Is Xavier Legette Playing Today? Injury Updates for the Panthers WR in Week 9

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette is questionable to play in Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Legette suffered a hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but was limited in practice on Friday.

Legette's status for Sunday's game will likely be a game-time decision.

If Legette is unable to play, the Panthers will be without their leading receiver. Legette has 36 catches for 442 yards and three touchdowns this season.

The Panthers will also be without wide receiver Curtis Samuel, who is on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.

Samuel is expected to miss the rest of the season. The Panthers will likely start DJ Moore and Robby Anderson at wide receiver against the Buccaneers.
