According to sources, the 49ers' Samuel and Kittle are in line for the game against the Cowboys

The San Francisco 49ers are expected to have both wide receiver Deebo Samuel and tight end George Kittle for Sunday night's game against the Dallas Cowboys, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Both Samuel (wrist, illness) and Kittle (foot) are officially listed as questionable for the game but are likely to play, a boost for a Niners team that lost Brandon Aiyuk to a knee injury last weekend against the Kansas City Chiefs of the season, fellow receiver Jauan Jennings will also be out as he continues to battle a hip injury.

Samuel was hospitalized for an illness that left him with fluid in his lungs after playing just four snaps against the Chiefs. He remained hospitalized until Tuesday, missed training on Wednesday and had limited training on Thursday and Friday.

Kittle, who is dealing with a foot sprain, also had to miss practice on Wednesday before returning in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday.

Cornerback Deommodore Lenoir (illness) and safety George Odum (knee) remain questionable for San Francisco (3-4), which can get back to .500 with a win against the visiting Cowboys.

Information from ESPN's Nick Wagoner was used in this report.
