Deebo Samuel Sr. Week 16 Outlook - Eagles at Commanders

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 19th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Samuel has become a must-sit player weekly. He hasn't finished with double-digit fantasy points or more than 22 receiving yards since Week 10 and has only one red zone target since Week 12. Since Week 10, Miami has utilized two high at the seventh-highest rate (57.3%). Since Week 10, against two high, Samuel has had a 17.6% target share with only 0.82 YPRR and an 18.5% first-read share. The Dolphins' secondary has been vulnerable, but I don't think that Samuel can take advantage of it at this juncture. Since Week 10, Miami has allowed the 11th-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers.
