Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or Chimere Dike

Monday, January 27, 2:23 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel caught a four-yard touchdown pass during Sunday's AFC Championship loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel's score came on his only reception, but he did have three total targets in the contest. The veteran occupied a depth role throughout the 2024 season, routinely operating behind players like Khalil Shakir, Amari Cooper, Keon Coleman, and Mack Hollins. He's under contract with Buffalo through 2026, but he could face some additional competition next year if the Bills pursue a wide receiver addition during free agency or the NFL Draft. As it stands, Samuel can be avoided in most fantasy football leagues.

According to Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan, fourth-round rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike can play all three wide receiver positions and will get an opportunity at each spot this offseason. Dike spent last season with the Florida Gators, racking up 42 receptions for 783 yards and two touchdowns. He began his collegiate career at Wisconsin and spent four seasons in Madison. The 22-year-old flashed his speed during the pre-draft process, posting a 4.34 forty-yard dash time at the 2025 NFL Combine. The Titans have lacked high-end speed at the wideout spot in recent years, and Dike could have a chance to earn significant playing time in a young and unproven wide receiver room. If so, he'll help rookie quarterback Cam Ward get his career started in Nashville. At worst, Dike should heavily contribute on special teams.
