Carolina Panthers first-round draft pick Xavier Legette sustained a lower leg injury and exited practice on Sunday morning.
Canales said Legette’s injury is not related to the hamstring issue that caused the rookie to miss time during organized team activities.
“It’s something in his lower leg,” Panthers head coach Dave Canales said. “I don’t want to get into any details. We’re just going to evaluate him this afternoon as a precaution, and then we’ll go from there. I’ll have more information.”
The Panthers traded with the Buffalo Bills to obtain the 32nd pick of the 2024 NFL Draft and select Legette out of South Carolina.
In five seasons, he caught 113 passes for 1,678 yards and 12 touchdowns for the Gamecocks. He had a career-best season in 2023 with 71 receptions for 1,255 yards and seven scores.
