Deebo Samuel Dealing With "Different" Hamstring Issue
Published: Nov 26, 2022 at 05:36 PM
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring) remains questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Saints. The wideout didn't play in the Week 8 win over the Rams because of a hamstring injury, leading most to assume he's still dealing with the lingering effects. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan provided an update, reporting that Samuel's current hamstring issue is "something different," although he didn't elaborate further. The 26-year-old finished the 2021-22 campaign with 14 total touchdowns. Yet, he only has four in nine games this season. That said, fantasy managers should continue to monitor Samuel's status while remaining optimistic his health doesn't take a turn for the worse. But if he isn't available in Week 12, Christian McCaffrey, Brandon Aiyuk, and George Kittle should remain featured on the offensive end. At the same time, Jauan Jennings, the team's fourth most productive receiving option, could be more involved.
