Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel Sr. or Xavier Worthy

Friday, November 13, 1:09 PM

San Francisco 49ers veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) is good to go and does not have an injury designation for the Week 10 game this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. Samuel is returning for the first time since suffering a right-hamstring injury in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, and with Mike Evans (Achilles) missing another game, the 30-year-old could jump right back into a key role in the 49ers' passing attack alongside newcomer Keenan Allen in Dallas. His return, along with the acquisition of Allen, is bad news for Jordan Watkins, who had an elevated role in last week's win over the Las Vegas Raiders with both Samuel and Evans sidelined. The 49ers could ease Samuel back into the fold following a multi-week absence, but the matchup against the Cowboys' shaky defense may be too hard to pass up for fantasy managers this weekend. RotoBaller has the veteran wideout ranked as the No. 24 fantasy WR for Week 10 in his return. The former Pro Bowler has caught 16 of his 20 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns in his first five games in his return to the Bay Area in 2026, adding nine rushing attempts for an additional 79 yards on the ground. There will be worse WR2/3 options than Samuel in Week 10.
