Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or Jermaine Burton

Friday, November 28, 12:20 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Curtis Samuel (elbow, knee) will not play on Sunday in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Samuel will miss a second straight game, and it's unclear if the 29-year-old will be able to return for a Week 14 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Samuel has not been on the fantasy radar at all in 2025, as he's caught only seven passes on nine targets for 81 yards and one touchdown on the year. He was unable to take advantage of second-year wideout Keon Coleman being benched for the last two games for disciplinary reasons. Samuel was off the fantasy radar in most leagues last year as well in Buffalo, as he had a weak 31-253-1 line in 14 regular-season games.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton has been suspended by the team for Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Buffalo Bills, according to Charlie Clifford of WLWT. The 2024 third-round pick has previously faced discipline for off-the-field issues, and his team-issued suspension is the latest example of Burton's personal choices costing him meaningful playing time. Burton has not played an offensive snap this season, and he did not travel with the team to Buffalo. As a rookie last year, he caught four of 14 targets for 107 yards. He should be left on waivers in all fantasy leagues.
