STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Samuel's elite season stats fade against Seattle's two-high coverage; expect downside this week.

Samuel is the WR16 in fantasy points per game with 14.2% target share, 2.31 YPRR, five red zone targets, and touchdowns in three of four games; however, he faces Seattle's two-high coverage (ninth-highest rate at 59.1%), where his efficiency has cratered to 15% TPRR and 1.11 YPRR this season. Seattle has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per target and seventh-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter receivers, making this a difficult matchup despite his strong season-long production.
