Adam Thielen

This was expected after head coach Dave Canales told reporters on Monday Legette was likely to miss Week 16. The first-round rookie did not practice this week and may be forced to miss Week 17 as well. He can be cut in all redraft formats. Fellow wide receivers Jalen Coker and David Moore are listed as questionable. Expect plenty of targets for Adam Thielen this week.

Panthers WR Xavier Legette is considered "week-to-week" with the groin injury that knocked him out of the Week 15 loss to the Cowboys and is not expected to play vs. the Cardinals this weekend, HC Dave Canales said. It sounds like Legette might miss more than just one game. He's droppable from redraft rosters. Legette's absence should put WR Jalen Coker back in a full-time role, alongside WRs Adam Thielen and David Moore.

Thielen led the Panthers with a 25 percent target share. He also paced the team in receptions while falling behind Jalen Coker in yards. Bryce Young had no issues feeding him the ball, sometimes to his own detriment. Thielen was the intended target on both of Young's interceptions. One was a window too tight for a completion while the other was a poorly-thrown deep shot. While that's disastrous for the Panthers, it's hard for fantasy managers to complain about Thielen's target-dominating role. He should rebound as a WR2/3 for his Week 16 matchup with the Cardinals.

WR Adam Thielen racked up 9 receptions for 102 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. The numbers look even better when you check his shares of the Carolina team totals. Thielen's 11 targets constituted 32.4% of QB Bryce Young's total pass attempts. He also commanded 47.4% of the team's total receptions and 53.4% of Panthers receiving yards.

Thielen caught nine of 11 targets for 102 yards in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Eagles.
