Panthers look to secure second win in New England amid Xavier Legette’s absence
The Carolina Panthers, despite a rocky start to their season with a record of 1-2, have demonstrated noticeable improvements as they navigate through the early weeks. Their recent performance, highlighted by a commanding 30-0 victory against the Atlanta Falcons, showcased a robust effort from both their offense and defense.
As the Panthers set their sights on capturing their second win of the season during their upcoming clash in New England, they face an unfortunate setback. Quarterback Bryce Young received troubling news regarding his receiving corps. For the second consecutive week, wide receiver Xavier Legette has been declared out for Sunday’s game. This announcement comes from NFL insider Adam Schefter, who shared the update on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Legette’s absence may pose challenges for Young and the Panthers as they aim to build on their momentum. The team will have to adapt and find ways to maximize their offensive potential without one of their key playmakers. As they prepare for the matchup in New England, the Panthers remain focused on continuing their upward trajectory in what has been a promising, albeit rocky, start to the season.
