Curtis Samuel Won't Play on Monday Night Against Falcons

Monday, October 13, 6:21 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel (neck, ribs) is officially inactive for the Monday night contest on the road against the Atlanta Falcons, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. In addition to Samuel, the Bills' offense will be missing tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique) against what has been a much-improved Atlanta defense so far in 2025. The 29-year-old Samuel hasn't been on the fantasy radar to begin with, but his absence on Monday means less depth in the wideout corps for Buffalo behind Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer. The Bills have their bye coming in Week 7, so hopefully Samuel will be ready to go for a Week 8 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Samuel has only been active for two games so far in 2025 and has caught three of his four targets for 35 yards and one touchdown. He had just one TD in 14 games a year ago for Buffalo and should remain on the waiver wire.

Tory Horton Likely to Receive Low Volume Once Again in Week 7

Friday, October 17, 8:59 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton has been an exciting rookie to watch in 2025. He has scored four touchdowns in six games, and he is a big play waiting to happen. Unfortunately, his role in the offense is inconsistent. The Seahawks matchup with the Houston Texans in Week 7. Houston is the No. 2 team against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. Simply, this defense is elite and is very adept at shutting down opposing passing games. Additionally, Houston is not playing well on the offensive side of the ball this season. They are unlikely to put pressure on Seattle to air it out on Monday night. As such, Horton's number may not be called often. Horton has yet to play more than 49% of the snaps this season. He is firmly the No. 3 wide receiver in Seattle's offense. Seattle will play against several solid offenses following their Week 8 bye. Horton may be able to produce then, but he should remain a bench stash in Week 7.
