49ers' Samuel set to return for SNF, Mitchell among 4 activated off IR
The San Francisco 49ers are coming out of their bye week much healthier than when they went in.
Star wide receiver Deebo Samuel is in line to play Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers after being removed from Friday's injury report, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. Samuel missed the 49ers' last game before their bye - a win over the Los Angeles Rams - due to a hamstring injury.
Meanwhile, running back Elijah Mitchell, linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, offensive lineman Colton McKivitz, and defensive end Jordan Willis will be activated from injured reserve for the Week 10 matchup.
Receiver Jauan Jennings, fullback Kyle Juszczyk, and linebacker Dre Greenlaw will also return after missing the Rams game due to injury.
San Francisco sits at 4-4 through nine weeks and will be looking to keep pace with the NFC West-leading Seattle Seahawks, who play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Munich.
