San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (ribs) was forced to exit early during Sunday's win over the Dallas Cowboys. He departed in the fourth quarter with pain in his ribs. It's worth noting that Samuel spent time in the hospital with pneumonia prior to Sunday's game. Head coach Kyle Shanahan says the team is considering Samuel as day-to-day right now. The good news is that the 49ers are on a bye this week. That means, Samuel will have plenty of time to rest ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on this situation throughout the week.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens hauled in four of five targets for 74 yards in a 26-18 win over the New York Giants. It was a solid outing for Pickens, but the 23-year-old was incredibly close to having a monster game. He scored a touchdown that was nullified by a face mask penalty on Pittsburgh's opening drive and later couldn't manage to get both feet in bounds on an impressive contested catch in the end zone. Nonetheless, Pickens continued to display excellent chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson, especially on a 43-yard deep shot that put Pittsburgh in the red zone on a crucial drive in the fourth quarter. Fantasy managers should be encouraged by Pickens' role in the offense and be optimistic that the touchdowns will come. His next opportunity will be against the Washington Commanders in Week 10 after the Steelers return from a bye.
