San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is less than two months removed from the Jones fracture of the left foot suffered during a player-organized practice in Tennessee. He recently showed off his rehabilitation progress as he works on putting pressure on the injured leg.
It was initially estimated that the second-year receiver would require 12-16 weeks of recovery time. Samuel, however, vowed to return in 10, and be ready for the start of the regular season.
The 49ers open the season against the Arizona Cardinals at Levi's Stadium on September 13.
"Surgery went perfect," Samuel told fans via Instagram after the surgery to repair the damage. "I'm telling you all, in 10 weeks, it'll be a better Deebo than you have seen. I'm telling you, legendary."
Samuel caught 57 receptions for 802 receiving yards and three touchdowns through 15 regular-season games in 2019. He added 10 receptions for 127 yards through three playoff games, including a five-catch, 39-receiving-yard performance against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.
