Samuel faces soft Chris Johnson coverage; top waiver add with rising route share.

Samuel was the top waiver wire add this week after an inspired performance against the Rams and injuries to other 49ers receivers. He was targeted on 22.1% of his routes and managed 0.42 fantasy points per route run on a 74.1% route participation rate, which the source expects to increase this week. Samuel faces Chris Johnson in Week 2, who was targeted on a mammoth 37% of routes run against him (second only to Jonas Sanker at 42%) and allowed 0.40 fantasy points per route run. Fantasy managers who drafted or added Samuel should be excited about this matchup.
