After exiting Sunday's game with a pneumonia-like illness, Deebo Samuel has been released from the hospital, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Samuel came into the matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs expecting to play through the illness, but he played just a few snaps before exiting the game. Later on Sunday night, Samuel checked into the hospital because of fluid buildup in his lungs.
