Trending toward practicing Wednesday
Samuel (hamstring) is on track to return to practice Wednesday, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.
That's a positive development for Samuel who logged a trio of 'DNPs' last week. His potential return this weekend against the Cowboys would be a welcome one for the 49ers' depleted WR corps. With that in mind, Mike Evans (Achilles) is viewed as iffy for the contest, so a key role in the team's passing attack could await Samuel if he is able to return for his first game action since Week 5.
