Samuel was held out of Wednesday's practice after feeling a "twinge" in his groin, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

The injury is seemingly minor, considering Samuel was out on the field to observe practice and even did some work on the side, according to Keim. Samuel should be the No. 2 wide receiver in Washington this season, a step up from No. 3 status in his final year with the Panthers. Despite being behind Robby Anderson and DJ Moore in the pecking order in Carolina, Samuel delivered his best season yet in 2020 with 1,051 total yards and five touchdowns in 15 games. He'll celebrate his 25th birthday Aug. 11, one day before Washington's preseason opener at New England.
