## Summary

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been cleared to play against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday after missing games with a hamstring strain. His return gives quarterback Brock Purdy another experienced option as the 7-1 team seeks to maintain its place at the top of the division.

Samuel, 30, was injured in a Week 5 game against Seattle and has had a full week of practice. Coach Kyle Shanahan said he was healthy and had looked after himself while recovering, though he is still getting back into the team’s rhythm. The 49ers remain without Mike Evans, who has Achilles tendinitis, while recent signing Keenan Allen is also expected to make his debut after three practices.
