The San Francisco 49ers received excellent news about star wide receiver Deebo Samuel, who was hospitalized with pneumonia.
Before Sunday’s Week 7 home game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Deebo Samuel was listed as questionable with an unspecified illness. He had to leave the game early and did not return, and the 49ers subsequently announced on Monday that the All-Pro wideout was in the hospital with pneumonia.
Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Samuel was released from the hospital today. The 49ers host the Dallas Cowboys on “Sunday Night Football” at Levi’s Stadium this week, and it’s unknown if he’ll play.
The Deebo Samuel news is a welcoming development for the 49ers, who have been ravaged by injuries this season. All-Pro wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk suffered a season-ending ACL tear against the Chiefs, and superstar running back Christian McCaffrey still hasn’t played this season because of Achilles tendonitis.
On top of that, All-Pro tight end George Kittle is dealing with a sprained foot. If Kittle, Samuel and McCaffrey all miss Sunday’s game, that means the 49ers must field an offense without their four superstar offensive weapons.
Through six games this season, Deebo Samuel has 20 receptions for 335 yards, one touchdowns, 51 rushing yards and a rushing score. The 28-year-old has put up over 800 yards of offense in each of the last three seasons.
49ers Need Deebo Samuel & Jauan Jennings Down The Stretch
With Aiyuk out for the season, the 49ers offense will lean plenty more on the WR tandem of Samuel and Jauan Jennings. The latter is enjoying a breakout year with 25 receptions for 404 yards and three touchdowns.
Losing Aiyuk for the season is a brutal blow, but the 49ers can still get by with an offense featuring Jennings, Samuel, Kittle and a healthy McCaffrey. But if the 49ers lose to Dallas on Sunday, their playoff hopes will be on thin ice with a 3-5 record.

In the wake of quarterback Deshaun Watson’s miserable season-opening outing against the Dallas Cowboys, Browns fans speculated if he had a burner account to defend himself.
Internet detectives zoned in on the X account of one Leroy Bickerstaff (@LeroyBickers4), who has posted glowing remarks about Watson despite a disappointing start to the season.
That was then, and this is now.
It appears that fans have found a separate account that is now being linked to Deshaun Watson.
The account, @VPritchs, suddenly began defending the Browns quarterback during halftime of Sunday’s game, and many accused the quarterback of running the page and tweeting from the locker room.

The Cleveland Browns had multiple opportunities in the fourth quarter to rally for a win for the second straight week, but they ultimately fell short.
Deshaun Watson said to blame himself after Cleveland blew an early 10-0 lead and lost 20-16 to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
The loss dropped the team to 1-3 on the year.
Deshaun Watson Is Once Again Dealing With More Off The Filed Trouble Amid Rough Season
Deshaun Watson and the Browns lost yet again on Sunday, Falling to the Raiders, 20-16, in Las Vegas.
He finished the game by completing 24 of 32 passes for 176 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.
Watson’s woes on the field can also be attributed to what he is dealing with off the field, as another woman is accusing him of sexual assault stemming from an alleged October 2020 incident in a new lawsuit filed earlier this month.
He was previously suspended for 11 games in 2022 and fined $5 million by the league amid accusations of sexual misconduct by massage therapists.
Twenty-three of the 24 civil lawsuits filed against Watson were settled in 2022, according to ESPN.
Travis Kelce Used One Word To Describe His Whirlwind Relationship With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
