Deebo Samuel Sr. Fantasy Stats

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. bounced back with one of his best performances of the season in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins, hauling in seven of his eight targets for 74 yards and a touchdown, his most yards in a game since Week 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Samuel has now scored in back-to-back weeks, but faces a tough matchup out of Washington's Week 12 bye against a stingy Denver Broncos defense. The former San Francisco 49er will have more competition for targets in Week 13 with No. 1 wideout Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) returning from a multi-game absence, as well as Treyon Burks (finger) after missing Week 11 against Miami. Samuel has a safe floor for receptions due to his usage on manufactured touches, recording at least four receptions in eight of 10 games played this season. He ranks as more of a WR3 in Week 13 against a Denver defense that has allowed the fewest PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers this season.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. caught seven of his eight targets for 74 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Miami Dolphins in Madrid. He also logged a three-yard rush. Samuel became the first NFL player to ever score a touchdown in Madrid as the league wrapped up its 2025 international series. The 29-year-old has proven to be a valuable addition for the Commanders, stepping up as the team's No. 1 receiver with Terry McLaurin (quad) enduring an extended absence. Samuel continued to showcase his rapport with Marcus Mariota on Sunday, and he'll remain a high-end WR2 option on the other side of Washington's Week 12 bye.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. hasn't been as productive in recent weeks after a strong first five games of the season. Samuel recorded 30 receptions for 300 yards and three touchdowns along with seven carries for 46 yards and another touchdown over the first five weeks, ranking as the WR7 in total PPR points (88.6). Since then, Samuel has just 16 catches for 96 yards and one touchdown on 22 targets and three carries for three yards in four games, ranking as the WR56 in that span. The veteran wideout should still be in line for a busy day on Sunday against a vulnerable Miami Dolphins defense, with most of Washington's wide receivers banged up. Samuel ranks as RotoBaller's WR20 for the first-ever NFL game in Madrid, Spain.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has had a few down weeks after a hot start to the season. Samuel has posted just 12 catches for 67 yards on 17 targets to go with three carries for three yards over his past three games. The veteran missed Washington's Week 7 matchup in Dallas due to a heel injury, which could be impacting his performance. Samuel will be without second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) for a few weeks, which will likely hurt Samuel's production a bit. In Marcus Mariota's three starts, Samuel has still been solid and leads the team in targets (15) and receptions (11), but is third in receiving yards (94) and has scored one touchdown. Samuel has a solid matchup in Week 10 against a Lions defense that has allowed the sixth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers. Samuel ranks as RotoBaller's WR21 in PPR leagues for Sunday.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has turned in two of his quietest performances of the season over his last two games. Samuel missed Week 7 against the Cowboys due to a heel injury, but he's totaled just seven catches for 26 yards on 11 targets in Weeks 6 and 8 as he still seems to be impacted by the injury. The 29-year-old will hope to return to his early-season form on Sunday Night Football against the Seahawks, as Washington will again be without top wideout Terry McLaurin after he re-aggravated his quadriceps injury during their Week 8 loss at the Chiefs. Samuel has averaged 16.4 PPR points per game without McLaurin in the lineup, compared to 12.3 with him, but he'll face a tough Seattle defense getting top cornerback Devon Witherspoon back in action. The former San Francisco 49er wideout will face a familiar division rival he knows well, averaging 110.4 total yards per game with seven total touchdowns in eight career games against the Seahawks, including a three-catch, 102-yard, one touchdown performance in a Week 6 primetime matchup against them last season.

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said that wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel), who has been dealing with a heel injury, "looked like he was back to himself this week," according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. Samuel did not have any limitations on him in practice this week and is good to go for the Week 9 primetime game on Sunday night versus the visiting Seattle Seahawks. The 29-year-old didn't play in Week 7 due to his heel injury, and he's been disappointing in his last two games, catching seven of his 11 targets for only 26 yards and no touchdowns. Samuel had back-to-back weeks with touchdowns before that stretch, and he could be back to those levels this weekend at closer to 100% health, with Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) missing his fifth game of the year. On volume alone, Samuel should be considered a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 in fantasy in Week 9.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has been cleared from the injury report ahead of Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel missed only one game due to the heel injury that he's been managing for a few weeks, and will be joined by fellow wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who returns from a four-game absence because of a quadriceps injury. Samuel has enjoyed an outstanding bounce-back season with Washington through six games, catching 34 of his 43 targets for 315 yards and three touchdowns, and has added eight rushes for 45 yards and another score on the ground. McLaurin's return could take away a few targets, but Samuel has operated as the focal point of the passing attack in his absence. He's shown more downfield ability this year and continues to be one of the best YAC threats in the league. RotoBaller ranks him as WR25 in PPR leagues for Week 8 against a Chiefs defense that has allowed the second-fewest PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) is "good to go" for his team's Week 8 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Samuel Sr. was sidelined in Week 7 due to a heel injury. Across six games so far this season, the 29-year-old has recorded 34 catches for 315 yards and three touchdowns on 43 targets. Samuel Sr. has been Washington's top option in the passing game for much of 2025, although that may change with Commanders wideout Terry McLaurin (quad) also set to return in Week 8 after missing the team's last four games due to a quad injury. Still, Samuel Sr. could see close to double-digit touches against Kansas City. He profiles as a low-end fantasy WR2 in Week 8.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) was seen practicing ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel missed last week's game due to a heel bruise, but after fully participating in practice all week, he's expected to suit up in Week 8. With Terry McLaurin also trending toward a return, the Commanders' receiving corps will be back at full strength for the first time since Week 3. However, they'll face a tough test against a Chiefs defense that has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Samuel remains a fantasy starter, but he carries added risk due to the difficult matchup and McLaurin's likely return, which could impact his target share.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) was able to get through a full practice session on Friday. This marks back-to-back days that Samuel has been able to get through practice without any issues. All signs are pointing to Samuel being active for the Monday night matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel sat out of last week's game, but should be ready to go in Week 8. His fantasy value figures to take a hit with Jayden Daniels (hamstring) sidelined. However, Samuel should still be able to help fantasy value with Marcus Mariota under center. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Saturday for official word on his status.
