49ers Injury Update: Samuel, West Return to Practice
10 Nov
Summary
- Deebo Samuel and CJ West are expected to return to practice Wednesday.
- Mike Evans continues to be sidelined with Achilles tendinitis.
- Gracen Halton will miss the remainder of the season with an ankle injury.
San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan announced that wide receiver Deebo Samuel and defensive tackle CJ West are anticipated to return to practice on Wednesday. Samuel sustained a significant hamstring strain in Week 5, while West, a former starter, has been on injured reserve since September 23 with a knee issue.
Unfortunately, receiver Mike Evans will not be returning to practice this week as he continues to manage Achilles tendinitis. Rookie Gracen Halton suffered a season-ending ankle injury during Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders and will miss the remainder of the season. West is expected to fill the void left by Halton.
Cornerbacks Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green are considered day-to-day with foot and back injuries, respectively. The team also highlighted strong offensive performance, with Christian McCaffrey tying a franchise record for rushing touchdowns in consecutive games and Brock Purdy throwing his second-longest touchdown pass of the season.
