The Carolina Panthers have activated wide receiver Xavier Legette from injured reserve as they prepare for their Week 10 road game against the New Orleans Saints. Legette, who hurt his knee during a Week 2 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, remains questionable for the contest.
Rotation and Recent Production
During Legette's absence the team leaned on John Metchie III and Brycen Tremayne to complement Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker. Legette, a 2024 first-round selection, returns to a group that recently lost David Moore and will need to compete for targets alongside quarterback Bryce Young.
Additional Roster Adjustments
Cornerback Mike Jackson, offensive lineman Brady Christensen and running back Jonathon Brooks will stay on injured reserve and are now listed as out. The Panthers elevated cornerbacks Marco Wilson and Corey Thornton from the practice squad for the Saints game. Linebacker Bobby Okereke has been ruled out, opening the door for Tyrel Dodson to start opposite Devin Lloyd.
