49ers' Deebo Samuel and George Kittle Anticipated to Play Against Patriots Despite Injury Worries

Friday, September 27th, 2024

As the San Francisco 49ers gear up to face the New England Patriots, they have received uplifting news about tight end George Kittle, who will take the field despite dealing with a hamstring injury.

Wide receiver Deebo Samuel, who is dealing with a calf issue, is listed as questionable but may still play alongside Kittle. On the other hand, left tackle Trent Williams and safety Talanoa Hufanga are both questionable due to toe and ankle injuries, respectively, causing some uncertainty about their participation.

If Williams is unable to play, Jaylon Moore is expected to step in at left tackle. In the event that Hufanga cannot participate, George Odum or rookie Malik Mustapha might fill his role.

Christian McCaffrey is showing progress in his recovery from Achilles tendinitis and may start to intensify his rehab regimen next week.

Defensively, Jordan Elliott is listed as questionable due to a foot injury, while linebacker Curtis Robinson has unfortunately suffered an ACL tear, ending his season and necessitating his placement on injured reserve.
