Deebo Samuel set an NFL record in the 49ers’ Week 3 win over Arizona, recording 80 receiving yards without a catch on a touchdown play. Mike Evans was credited with the catch before lateraling the ball to Samuel.
The previous record for receiving yards without a catch was 65, set by Timmy Brown of the Eagles in 1961.
