The Deebo Samuel coming-out party continues.

San Francisco's rookie receiver gave the 49ers a 19-0 lead over the Packers with a huge touchdown in the final minute of the first half Sunday night at Levi's Stadium. Samuel slanted over the middle, caught quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo's throw and sprinted 42 yards to the end zone.

A Chase McLaughlin extra point put the 49ers up 20-0. McLaughlin also hit a 48-yard field goal in the final seconds before halftime to make it 23-0.

Samuel had two receptions for 50 yards in the first half. He now is on pace for his third straight game of at least 100 receiving yards.
