Who Should I Start? Nick Bellore or Curtis Samuel

Sunday, March 10, 2:29 PM

The Seattle Seahawks are releasing linebacker/fullback Nick Bellore ahead of 2024 free agency, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The 34-year-old team captain made the 2020 and 2023 Pro Bowl rosters for his work on special teams, and he has been with the organization since 2019. He will now hit free agency after compiling 65 tackles in five seasons with Seattle. He spent eight seasons with the New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers, and Detroit Lions. The move saves the Seahawks $2.85 million on the cap.

The Buffalo Bills signed free-agent wide receiver Curtis Samuel to a three-year, $24 million deal on Thursday that includes $15 million guaranteed. The deal is worth a maximum of $30 million. Since seeing Gabe Davis depart for the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency earlier this week, the Bills have added Mack Hollins and Samuel as receiver additions for quarterback Josh Allen. Samuel, 27, spent the last three seasons with the Washington Commanders, combining for 132 catches on 192 targets for 1,296 yards and eight touchdowns in 38 games (26 starts). He will provide some much-needed receiving depth in Buffalo behind Stefon Diggs, Khalil Shakir and tight end Dalton Kincaid, but Samuel doesn't figure to be much more than a WR3/flex option in deeper fantasy leagues on a weekly basis in 2024.
