Samuel caught two of four targets for 28 yards and rushed four times for 12 yards in Monday's 32-21 win over Philadelphia.

Samuel's biggest contribution hardly registered in the box score, as it was only a one-yard run, but converted a fourth-and-1 deep in Eagles territory late in the first half. Washington went on to score a touchdown on that drive to take a 17-14 lead that the team never relinquished. This was the third consecutive week in which Samuel tied his season low with four targets after he had been thrown to at least eight times in five of the first seven games. While his rushing opportunities offer a nice bonus, Samuel does most of his damage through the air, and he'll look to carve out a larger role in that regard against the Texans in Week 11.
