to grab hold of the role in any real way. While Coker finished the year with just a 33/394/3 line, he makes for an intriguing fantasy WR4/WR5 target in drafts and Best Ball.

Horn often played the shifty, speed receiver role for the Panthers -- he was actually used fairly often in Weeks 5-7 before Jalen Coker returned. The rookie wideout dropped the final ball Bryce Young threw in this game, but figures to challenge for a roster spot in 2026 and could eventually bump up against Xavier Legette's role once the Panthers get tired of watching Legette targets.

Outside of Legette's 9/92/1 game against (of course) the Jets in Week 5, the Panthers' "No. 1 receiver" per Dave Canales' NFL combine interview did absolutely nothing of fantasy note this season. He cleared 50 yards just one other time and managed receiving yardage totals of 3 yards, one yard, zero yards, and minus-2 yards (on eight targets!) in four of his 15 games. Legette's fantasy stock in 2026 is at "A Chipmunk Christmas in a thrift store bargain bin" levels.
