Panthers’ First-Round Receiver Xavier Legette Sidelined from Minicamp with Hamstring Injury; Coach David Canales Prioritizing Safety and Health in His Return to the Field

Panthers’ first-round receiver Xavier Legette is currently sidelined from minicamp due to a lingering hamstring injury. The team is taking a cautious approach to ensure Legette’s safe return to the field, with coach David Canales reassuring that the injury is not worse than initially thought. Despite missing most of the organized team activities, Canales believes that focusing on getting Legette back to full health for training camp is the right decision to make.

Canales emphasized the importance of not rushing Legette back too soon, especially with the start of training camp approaching. He mentioned that if there was a game this week, Legette would be practicing, but due to the timing, they are being extra cautious. Canales believes that getting Legette back on the field as soon as possible while also ensuring his safety is crucial for both him and the team.

During his time at the University of South Carolina last season, Legette had an impressive record of 71 catches for 1,255 yards and seven touchdowns. Panthers fans are hopeful that Legette’s talent and performance will continue to shine once he is back on the field. They eagerly await his return and are looking forward to seeing what he can do in his first season with the Panthers.
