In one of the season’s most anticipated pre-draft events, the Jacksonville Jaguars played host to a standout wide receiver during their top-30 visit sessions.

As reported by Justin Melo of The Draft Network, South Carolina’s Xavier Legette was among the notable prospects to meet with the Jaguars ahead of the draft. With the Jaguars eyeing reinforcements in the wide receiver department, Legette emerges as a potential target with the 48th overall pick.

At 23 years old, Legette boasts a journey marked by steady progress and notable achievements on the field. From his early career contributions to his breakout performances in recent seasons, Legette has consistently showcased his skills and versatility. His impressive 2023 campaign, in particular, earned him recognition with Second-Team All-SEC honors.

While the Jaguars recently secured wide receiver Gabe Davis through free agency, speculation abounds regarding their continued interest in top-tier receiver prospects. Should they miss out on the coveted names, the Jaguars remain open to selecting a pass-catching talent either in the early or later rounds of the draft.

Speaking on the depth of this year’s wide receiver class, Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke expressed optimism about the diverse pool of talent available. With prospects ranging from elite prospects to hidden gems, Baalke emphasized the potential impact of receivers across all stages of the draft.
