49ers will be without Deebo Samuel

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – San Francisco 49ers playmaker Deebo Samuel will miss Sunday’s key NFC West showdown against the rival Los Angeles Rams with an injured hamstring.

Samuel hurt his hamstring during last weekend’s loss to Kansas City. Coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Samuel had been ruled out but he hopes he can return after the bye week.

A source told The Associated Press on Thursday that Chase’s injury could keep him out several weeks, but Taylor wouldn’t go that far Friday and wouldn’t say if the team planned to put Chase on the injured list. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the Bengals are not commenting on Chase’s condition.
