Deebo Samuel Misses Another Practice
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (groin) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Samuel suffered a groin strain in the Week 12 win over the Minnesota Vikings and is expected to miss at least this week's game against the Seattle Seahawks. The 25-year-old has been the WR2 in fantasy this year behind only Cooper Kupp, so fantasy managers will sorely miss him this weekend. The Niners will likely have Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings as their top two receivers for however long Samuel is out, with tight end George Kittle seeing a heavy workload as well. Trent Sherfield and Travis Benjamin will battle for snaps as the No. 3 wideout. Aiyuk, who has been more productive in the second half after a really slow start, could eat against Seattle this Sunday.
