Samuel (shin) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area

Through nine games this season, Samuel has six outings with at least 100 yards from scrimmage and seven total touchdowns. He was especially on point Monday versus the Rams on his way to 10 touches for 133 total yards and a pair of scores. Coach Kyle Shanahan told Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area on Tuesday that Samuel is considered day-to-day this week due to a bruised shin, and the wide receiver's subsequent activity level in practice has backed that up. Samuel has one more chance to get back to full before the 49ers are required to lock in a designation or remove it entirely ahead of Sunday's game in Jacksonville.
