Deebo Samuel Makes Impact Upon Return
Samuel caught 8-of-9 targets for 89 yards in the 49ers’ Conference Championship win over the Lions, adding seven yards on three carries. He entered the game without an injury designation after leaving the Divisional Round win over the Packers in the first quarter, playing a normal allotment of snaps while operating in his typical role as a dual threat weapon.
