Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 9 for the San Francisco 49ers according to Nick Wagoner.
Fantasy Impact
Samuel Sr. will sit out once again for head coach Kyle Shanahan with an eye towards returning in Week 10, with Brandin Cooks and Demarcus Robinson (ankle) in line to lead a banged-up wideout group against the Raiders Sunday.
49ers GM John Lynch said it’s unlikely that Deebo Samuel Sr. will play in Week 9 against the Raiders.
Fantasy Impact
Mike Evans is also not expected to play. Demarcus Robinson, Christian Kirk, Jordan Watkins, and Brandin Cooks will lead the 49ers wide receiver room.
49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters he expects Deebo Samuel Sr. to be good to go following the 49ers Week 8 bye week.
Fantasy Impact
Samuel hasn’t practiced since injuring his hamstring in the 49ers Week 5 win over the Seahawks. He'll hope to return after the bye week.
Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) won't play in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.
Fantasy Impact
As expected, the veteran is going to miss another game on Sunday as he continues to nurse a hamstring injury. QB Brock Purdy doesn't project to be as strong of a fantasy option this week with him and Mike Evans (ribs/Achilles) ruled out for this matchup against the Falcons.
Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) was absent from San Francisco's practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
To no surprise, Samuel wasn't able to practice on Wednesday. He missed last week's game because of his hamstring issue, and he is expected to miss more time beyond that for the same reason. Christian Kirk (calf) may be one of the primary beneficiaries of his absence.
