While another rookie receiver made headlines Elsewhere on Sunday, Carolina Panthers wideout Xavier Legette took a shot at himself.
Albeit a brave and hard-fought performance from yesterday The Kansas City Chiefs included some of the Panthers' follies – including this one . . .
Xavier Legette MUST catch this…
This is a DOT by Bryce Young. There's no better way to throw it.

The drop wiped out a gain of about 33 yards that could have been gained on a crucial drive late in the fourth quarter. But luckily, Legette's mistake didn't stop Young and the Panthers from eventually reaching the end zone and clinching the contest.
Still, Legette told reporters Monday how he took responsibility for the missed opportunity. . .
Xavier Legette texted Bryce Young last night after he dropped the pass on the sideline in the fourth quarter. He apologized to his quarterback and added, “It doesn’t get much better than that.”
