The only sure thing about the San Francisco 49ers right now is that nothing is sure. Especially in the case of star wide receiver Deebo Samuel.
It is not a secret that Samuel is angling for a better deal, and it became apparent that he is not happy with how the talks have been going after recently deleting traces of the 49ers from his social media accounts. Now, per the report of NBC Sports Bay Area, NFL insider Adam Schefter believes that the talented WR is raring to seek another team.
“San Francisco wants to pay Deebo Samuel, but Deebo Samuel was the one who scrubbed the 49ers logos off his social media page. Deebo Samuel was the one that essentially, basically made it known he wanted to move on.”
Schefter added that the 49ers are willing to shell out a large sum to retain Samuel, but the 26-year-old stud is putting up a massive wall between them.
“San Francisco would pay Deebo Samuel today, tomorrow, the next day. It’s not hard to figure out what the contract would look like. We’ve seen some of the top numbers in the league. This, I think right now, is Deebo Samuel not wanting to get a deal done. It’s not San Francisco not willing to do the deal, the 49ers are ready. Deebo Samuel is the one who has put a halt to everything for right now.”
Samuel enjoyed a career year with the 49ers last season, getting a nod to the All-Pro First Team and making it to his first Pro Bowl.
