The San Francisco 49ers got some bad news regarding wide receiver Deebo Samuel ahead of Sunday's game versus the Arizona Cardinals. The receiver bruised his ribs a week ago versus the Giants, but has also come up with a knee injury since. The knee issue caused him to miss practice Wednesday.

Samuel hurt his ribs after a sustaining a big hit on a catch-and-run versus the Giants. He came out of the game for a bit before returning to catch a 27-yard touchdown pass to close out the 49ers 30-12 win. The 49ers got good news that Samuel did not have any fractured ribs, but he is still coming back from the ribs issue while simultaneously dealing with a knee injury, per The Athletic's David Lombardi.

The 49ers will hope to have Deebo Samuel in time for the Cardinals game after he put up six receptions for 129 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Giants. Unfortunately, part of Samuel's strengths as a between the tackles runner and over the middle receiver leave him more susceptible to big hits and injuries. He is still day-to-day.

The receiver room for the 49ers is pretty banged up this week. Jauan Jennings also missed practice Wednesday with a shin injury. Brandon Aiyuk, who led the 49ers in receiving yards the first two weeks of the year, already missed the Giants game with a shoulder injury and was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. If these receivers are limited Sunday or unable to play, expect WR Ronnie Bell and tight end George Kittle to receive more targets and opportunities.
