Samuel returned to action in Week 4, playing 37.31% of the snaps while catching all four of his targets for 19 yards. He had a -1.3 average depth of target, which demonstrates that he'll be acting as the safety valve for Heinicke, soaking up the underneath targets and dump-offs. It's likely that we'll see an increased role for Samuel in his second game back. While it's still too early to trust him as anything more than a low-end WR4, make sure to pick him up if he's available in your league because he can make an impact down the stretch.
