Steelers Stock Watch – CB Asante Samuel Jr.

Player: CB Asante Samuel Jr.

Stock Value: Up

Reasoning: Asante Samuel Jr. got his first start with the Steelers on Monday, and his first interception with them as well. Now we wait to see if what comes next is a full-time starting job. Samuel started against the Dolphins due to James Pierre battling injury, but will he retain that position moving forward?

The Steelers are not paying Asante Samuel Jr. much this year, but they may have to come March. After all, he would have cashed in big this past March if not for a major, potentially career-threatening surgery.
