Chiefs urged to sign Deebo Samuel before 2026 NFL season
In a recent article, ESPN's Aaron Schatz advocated for the Chiefs to sign former First Team All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel, who remains unsigned in free agency at this point in time.
"It would be good for the Chiefs to find another strong slot target who can be insurance for [Rashee] Rice and can provide wide receiver depth on the outside," Schatz wrote.
"Enter veteran Samuel. He had a bit of an off 2025 season with a career-low 10.1 yards per reception with the Commanders, but he still managed to gain 727 receiving yards with five touchdowns. At age 30, there's probably still something left in the tank, and his ability to also take carries from the backfield makes him extra fun for Reid to play with in his game-planning."
