Samuel shared a video via Instagram with the caption, "Finally back to work."
Last week, Shanahan discussed the return of Samuel and the others. However, he knows that receiving a few reinforcements doesn't change the 49ers' situation much. The team owns a 4-6 record and will need to show vast improvement over the final six games to keep its playoff hopes alive.
"Getting guys who you depend on, who've done a lot for us, I think you guys can see how Deebo's been in just the games he's played this year," Shanahan said. "How Sherm's been, just even when he came out to practice, the boost he gives.
"… Getting Deebo back, getting Raheem back, Sherm, that stuff is going to help big. That's some juice we need, but we also don't have much room for error with where our record is right now. So, I can't count on those guys just to come in and change everything."
