The Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to trade wide receiver Laviska Shenault to the Carolina Panthers, Ian Rapoport reports.
A second round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Shenault struggled to find a consistent role with Jags during their tumultuous past two seasons. The Jaguars brought in Christian Kirk and Zay Jones in free agency this offseason to bolster their wide receiver room, so the Panthers may be able to offer the young receiver more playing time alongside D.J. Moore, Robby Anderson, and Terrace Marshall.
Shenault excels with the ball in his hands, and posted the third-best mark (6.3) in receptions per broken tackle among receivers in 2021. He could be a name to watch on fantasy football waiver wires this season if it appears that the Panthers have creative usage in mind for him.
