Xavier Legette may be getting some help from one of the biggest Carolina Panthers fans on the planet.

Chad Ochocinco spoke with team beat reporter Sheena Quick from Super Bowl LX's "Radio Row" on Friday. And when discussing the team's wideouts, he offered up an encouraging outlook for the struggling Legette.

"He's comin' to see me in the offseason. He'll be alright. I guarantee you, he gonna be alright," Ochocinco told Quick. "He's special. He just needs someone to unlock the specialty, that I can see from far away."


Hope it helps.  By the way...when did Chad O become a Panther fan? Did I miss something?

He got outside help last year, but that didn’t help balls thrown at his feet-

With that being said, I saw a video with Brady talking about taking care of receivers, sometimes I wonder if maybe Bryce is doing it on purpose to make make it where there’s only one play on the ball, and XL is just not going after it- we don’t have that issue with Coker and Tmac

Correct …. There are multiple issues here (IMO). I suspect that BY has little experience throwing to receivers like Legette. Bryce is consistently late with the ball and behind Legette. So low throws, late in the route, behind the receiver. Then everyone blames Legette. Legette is big and FAST. He’s definitely faster than McMillan and Coker. That’s definitely a problem for Bryce, who can’t seem to adjust to a BIG guy moving FAST. 

So Ocho-Cinco is going to help Legette.?? Not sure it’s going to help. —— Who’s gonna help Bryce.??

I hope against all hope that he gets help and that he develops some chemistry with Bryce Young.

A couple of truths here:

1. You can't catch uncatchable balls

2. You can't catch balls that aren't throw towards you.

3. (I know, I said a couple) Like him or not, XL was great at blocking this season. Look back at the year in review and you'll see him blocking all over the place.
