Deebo Samuel Sr., a wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, is facing a challenging season in fantasy football, having dropped from a must-start player to a potential bench candidate. Despite only missing one game due to injury, his performance has been underwhelming, averaging just 7.9 fantasy points per game.

With the 49ers set to face the Los Angeles Rams, there are concerns about Samuel's recent struggles, including leading the team in drops. However, teammate George Kittle remains optimistic about Samuel's potential to perform well against the Rams, who have been vulnerable to wide receivers this season.
