“(Beane) had told me about it. I didn’t really know the extent of as far as everybody that was involved in it, but I guess now it makes sense I’m here,” Samuel laughed.
Beane isn’t the only one that has a prior connection to the new wide receiver. Samuel’s most productive season came in 2020 with the Panthers when current Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady was Carolina’s offensive coordinator. Samuel totaled 77 catches, 851 receiving yards and three touchdowns that season.
Samuel believes that Brady has what it takes to be a successful offensive coordinator because he finds creative ways to maximize each player’s skill set.
“Definitely felt like he’s a good leader,” Samuel said of Brady. “Somebody you can put your trust in just because I’ve seen it, I’ve seen him put a lot of guys in great situations. He gets the most out of his players.”
Samuel will also get to play with the best quarterback he’s had in his eight-year career. During his media availability, Samuel revealed that Josh Allen has already reached out to express his excitement of playing together.
“I watched (Allen) last year when I didn’t have games or when the games were on TV I watched him. Exciting quarterback, tough, hard-nosed. But my job is just to make the game as easy as possible for him.”
