Deebo Samuel Sr. News
Friday, October 16, 3:00 PM
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) missed a second straight practice on Friday, according to Harrison Rich of The San Francisco Chronicle. Although the 49ers do not plan to place Samuel on Injured Reserve at this time following his hamstring injury on Sunday in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, the 30-year-old veteran is expected to miss several weeks, including Monday night's clash against the Washington Commanders in Week 6. Fantasy managers should not realistically expect him to make a return until their Week 9 game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Nov. 8 after their bye in Week 8. San Francisco is running out of healthy bodies at the receiver position, with veteran Mike Evans (ribs, Achilles) also hobbled and not practicing yet this week. It is possible that Christian Kirk (calf) makes his return from Injured Reserve this weekend to give the team some reinforcements. Samuel was seeing increased usage in 2026 in his return to the Niners given all their injuries and had 16 catches on 20 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns before his hamstring injury on Sunday.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Saturday, October 17, 2:46 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is set to make his debut for his new team with a limited package against the Jaguars in Week 6. Coach DeMeco Ryans praised the receiver's work to learn the team's playbook after he was acquired earlier this week, but he also said, "Don't expect him to come out and play all 60 snaps in the game, but we'll make sure he gets what he needs." While the team will want to showcase its new addition, Harrison will be a high-risk option since he is still just ramping up with his new team's playbook and terminology. He only had five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown in four games with the Cardinals before the trade, so he may need time to settle in and find his form. In his limited role in Week 6, he's only RotoBaller's No. 71 WR, so he isn't a strong starter in most formats this week.
