Story on CBS Sports.com says that the best fit for Debo Samuel,

0:07.9

Mike McDaniel's offense in Los Angeles with the Chargers with Justin Herbert.

0:14.7

Why wouldn't Debo Samuel be a good fit back here?

0:17.9

I think he would be.

0:19.7

Debo Samuel was pretty good for this team last year.

0:23.0

Second, most receptions in his career. Played 16 of the 18 games. He had 72 receptions. He had a season

0:31.1
