Christian Kirk suffers meniscus injury; Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel also out

Kyle Madsen

yesterday · 7:18 PM EST

Christian Kirk injured his meniscus in practice and will miss Sunday’s game against Las Vegas. Kyle Shanahan said the team is still determining whether surgery is necessary. Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel have also been ruled out. Demarcus Robinson is questionable with an ankle injury, though Shanahan expects the team will most likely activate him from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey should absorb plenty of the available targets and remain premium starts. Jordan Watkins becomes a deeper-league FLEX consideration, while Robinson would enter that conversation if activated. Brandin Cooks and Jacob Cowing offer speculative depth, but this receiver shortage doesn’t make every remaining wideout a reliable fantasy starter.

John Lynch says Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel unlikely to play Sunday

GM John Lynch on KNBR: It's likely Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel will not be available Sunday against the Raiders.

But the 49ers are getting back Demarcus Robinson and KhaDarel Hodge -- two players who were among the six active wide receivers for Week 1.

Fantasy Impact:

Managers should plan to replace both receivers. Kittle remains a high-end TE1 with a strong opportunity to lead this passing game. Watkins has a deeper-league FLEX case, while Kirk, Cooks, and Cowing remain less dependable options. Robinson is worth monitoring if activated from injured reserve, but his return would spread opportunities across an already uncertain receiver rotation. Purdy remains a QB1 option against Las Vegas.

Deebo Samuel unlikely to return this week; Demarcus Robinson’s practice window opens

Kyle Posey

Nov 04 · 5:22 PM EST

Kyle Shanahan said he would be surprised if Deebo Samuel (hamstring) plays this week. Mike Evans (Achilles) also remained out of practice Wednesday, while the 49ers opened Demarcus Robinson’s return window from injured reserve. Robinson has been sidelined since Week 2.

Fantasy Impact:

Samuel managers should plan to use another receiver, while Evans still needs practice progress before entering lineup consideration. If both remain out, Kittle should continue commanding a prominent receiving role and remains a high-end TE1. Watkins would have a deeper-league FLEX case, with Kirk, Cooks and Cowing carrying less dependable workloads. Robinson is a reasonable deep-league stash, but he needs activation and a clearer role before becoming a starting option.

Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel out; Christian Kirk expected to return

With a bye week coming soon, San Francisco 49ers receiver Mike Evans and defensive end Nick Bosa won't play in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons as they deal with Achilles tendinitis and a calf injury, respectively.

On Friday, the Niners ruled Evans and Bosa out against the Falcons after neither player participated in practice this week. In addition to Bosa and Evans, the Niners also ruled out wideout Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring), linebackers Luke Gifford (groin) and Garret Wallow (hamstring), and safety Marques Sigle (ankle).

Fantasy Impact:

Phew.

Kittle and McCaffrey remain premium starts and could absorb more of the passing offense. Kirk becomes a speculative PPR FLEX if activated, although his first game back carries workload uncertainty. Cooks and Watkins are deeper-league alternatives rather than automatic starters simply because the receiver room is depleted. Purdy remains a QB1 option, with more risk attached to his supporting cast.
