Deebo Samuel Sr. Says he Feels "Ready to Go" for Week 10

Wednesday, November 11, 12:30 PM

San Francisco 49ers veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) said on Wednesday that he feels ready to go versus the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, according to Matt Lively of CBS Sports. Samuel has not played since the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks due to a right-hamstring injury, but he returned to a limited practice on Wednesday and is trending in the right direction to play this weekend. Meanwhile, Mike Evans (Achilles, ribs) continues to miss practice and is not expected to play in Week 10. The 30-year-old Samuel will likely need to put in a full practice on Thursday or Friday to avoid a questionable tag going into the weekend. San Francisco's WR dynamic will be different if Samuel is back this weekend after the team acquired veteran Keenan Allen from the Indianapolis Colts at Tuesday's trade deadline, and Samuel could be on a limited snap count if he is active in Dallas, which will make him a risky WR4/flex in fantasy if he is given the green light to play. In five games before his hamstring injury, Samuel had a modest 16 receptions on 20 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns while adding nine carries for 78 yards on the ground.

Justin Jefferson Disappoints Again Despite Huge Volume

Monday, November 9, 8:48 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught three of 11 passes for 58 yards in his team's 23-6 loss to the visiting Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. Jefferson racked up a ludicrous 40% target share from quarterback Carson Wentz in Week 9, but was held in check as the latter played one of his worst games as a pro. It's an unfortunate outcome, considering Wentz and Jefferson showed chemistry in past games, including earlier this season. Alas, it marks the seventh-year pro's third straight outing with fewer than 60 receiving yards despite a healthy 27 targets over the span. Through seven appearances, Jefferson has logged a mere 31 catches and 393 yards. If this pace holds true, it'd be his lowest receiving total in a campaign of his career (898). The LSU product will look to rebound in a divisional clash with the Green Bay Packers next Sunday.
