OUT
Hamstring strain continues; ruled out again Friday
Latest
Samuel strained his right hamstring and left the Oct. 11 win at Seattle in the third quarter. On Oct. 12 coach Kyle Shanahan said he is “going to miss some time,” and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported several weeks, which ruled out Week 6 against Washington. He was downgraded to Out for Sunday’s Week 9 home game against the Raiders, per the Nov. 6 report. He rejoined San Francisco on a one-year, $7 million deal on Aug. 1 after playing 16 games for Washington in 2025.
Samuel caught six of seven targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 and added three catches against Miami in Week 2. Injuries to Ricky Pearsall, De’Zhaun Stribling, Christian Kirk and Demarcus Robinson thinned the 49ers’ receiver room in September, and GM John Lynch has said Samuel will be used all over the field.
Fantasy Action: Samuel is Out for Sunday’s Week 9 home game against the Raiders, so bench him. Mike Evans is also out, so lean on Jordan Watkins, Brandin Cooks and George Kittle in San Francisco’s passing game.
