Cowboys Eye Former Chargers CB Samuel Jr.
12 Feb
Summary
- Asante Samuel Jr. is a notable free agent after a career marred by injury.
- He played 10 games over the last two seasons due to a shoulder injury.
- The Dallas Cowboys are predicted to be a potential landing spot.

Asante Samuel Jr., formerly a second-round pick for the Los Angeles Chargers, is now a notable free agent on the market. The 26-year-old cornerback's career has been significantly impacted by injuries, particularly a shoulder issue that limited him to just 10 games over the past two seasons. However, a late-season stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers showed promise, reigniting interest in his potential.
Greg Auman of Fox Sports has identified Samuel Jr. as the 95th-ranked free agent. Auman projects him as a tempting reclamation project for the Dallas Cowboys, possibly reuniting him with Derrick Ansley, his former Chargers position coach. This reunion could be a significant factor in his decision.
The Chargers, meanwhile, appear set at the cornerback position with recent signings and developing talent, making Samuel Jr.'s departure less impactful for them. His situation remains a point of interest for fans as the offseason unfolds.
