Samori Toure
WR - Chicago Bears
48°Availability
The Bears have signed WR Samori Toure to their practice squad.
Fantasy Impact
Toure was released by Green Bay and will now join the division rival in Chicago. Considering the Bears have solid depth at wide receiver, Toure will likely have a tough time cracking the roster on game day.
The Packers have released WR Samori Toure.
Fantasy Impact
Toure is the odd man out of tough competition for depth spots at wide receiver. The former seventh-round pick could join the practice squad if he does not receive any interest from teams around the league.
Despite the Green Bay Packers' heart-wrenching 25-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, 25-year-old wide receiver Samori Toure had a relatively quiet game.
Fantasy Impact
Toure was targeted twice, managing to reel in just one of those passes for a modest gain of 6 yards. This performance brings his season totals to 3 receptions on 5 targets for 24 yards, still without finding the end zone. Toure's fantasy impact remains minimal. His most notable play came in the third quarter when he made a 6-yard catch, but an illegal formation penalty in the fourth quarter marred his performance. Looking ahead to Week 3, Toure and the Packers will face off against the New Orleans Saints, where he'll look to make a more significant impact.
Packers WR Samori Toure caught two of his three targets for 18 yards in a Week 1 win over the Bears.
Fantasy Impact
Toure is already off to a great start when you look at his 2022 numbers, which saw the 25-year-old log five receptions in 11 games. Toure will likely not have much fantasy value this season, so fantasy managers can confidently leave him on the waiver wire.
Samori Toure had two catches for 34 yards on four targets in the 15-9 loss to the Lions. He had a shot at a long touchdown but the pass was slightly underthrown and tipped away by the defender at the last second.
Fantasy Impact
Toure has seen four targets in back-to-back games and appears to be the top deep threat for the Packers right now. The rookie wideout may need to get even more involved with both Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson leaving this game due to injury. The Packers will be at home to face the Cowboys in Week 10.
