Jalen Coker has Been the Best Offensive Performer for Panthers at OTAs
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker is having a "strong offseason program" and has "arguably been the most consistent offensive performer in front of media during OTAs and minicamp so far," according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. The third-year wideout is making routine plays and "getting open with relative ease." The 24-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Holy Cross has played in only 22 games due to injuries in his first two years in the NFL, but when on the field, he's been a key contributor for quarterback Bryce Young, catching a total of 65 passes on 89 targets for 872 yards (13.4 yards per catch) and five touchdowns. Last year's first-rounder, Tetairoa McMillan, is the Panthers' clear WR1, but Coker is making a strong case to be the WR2, even with Xavier Legette still in town. The 6-foot-3, 213-pounder has the size, strength, leaping ability, and strong hands to excel all over the field. If he can stay on the field all year, Coker has true breakout potential, and he won't cost much on draft day. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 50 fantasy WR for 2026.
