If there's one player that has been adversely affected by the arrival of McCaffrey, it's Samuel. Rewind the clock to 2021 and the South Carolina alum was probably the focal point of the offense. He caught 77 passes for 1,405 yards and 6 TDs, and he added 365 yards and 8 TDs on 59 carries. Over the last two years, his numbers have dipped, averaging 762 yards and 4.5 TDs as a receiver and 229 yards and 4 TDs as a runner. While those aren't bad numbers, his Swiss Army Knife appeal was lessened by the arrival of a player with an equally rare combination of skills.
For a time this offseason, it appeared the 49ers were ready to move on from Samuel with trade rumors aplenty leading up to (and even during) the draft. He remains on the roster, though, and there's no reason to think he'll be moved in-season. Given the state of his contract, the team's salary cap, and ongoing questions about Brandon Aiyuk's future, it's certainly possible he's entering his final season by the Bay. Whether that adds any extra motivation is unknown, but it's something to consider.
Samuel has had some issues staying healthy, due in part to his ultra physical style of play, having never played every game in a season during his five-year career. It's not enough to devalue him much, though, and even with declining production he's a possible low-end No. 2 fantasy wideout.

 Deebo Samuel expected to miss multiple games
Suffered a calf strain in Week 2
By: Doug Orth | Mon Sep 16, 11:30 pm
|  | More: 49ers WR Deebo Samuel strained his calf Sunday and is expected to miss a couple weeks, per HC Kyle Shanahan. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: A "couple weeks" suggests that Samuel is dealing with a Grade 1 strain, since a Grade 2 strain usually means an athlete will be sidelined for at least a month. San Francisco will almost certainly rely more heavily on George Kittle and Brandon Aiyuk in the passing game now without Samuel around. Jauan Jennings will start in Samuel's place and could be worth starting in deeper leagues. Considering how often Samuel was seeing work out of the backfield, look for rookie Isaac Guerendo to spell Jordan Mason.
| Christian McCaffrey headed to IR, out next four games
Calf tightness, Achilles tendinitis
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 14, 1:15 pm
| | ESPN sources: 49ers officially are placing All-Pro RB Christian McCaffrey on injured reserve due to his calf tightness and Achilles tendinitis. McCaffrey now will miss the next four games, at least, before the team assesses whether he can return in mid-October. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: We got word yesterday this may happen and now it has. McCaffrey was the overwhelming No.1 pick in fantasy football this season after the team projected this pre-season that McCaffrey to be fine for Week 1. That wasn't the case. Jordan Mason is looking more and more like a league winner with each passing day. Deebo Samuel Samuel should take on more of the rushing workload in the short-term until the team becomes more comfortable with rookie Isaac Guerendo who missed a good chunk of camp with an injury of his own.
| WR Ricky Pearsall dealing with hamstring injury
49ers WR will start camp on PUP
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Jul 23, 2:03 pm
| | 49ers first-round pick Ricky Pearsall injured his hamstring and will open training camp on PUP. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: It's never good for rookies to miss time during minicamp or training camp as they need all the reps they can get in order build chemistry with their quarterback and learn the offense. Pearsall is on on the fringes of fantasy relevancy in redraft leagues as long as Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk remain healthy and on the team.
