49ers WR Deebo Samuel (groin) to miss a little time

49ers WR/offensive weapon Deebo Samuel will have an MRI on his groin today and while he’s expected to miss a little time.

Related players: Brandon Aiyuk, Mohamed Sanu, Jauan Jennings, Jeff Wilson, Elijah Mitchell

Fantasy Impact: 

The good new is, it’s not considered a major injury, the source said. Samuel was used more as a runner in Week 12 so this may not even create more targets for guys like Aiyuk, Sanu and Jennings. But, it may get Mitchell and Wilson more rushing opportunities. Wilson had just two carries while Mitchell went for 27-133-1 while adding five catches for 33 yards. Owners should probably figure on Samuel missing at least Week 13, with the hope of him returning for Week 14, or at worst, the fantasy playoffs.
