The San Francisco 49ers will be without wide receiver Deebo Samuel for the next couple of weeks due to a calf strain sustained during their recent game against the Minnesota Vikings. Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that Samuel's injury occurred late in the game, and he will join running back Christian McCaffrey on the sidelines, who is also out for at least three games due to Achilles tendonitis. This leaves the 49ers with a depleted offense as they look to fill the void left by their two most versatile players.
