Deebo Samuel Won't Return Against The Packers

10 months ago

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder) won't return to Saturday's postseason meeting with the Green Bay Packers. The wideout suffered a variety of ailments throughout the evening. First, he exited briefly for a concussion evaluation. However, a shoulder injury suffered not long after was enough to seal his fate for the rest of the night, and he'll finish with two catches for 24 yards. Of course, Samuel's health will be a significant topic heading into the NFC Championship, assuming the Niners can advance. But until he's back on the field, Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, and Brandon Aiyuk will remain the top offensive contributors. At the same time, Jauan Jennings, who has three catches for 33 yards, could continue to see an expanded role.
