49ers receiver Deebo Samuel will miss time with hamstring injury

San Francisco 49ers receiver Deebo Samuel will be sidelined for a few weeks due to a hamstring injury sustained during their win against the Seattle Seahawks. Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that Samuel "got it pretty good" and will miss some time after the incident in the 32-29 victory on Sunday. The injury adds to the 49ers' depleted receiving corps, which already includes Ricky Pearsall, who underwent season-ending knee surgery, and rookie De’Zhaun Stribling, sidelined for at least a month due to an ankle injury.

Other injured players include backup linebacker Garret Wallow, defensive end Nick Bosa, fullback Kyle Juszczyk, and defensive tackle James Thompson Jr. The 49ers have other receivers like Mike Evans, Brandin Cooks, Jordan Watkins, and Jacob Cowing, but the team still faces a significant challenge in finding replacements.
