Hamstring Injury Sidelines 49ers Receiver Deebo Samuel for Weeks
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. will miss "at least a couple of weeks" after suffering a hamstring injury during Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks, head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters. Samuel was ruled out in the third quarter after the injury occurred on a run toward the sideline.
Samuel went down while fumbling the ball before training staff attended to him on the field. He was able to walk off under his own power, holding his right leg, and was subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the game. online floorball betting sites
The injury compounded a difficult day for San Francisco in Seattle. Earlier, linebacker Dre Greenlaw was ejected in the second quarter after headbutting Seahawks linebacker Ernest Jones IV during a sideline altercation that followed a late hit on Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold.
Samuel is in his first season back with the 49ers after signing a one-year deal in the offseason. He spent last season with the Washington Commanders, recording 72 catches for 727 yards and five touchdowns. With Samuel sidelined, Brandin Cooks - who caught a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter - is positioned to take on a larger share of the receiving workload while San Francisco navigates the coming weeks without one of its top offensive weapons.
