Tuesday was just the first day of OTAs, the beginning of competition and full-speed work, so there is much still to determine with how Legette's offseason work has translated to this year. Bryce Young targeted Legette several times during drill work and 7-on-7 Tuesday, including one into double coverage when Legette timed the ball perfectly to make a grab that sent the sideline into a frenzy.
"I think you just see the comfortability, that Year 1 and Year 2, again, second year in the system, understanding how the league is, him being able to be healthy, to have an off-season to get through all this stuff, to come back healthy and he put a lot of work in to do that in the offseason that obviously no one sees," Young bragged when discussing Legette.
"But if you're around here and you're around him, you know the work he put in, so just seeing the experience kind of comes to play, and it definitely shows in the confidence, in the production, in practice, taking a lot more of a leadership role too in the wide receiver room. Again, a lot of young guys that are trying to come in and learn the system, and now, Year 2, he's doing a lot of directing out there, you know, we have different formations or different routes. You hear him out there communicating, 'Hey, I'm on, I got this. Hey, I'm off, you're off, you're here. So, you know, you just see him jumping into that role."
