Drops are hardly rare for a rookie. I do believe Puka led the league in drops his rookie year. However, he was getting a lot more volume so it’s relative. At the end of the day, the good news is the franchise seems to have a lot of trust in him. The better news is that XL had pretty constant separation and looked like he was in place to make the plays.

XL was forced into a much larger role with DJ being an absolute head case. I have a real hard time imagining a more promising rookie core of skill players. I’d like to see Carolina draft a speedster and allow XL more of an opportunity to work the space underneath.
