2018 Fantasy Outlook
Samuel was drafted in the second round last year as a utility player capable of adding devastating speed to the Panthers offense. However, injuries largely derailed his rookie campaign, leaving him in need of proving himself again this time around. With increased competition at wide receiver, Samuel may be restricted to certain packages that highlight his ability in space. Read Past Outlooks

September 19, 2018
Samuel (chest) is cleared to participate in limited workouts Wednesday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Samuel did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to illness, but should begin practicing in limited fashion in the near future. Still recovering from a procedure undergone to address an irregular heartbeat, Samuel seems unlikely to suit up against the Bengals on Sunday. Whenever he is healthy, the 2017 second-rounder is in line to play a minor role in the Panthers' offense.

2017 Fantasy Outlook
The Panthers' second round pick, Samuel finds himself in an interesting spot. While the team isn't deep at WR -- No. 1 option Kelvin Benjamin showed up to offseason activities in sub-optimal condition, and ostensible No. 2 Devin Funchess has been inconsistent -- it also drafted RB Christian McCaffrey in the first round, and the two have somewhat overlapping skill sets. At 5-11, 197, Samuel, is blazingly fast -- 4.31 40 -- and athletic -- 37-inch vertical and 133-inch broad jump. As such, he's dangerous with the ball in his hands, and a threat as a ballcarrier or receiver. Of course, much of that description could apply to McCaffery, so Samuel figures to be used mostly as a slot receiver. Don't expect much red-zone work, either -- tight end Greg Olsen and the 6-5 Benjamin are likely to dominate the targets down there.
