Dylan Sampson caught 8 passes and finished as a top-10 RB. He instantly became a top waiver add, only to see Quinshon Judkins return in Week 2. Over the next 12 games that Sampson played with Judkins active, Sampson averaged 4.3 touches and was returned to waiver wires as quickly as he was snatched up.

Sampson's top-10 Week 1 finish didn't survive Judkins' return in Week 2.

Matthew Berry cites Sampson as a cautionary tale about waiver wire volatility: Sampson caught 8 passes and finished as a top-10 RB in Week 1 2025, instantly becoming a top waiver add, but saw Quinshon Judkins return in Week 2; over the next 12 games with Judkins active, Sampson averaged 4.3 touches and was returned to waiver wires as quickly as he was snatched up. The lesson: Week 1 breakout does not guarantee sustained role.
