Sammie Coates shows off 'healed' finger

In Week 5 of the 2016 season, Coates reeled in six receptions for 139 yards and 2twotouchdowns. He also managed to snap his index finger, which pretty much lead to the end of his production. Coates decided against surgery to repair the finger and the result looks fairly gruesome. Only time will tell if Sammie will get back on track with his newly disfigured finger.

Fantasy Impact:

After Week 5, Coates was limited to two receptions for 14 yards the remainder of the year. After calling up Cobi Hamilton from the practice squad, Coates' usage was limited to almost strictly special teams duties. With the addition of free agent Justin Hunter and second-round selection JuJu Smith-Schuster, on top of Martavis Bryants' return, Coates will have his work cut out to hold any fantasy relevance this year.
