49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said Monday that WR Deebo Samuel is "day to day" with a rib injury and oblique strain. He gets a well-timed Week 9 bye, and it sounds like he should be ready come Week 10. Samuel racked up 86 total yards in Sunday night's win over the Cowboys and had a 66-yard TD called back by a penalty. Between these injuries and the Week 9 bye, there could still be a buy window open on Deebo, who looks like a top-10 fantasy WR going forward.

49ers WR Deebo Samuel missed the final eight minutes of Sunday night's game vs. the Cowboys with a rib injury. HC Kyle Shanahan didn't have any update on Samuel after the game. We'll look for more information on the injury, but Samuel gets a Week 9 bye to rest up.

49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk tore the ACL and MCL in his right knee in the Week 7 loss to the Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "There may be other damage," Rapoport adds. Aiyuk will miss the rest of the 2024 season. And any "other damage" to his knee could impact his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign. We'll keep you updated on Aiyuk's diagnosis and timeline for return.

49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's loss to the Chiefs that "we're worried" WR Brandon Aiyuk has a torn ACL. "Not confirmed yet," Shanahan added. We should get an update on Aiyuk tomorrow, but a torn ACL would end his 2024 season. His absence would mean target boosts for WR Deebo Samuel and TE George Kittle -- and put WR Jauan Jennings back into weekly starter consideration.
