It looks like Christian McCaffrey will face Minnesota, but Deebo Samuel will miss at least two games and Trent Williams is doubtful to play.
Christian McCaffrey was with his teammates on the field at practice Saturday while Deebo Samuel was not present during the media viewing period.SANTA CLARA — Christian McCaffrey is listed as questionable with an oblique injury but maintains he feels “great” and will probably face the Minnesota Vikings on Monday.
Williams was listed as “doubtful” with an ankle injury, didn’t practice all week, and almost certainly will be replaced by Jaylon Moore in the starting lineup against Minnesota. He has scored a touchdown in 16 straight games for the 49ers and has played in his last 26 games , who has played one more game.“We treat him as our starting running back,” Shanahan said. “I really don’t think of how many touches we want to get somebody in a year. That’s week to week and how the game goes. But he gets a lot more extra because he gets thrown to so much in the passing game.
“Deebo’s a pretty unique player,” Shanahan said. “There are not many people are like him in the league so it does change things up but we’ve got a bunch of good receivers and a bunch of good running backs.” Samuel missed four games last season with hamstring and ankle issues and had played in his last 10 games including the postseason after sitting out Weeks 14, 15, and 16 in 2022 with the ankle sprain.
