The conversion, not only an impressive catch, moved the chains and allowed the Panthers to kneel out the rest of the clock.
“I think just in that situation, they brought a pressure and we had him one-on-one,” explained Dalton. “I told him right before that last drive, ‘Hey you’re going to make a play that’s going to help us win this game.’ So, in that moment, I gave him the opportunity and he made a great play and we were able to seal it at the end.”
As for Legette’s career day, the receiver isn’t putting much heed behind the numbers. To his mind, there haven’t been enough big days to celebrate this one yet.
“No, no,” Legette shook his head when asked if he celebrated the accomplishment. “I want to stack more games like that. I don’t want to get too high and I ain’t going to be too low about it either. I mean, I want to keep it even.”
