Curtis Samuel (illness) returns to Washington practice, playing Sunday
Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel (illness) will play in Sunday's Week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans.
What It Means:
Samuel missed the first two practices of the week, but he returned on Friday and is good to go for Sunday's matchup. Jahan Dotson (hamstring) has been ruled out, so Samuel should see an uptick in routes and targets. Last week, Samuel didn't record a rush attempt for the first time this season and he had season-lows in targets (7), catches (4), and yards (38).
Samuel is the WR37 in numberFire's Week 5 PPR rankings and our models project him for 7.8 offensive opportunities with 53.3 yards from scrimmage on Sunday. Through four games, the Titans have the third-worst pass defense in our advanced team rankings and they are allowing the fourth-most FanDuel points per game to the wide receiver position.
