The 49ers had a big win on Sunday against the Bears, but 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel did not have a big game.

Samuel was held to two catches for 22 yards, continuing a disappointing season in which he’s averaging career-lows in catches per game and yards per game. But Samuel took to social media on Monday afternoon to say nothing is wrong.

“Not struggling at all just not getting the ball!!!!!!!” Samuel wrote.

He later added: “Just cause I voice my opinions mean I’m hating on any of my teammates!! Be Fr,” Samuel wrote.

As the story mentioned, a comment like that could be portrayed as a complaint. The story mentions that Jennings has more targets, more catches and more yards, as well as more TDs than Samuel this season. The 49ers play on Thursday night in what is likely your opening round of the fantasy playoffs. So, owners may be hoping his post causes the Niners to come out and heavily target Samuel to potentially fix any hard feelings.

After the game, coach Kyle Shanahan said that, from this point forward, Jauan Jennings will be playing the high-profile X-receiver position that Brandon Aiyuk manned before his season-ending knee injury.

Jennings responded with a team-high 93 receiving yards, including 36 yards after the catch, the story pointed out. His 13-yard catch-and-run at the end of the game set up the game-winning field goal. Pearsall, meanwhile, finished second on the team with 73 receiving yards. Jennings played a 58 snaps at WR to lead all the 49ers at the position. Samuel had 48 snaps and Pearsall 41.

49ers expecting to get WR Jauan Jennings (hip) back after the bye, per Kyle Shanahan.

The Niners should be as close to full strength on offense as they'll ever be this year, only missing Brandon Aiyuk. Jennings should slide into the team's WR2 role as the Niners are expecting Deebo Samuel back as well. Factor in the return of Christian McCaffrey and San Francisco will be poised for a run in the second half of the season. The returning weapons should also boost QB Brock Purdy's fantasy value as well.

John Lynch on KNBR said Jauan Jennings is doubtful with his groin injury this week.

If Deebo is good to go, we can assume the 49ers will be heavily targeting himself and Kittle this week in a good matchup. This makes both huge assets to fantasy squads, and rookie Ricky Pearsall is an interesting deep-league play in his second career game.

According to multiple reports, Deebo Samuel has been discharged from the hospital. Samuel left Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs with an illness and went to the hospital later that night.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Samuel had fluid in his lungs and described his condition as pneumonia. Shanahan said that the team will see how Samuel recovers over the coming days, but owners should probably have other plans in place, especially because the Niners are at home against the Cowboys on Sunday night.

The illness that sidelined Deebo Samuel yesterday is pneumonia. He's in the hospital.

When the team realized Deebo had fluid in his lungs, he was sent to the hospital, Lombardi said in another post. Another beat writer, Nick Wagoner, reported Samuel was struggling to breathe which is why he wasn't in the game very long. Aiyuk is out for the season so the Niners now find themselves very thin at the WR position. There is no timetable for Samuel's return at this point. Reports say the team should get Jennings (hip) back in Week 8, but rookies like Pearsall and Cowing could very well be factors in the short term until Samuel is able to return.

Anyone who held on to Jennings should be in good shape as he will likely slide in as the team's WR2 behind Deebo. Jennings didn't play in Week 7 because of a hip injury but the team is hoping to have in back for Week 8, according to reports. Pearsall was active for the first time and caught three balls for 21 yards. Cowing had two catches for 50 yards. Both rookies could be options behind Samuel, Kittle and likely Jennings, but may not be consistent fantasy producers. We reported McCaffrey is looking to return on Nov. 10 and it's possible he's counted on as a receiver more than a rusher once he's back.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that WR Deebo Samuel has a calf strain and will miss a few weeks. Another star injury for the Niners.

It's a big blow to the Niners offense, which is already without Christian McCaffrey for an extended time. There was no mention on whether or not Deebo could end up on IR. Aiyuk should take over as the team's WR1, but who takes over as the WR2 is the bigger question. Kittle is likely next up after Aiyuk, which then leaves Jennings, Bell, Conley and Cowing at WR. Jennings is probably the leading candidate, but probably won't be a safe play in typical leagues. Cowing is a rookie who has stood out over the spring and summer and has been returning kicks, so it's possible he earns a bigger role with Deebo out.

The 49ers placed WR Ricky Pearsall on the reserve/non-football injury list after he suffered a gunshot wound in an attempted armed robbery over the weekend. Pearsall, the team's first-round pick, will miss at least the first four games.

The loss of Pearsall opens up the 49ers WR3 spot. However, with Aiyuk, Samuel and George Kittle, the Niners WR3 isn't always fantasy relevant. Despite that, Cowing could still be a name to keep an eye on. The rookie has generated a lot of positive press through camp this summer. However, guys like Jennings, Bell and Conley could also earn time in that WR3 role.

The 49ers are not trading star WR Brandon Aiyuk — he’s staying in SF with a massive extension.

Aiyuk is getting a front-loaded 4-year deal worth $120M. And yes, Aiyuk will now practice.

The sweat is over for fantasy managers, and those who grabbed Aiyuk in the 4th are feeling fantastic. The 49ers are set to be an incredible offense once again and Aiyuk should be an easy click in the 3rd round.
