Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or Donovan Peoples-Jones

Thursday, September 28, 5:38 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel could be in play for desperate teams in Week 4. Washington is taking on the Philadelphia Eagles on the road as 8.5-point underdogs. With the Commanders projected to be playing from behind, they may have to heavily rely on the passing game to stay within reach. With that in mind, Samuel could be considered as a sneaky fill-in. He doesn't hold much value as an option for typical rosters, but he offers intrigue as a volume-based play in extremely deep leagues. Start him as a last-resort option in Week 4.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones did very little in the Week 2 loss to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night, catching just one of his four targets for a seven-yard gain. There was a chance that Peoples-Jones was going to have a big role in this one with Amari Cooper questionable to play due to a groin injury, but Cooper was active and led the Browns with seven receptions on 10 targets for 90 yards in the 26-22 loss. DPJ did play a team-high 88.1 percent of the offensive snaps, but he just wasn't targeted much by a struggling Deshaun Watson. So far, Cooper and Elijah Moore have been Watson's favorite targets, with People-Jones catching only two passes for 19 yards through the season's first two weeks.
