49ers-Bills Injury Report: Deebo Samuel returns to practice
The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 13 contest against the Buffalo Bills on Monday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
Deebo Samuel returned to practice after dealing with some soreness following Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. It was the receiver's first game since October 25, when he suffered a hamstring injury.
Keeping Samuel out of the team's first practice in Arizona was just a precaution. Head coach Kyle Shanahan expects the second-year wideout to play on Monday night.
"He's going to be good,"
Shanahan said on KNBR. "... So, he needed an extra day to get some of that soreness out, and I kind of understand it because he's in shape, but you've got to callus your body, and you've got to play a lot of football."
Cornerback
Emmanuel Moseley, who was limited on Thursday due to a hamstring injury, was limited again on Friday.
Below are Friday's practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Bills, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.

Deebo Samuel has faced his share of injuries throughout his football career, but nothing ever hit him as hard from a mental perspective as what he went through in 2020.
Fortunately, the challenges Samuel faced in 2020 are now almost completely in the rearview mirror, and as a result, he's itching to jump into the offseason and get prepared for 2021.
Samuel spoke in detail with reporters Monday about what he went through in 2020, revealing that he faced a level of emotional challenge along the way that he hadn't experienced previously in his career. Samuel went through two injury-shortened seasons during his college days at the University of South Carolina, but a Jones fracture in his foot he sustained during an offseason workout in June followed by hamstring

The 2020 NFL season probably didn't go as running back Raheem Mostert had hoped. Injuries reduced his participation to just eight games. Mostert finished the season with 521 rushing yards on 104 carries with two rushing touchdowns and a receiving score.
According to Next Gen Stats, Mostert did finish the season recording the two fastest ball-carrier speeds. He hit 23.09 MPH during Week 2 against the New York Jets, a game he left with an MCL sprain, and forcing the running back to miss the next two matchups.
Mostert was tracked reaching 22.73 MPH during a Week 1 touchdown reception against the Arizona
Deebo Samuel doesn't like anyone suggesting Nick Bosa be part of a potential Watson-to-49ers trade

It's the offseason. So why not speculate on what it might take for the San Francisco 49ers to land disgruntled Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson? One suggestion by former NFL player Ross Tucker, during an interview on 95.7 The Game, was a little too wild for a 49ers wide receiver's liking.
Tucker mentioned the 49ers' young pass-rushing star after being asked if anyone is untouchable in creating a tempting enough package to acquire Watson.
"I would say Nick Bosa, but if you can get Deshaun Watson, I think even Bosa is touchable," Tucker said. "I'm sure they don't want to do it, and I'm sure they'd even rather give up picks, but as great as Nick is, if you get a chance to get a top-five quarterback in the NFL, you have to do it.
"So I would say
