After a brief hospitalization due to pneumonia-like symptoms and fluid in his lungs, Samuel has shown amazing resilience and determination. He began the week in the hospital but was discharged Tuesday, swiftly returning to the field.
Expectations for Samuel and the 49ers
Following his discharge, Samuel participated in two limited practices, gaining stamina and momentum. The All-Pro has been crucial for the underperforming 3-4 49ers, contributing 20 catches and 19 carries for 386 total yards and two touchdowns this season.

The 49ers are looking to overcome a challenging season, aiming to return to .500 against a formidable Cowboys team. Kickoff is set for 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday.
