Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or Jameson Williams

Wednesday, July 30, 7:27 PM

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane said on Sirius XM on Tuesday that wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring) could be back "sooner rather than later," while saying that receiver Elijah Moore (leg) could be back as soon as Thursday or Friday. Moore has been out since Sunday with minor leg soreness, but he should be back on the field soon as he competes for a depth role in his first year in Buffalo. The 25-year-old is off the fantasy radar for now in most leagues as he competes for the No. 4 role behind Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer. Barring injuries, the 25-year-old former second-rounder by the New York Jets in 2021 will play a complementary role for the Bills offense. Moore had a career-high five touchdowns in his rookie season in 2021 but hasn't scored more than two times in three seasons since.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has noticed new offensive coordinator John Morton's aggressiveness in his approach to taking deep shots down the field, and it's one of the major areas that Williams thinks he has improved since a year ago, writes ESPN's Eric Woodyard. "My route running -- coach Johnny Mo is letting me run more routes," Williams said. "I knew I could run more routes, but he's putting me in position to run more routes so I'm getting better with cuts and angles and how to run this route and that route, so I would say I'm more polished in my route game." There is a lot of pressure on Morton after Detroit's offense averaged 29 points per game over the last three seasons under Ben Johnson, who is now in Chicago. Williams broke out in 2024, but there are a lot of mouth to feed in this offense, making him a boom/bust WR2/3 target in fantasy.
