Marshall likely won't compete for the WR1 spot in Carolina as he hasn't really gotten his feet wet in the NFL. Granted, he's only played two seasons, but he only caught 28 passes for 490 yards and a touchdown in 13 games last year and has found the endzone just once in two years. However, one stat that makes him stand out is his 17.5 yards per reception, the sixth-most in the league.
Based on his yards per reception, he averaged 2.75 points on each catch last season in PPR leagues. If Young somehow manages to target him just as often as Thielen and Chark, Marshall could be a dark horse breakout star but that seems unlikely given the circumstances, leaving Marshall as someone to keep an eye on as a waiver wire add once the season begins.

D.J. Chark Out for Week 1, Adam Thielen Questionable Carolina thin at receiver By: Mike Krueger | Fri Sep 8, 12:32 pm

| | D.J. Chark returned to practice as a limited participant Friday in his first day back since sustaining a hamstring injury, but he was ruled out for the season opener. Adam Thielen also returned to practice as a limited participant Friday after missing Thursday with an ankle injury. He's listed as questionable for Carolina's season opener, leaving the door open for him to play. (Panthers.com)
FFToday's Take: With Chark out and Thielen Questionable, the Panthers are a bit thin at receiver to start the season. We should see a lot of rookie Jonathan Mingo and Terrace Marshall Jr. (back) against the Falcons. Mingo is on the Flex radar for Week 1.
