The Washington Commanders will see changes in 2024, with new head coach Dan Quinn and the second overall pick in the draft. It is expected that the commanders will choose a quarterback, and if that happens, putting weapons around him will be crucial. Keeping older ones around may also be a smart decision. Curtis Samuel is one of the names to keep an eye out for. Other teams, such as the Chicago Bears, may be interested in him because they, too, are looking for weapons to surround their young quarterback, whether it’s Justin Fields or whoever they draft first.
Samuel is expected to sign a three-year, $34.6 million contract, according to Spotrac. He ended the 2023 season with 613 yards and four touchdowns. He’s only reached 656 yards once in his career, with 851 in 2020 with the Carolina Panthers. $34.6 million is a reasonable price considering his output, but there are better choices to consider as the commanders improve their offence. According to Garrett Podell of CBS Sports, Samuel might join the Panthers and play alongside former Carolina Panthers colleague D.J. Moore.
“The Chicago Bears could also reunite Samuel with former Panthers teammate D.J. Moore in an effort to add more playmaking to their downtrodden passing game.”
