San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been hospitalized due to fluid in his lungs, head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed on Monday afternoon.
It’s unclear how long he will be sidelined, or if he will be able to play in Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Shanahan said that Samuel first started dealing with symptoms on Sunday morning, and that he was having trouble breathing during their 28-18 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel was pulled from the game in the second quarter, and did not return. He was then admitted to a local hospital that night.
Samuel has racked up 335 yards and one touchdown on 20 catches this season, his sixth with the 49ers. He did not make a catch and wasn’t targeted in Sunday’s game at Levi’s Stadium.
