Initial reports from the 49ers’ team facility Wednesday indicated wide receiver Deebo Samuel would miss practice with an ankle injury.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan said before practice that Samuel wouldn’t participate due to an ankle issue that apparently isn’t new despite the wide receiver not appearing on the practice report the last couple weeks.
“It’s been there for a little bit,” Shanahan said in his press conference. “I think he’ll be alright, but it concerned us enough to not let him go today.”
Whatever concern the team had before practice evaporated quickly, because Samuel was on the field for the portion open to media. He was officially listed as a limited participant.
