Curtis Samuel's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel is coming off a game where he saw a season-high eight targets last week. The 28-year-old figures to once again see an increased workload heading into the Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bills are without wideout Keon Coleman (wrist) and Amari Cooper (wrist) is questionable to suit up. The absence of both receivers should mean plenty of targets for Samuel on Sunday. Samuel hasn't done much this season, but his 89 percent snap count does give him more appeal. Fantasy managers should consider Samuel a low-end streaming option for Week 11.

Buffalo Bills wide receivers Curtis Samuel (pectoral) and Mack Hollins (shoulder) were both wearing non-contact jerseys at Thursday's practice session. Hollins was listed as a full participant on Wednesday, so this would represent a downgrade for him. Samuel returned in the Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins after missing Week 8, but he failed to catch his only target with Amari Cooper (wrist) out and has gone without a catch in each of his last two games. Rookie Keon Coleman (wrist) might miss multiple weeks, but even with Buffalo's receivers beat up, Samuel isn't an attractive starting fantasy lineup option. Hollins had gone without a catch in each of his last two games before bringing in all five of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Week 9. If Cooper is out again this weekend, Hollins will be a touchdown-dependent WR4/flex option, at best, in deeper leagues.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel (pectoral) is officially active for Week 9 against the Miami Dolphins. He had been listed as questionable after logging three limited practices in a row. The veteran has been a reduced contributor within the Buffalo offense this season, catching just 12 passes for 92 yards. He's still searching for his first touchdown of the year. There's a chance that Samuel could get extra opportunities this week with Amari Cooper (wrist) out, but he's still behind Dalton Kincaid, Khalil Shakir, and Keon Coleman in the pecking order.
