Samori Toure Fantasy

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Samori Toure was active for the first time in his career in the Week 7 loss to the Washington Commanders with rookie Christian Watson (hamstring) and Randall Cobb (ankle) out with injuries. Toure played 35 percent of the offensive snaps and was targeted just one time, catching it for a four-yard gain. He was well behind Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins rookie Romeo Doubs in snaps in the receiving corps and could go back to being a healthy scratch in the Sunday night tilt against the Buffalo Bills next weekend if Watson is able to return for that game. The 24-year-old should only be stashed in dynasty/keeper leagues at this time.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Samori Toure caught six of eight targets for 83 yards during Thursday's 17-10 preseason loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The seventh-round rookie fell one yard shy of a touchdown deep into the second quarter of the game. Toure recorded one target throughout the first two preseason games but showcased his skills as a solid route runner and a verticle threat Thursday, both of which scouts praised him for during the draft process. The former Nebraska alum will likely latch on to the Packers practice squad. Toure should only be monitored in dynasty leagues if he is called up due to a high number of injuries at the wide receiver position.
