At the start of the second half in their divisional round playoff game against the Packers, the 49ers hadn’t done much of anything, and they were down 7-0 in rather embarrassing fashion. Jimmy Garoppolo and his receivers were especially off, with several drops and a drive-killing interception.
So, receiver/runner/do-it-all guy Deebo Samuel decided to take matters into his own hands on the second-half kickoff.
Against the Packers’ league-worst return units, Samuel took the ball at his own five-yard line and trucked his way 45 yards to the 50-yard line.
