Wallpaper Wednesday: DeAndre Carter Mobile Wallpaper

It’s #WallpaperWednesday, and today we recognize and appreciate DeAndre Carter. Carter signed with the Washington Football Team this past offseason mostly as a kick returner.

Curtis Samuel, WR

The former Carolina Panther has agreed to a 3-year, $34.5 million deal with Washington, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Washington considered it a big need to get more downfield speed, and did so. Not only did they fill their number two receiver slot to pair with Terry McLaurin, they chose his friend and former teammate at Ohio State. Samuels can operate outside or in the slot, and offensive coordinator Scott Turner already knows how to tap into Samuel’s versatility. Grade: A
