Facing 'three-ish'-week absence San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that he expects Samuel (knee/ankle) to return to game action in "three-ish" weeks, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Impact Based on Shanahan's comments, the 49ers already seem to be ruling Samuel out for Thursday's game in Seattle as well as the team's Dec. 24 home game against the Commanders, but a Week 16 return at Las Vegas could be in the forecast for the talented wideout if he makes a quick recovery from the MCL sprain to his left knee and the left ankle sprain he sustained in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers. San Francisco will likely be left with Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings and Ray-Ray McCloud as its primary options at receiver for the duration of Samuel's absence.

Has MCL sprain, ankle sprain Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Samuel has been diagnosed with a left MCL sprain and sprained left ankle, but the 49ers expect him to play again at some point during the regul...
Impact Samuel was knocked out of Sunday's 35-7 win against the Buccaneers after he was bent backward by two Tampa Bay defenders in the second quarter, a play in which he lost a fumble on a three-yard carry. First, he was listed as questionable to return with a knee injury before being ruled out with an ankle issue. It appears both areas are compromised, which wouldn't have allowed him to practice Monday if the 49ers had held a session, per Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Samuel appears poised to miss Thursday's game at Seattle and likely additional action beyond that point, but Shanahan's comment indicates the wide receiver may see action Week 17 or 18. In the meantime, Brandon Aiyuk will become the focus of San Francisco's receiving corps, with Jauan Jennings, Ray-Ray McCloud and Danny Gray set for bigger roles.

High ankle sprain feared Samuel likely has a high ankle sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact The 49ers originally believed Samuel avoided a major injury, likely because x-rays revealed no broken bones, but a high ankle sprain would probably sideline the star receiver for the remainder of the regular season, as such injuries usually come with a 4-6 week recovery timetable. Samuel will get an MRI soon to confirm the diagnosis.

Deebo Samuel Injures Ankle Against Buccaneers The 49ers were winning 21-0 when Samuel injured his ankle.

Likely avoided major injury Samuel (ankle) is believed to have avoided a major injury Sunday against the Buccaneers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Impact Samuel had his leg rolled up on at the end of a run up the middle prior to being carted to the locker room. Further testing on the injury is still necessary, but it sounds like Samuel will likely avoid a long-term absence. His availability for Thursday's game against Seattle has not been determined, though the short turnaround will make it an uphill battle for the star receiver.
