Samuel has averaged 13.9 fantasy points per game over 100 games and 8 seasons, with one top-12 finish (2021). The average hides two careers: 14.0 a game in his seven seasons with a starter's volume, 13.3 in the one without it.
So far in 2026 he is at 13.3 per game, up 1.5 from 2025. That is despite less volume (3.7 targets a game against 6.2), so efficiency and scoring are doing it. His quarterback this season has been Brock Purdy.

Our Take After Week 4
Through 3 games he's WR23 at 13.3 PPR points per game, against 11.8 over 16 games last season (WR25). He's running ahead of last season's pace.
The job is secure: he's the listed starter and one of the best at his position. The main risk is health, and Jordan Watkins is next on the depth chart if he misses time.
The next favorable matchups are the Commanders in Week 6 (1st against WRs) and the Falcons in Week 7 (3rd against WRs).
