  49ers | Deebo Samuel held in check    Mon Feb 12, 12:22 AM

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel caught three of his 11 targets for 33 yards and rushed three times for eight yards in a 25-22 overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII.

Footballguys view: Samuel also had a hamstring problem that knocked him out of the game. The Chiefs seemed to be ready when Samuel was toting the rock as a runner. The passes to Samuel were off the mark, and that's why he couldn't do more as a receiver.

  49ers | Deebo Samuel takes part in limited session on Thursday    Thu Jan 25, 02:37 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel (shoulder) will practice in a limited fashion on Thursday, Jan. 25.

Footballguys view: Samuel is a true game-time decision for the NFC Championship Game against the Lions on Sunday. If he's out there, Samuel is clearly not going to be 100 percent healthy. He might be okay to produce, he might just be a decoy, but the 49ers must prepare to be without him on Sunday.

Footballguys view: This will be something to monitor closely as the week goes on. Initial reports expressed positivity about Samuel's availability, and he's the type of player who doesn't need to practice in order to play. Samuel might be a true game-time decision.

  49ers | Deebo Samuel heating up    Sat Dec 9, 10:20 AM

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel has scored three rushing touchdowns in the last four games and has five total touchdowns during that span.

Footballguys view: Samuel is one of the most fun players to watch play football. Whether he's in the backfield or lined up as a wide receiver, Samuel can make plays and is tough to bring down with the ball in his hands. He's a WR2/flex play on a weekly basis.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel caught four passes for 30 yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. He also rushed for 29 yards and one touchdown on three carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Samuel is healthy coming out of the bye, and he's getting enough touches to justify playing him as a WR3/Flex. He doesn't have as high a ceiling as he did in years past with Christian McCaffrey the centerpiece of the offense, but Samuel is at least still playable in fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel (shoulder) practiced Monday, Nov. 6.

Footballguys view: This is a great sign for Samuel's availability in Week 10. He's been out of action since injuring his shoulder in Week 6, but Samuel is trending in the right direction. The 49ers are coming off their bye, and they travel to face the Jaguars in Week 10. If he plays, Samuel has plenty of flex appeal for Fantasy GMs out there.

Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel (shoulder) will not return to the Week 6 game because of a shoulder injury.

Footballguys view: Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle should get more concentrated targets if Samuel and Christian McCaffrey, who also left with an oblique injury today, can't go vs. Minnesota next week, but overall the offense will suffer without two of their four star players.

  49ers | Deebo Samuel should go    Thu Oct 5, 09:06 AM

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel (knee) is expected to play in Week 5, but his knee injury is having to be managed through the practice week.

Footballguys view: That sounds about right. Samuel was banged up and limited last week, and the team knows how to handle this situation. He was out there last week as a decoy and did not get a single target in the passing game (but he did get three carries). We'll see if Samuel can do a bit more this week against the Cowboys. With the uncertainty around Samuel's usage, we see him as a flex play with upside on Sunday Night Football.

  49ers | Deebo Samuel remains a question mark    Tue Oct 3, 10:01 AM

San Francisco 49ers RB Deebo Samuel (knee, ribs) remains a question mark ahead of the Week 5 game against the Dallas Cowboys. Officially, he is listed as day to day.

Footballguys view: He was able to play through both injuries last week, but he didn't look like himself. Samuel rushed three times for six yards and had no targets in the 49ers Week 4 win over the Cardinals. The 49ers play against the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football in Week 5. That means you'll have to have other options ready that either play in that game or the Packers/Raiders game on Monday night. We'll see what Samuel can do during the week of practice, but get ready for DNP or limited reports.
