The original estimate by Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, who first reported the injury, had Samuel missing 12 to 16 weeks. Samuel said he expects to be back in 10 weeks and in time for the start of the regular season.
Samuel caught 57 receptions for 802 receiving yards and three touchdowns through 15 regular-season games during his rookie season in 2019. He added 10 receptions for 127 yards through three playoff games, including a five-catch, 39-receiving-yard performance against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.
