Xavier Legette fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Xavier Legette for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR49
ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has had a massive increase in fantasy football value in the past few weeks. He has played well since the Panthers benched Bryce Young for Andy Dalton. Furthermore, the rookie’s role on offense has expanded with Adam Thielen missing time because of a hamstring injury.
Unfortunately, Legette suffered a shoulder injury in the Week 5 loss to the Chicago Bears, totaling only one reception for eight receiving yards and 1.3 half-point PPR fantasy points before getting hurt. Thankfully, the former South Carolina star says he’s good to go for Sunday’s NFC South matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Legette had six receptions on 10 targets for 66 receiving yards, a touchdown, and 16.6 fantasy points in his last healthy game. Hopefully, he can have a similar performance this week.
The Falcons had no answer for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers passing attack in Week 5, surrendering 130 receiving yards, three touchdowns, and 36.7 fantasy points to their wide receiver core.
