Terrace Marshall Jr. 2023 NFL Player Outlook: Has Breakout Potential In Rebuilding Offense
2 years agoThe Carolina Panthers traded away wide receiver DJ Moore this offseason, opening up more opportunities for Terrace Marshall Jr. in the offense. It's been a disappointing start to Marshall's career since being drafted in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft. In his first two NFL seasons, he has just 45 catches for 628 yards and one touchdown. Last season though, Marshall showcased some breakthrough moments -- a four-catch, 87-yard game in Week 8 and a 76-yard day in Week 11. However, the 22-year-old wideout has yet to be able to put it all together. 2023 could be a breakout year for Marshall, with no clear WR1 in Carolina. Adam Thielen has never been a WR1 in his career, and D.J. Chark is more of a WR2 than the No. 1 option in an offense. That gives Marshall a chance to shine in his third season in Carolina. He'll face target competition with Thielen, Chark, Laviska Shenault Jr., and newly selected rookie Jonathan Mingo. Marshall has the talent to stay involved in the Panthers' offense but is more of a late-round flier in deep-league formats. He's ranked 223rd overall on RotoBaller.
