The Washington Commanders believe they have something special on their hands with Deebo Samuel Sr., and the veteran wide receiver is already making his presence felt in the best possible way.
Samuel was cast aside by the San Francisco 49ers for nothing more than a fifth-round selection this offseason. Adam Peters wasn't ready to throw in the towel on his career, bringing him to the Commanders in a low-risk, high-reward transaction that could have significant benefits attached.
Criticism around his focus, attitude, and conditioning was rife after the trade became official.
