Deebo Samuel Is Still Dug In: NFL World Reacts
Despite there not being a trade this weekend, Deebo Samuel still wants to go to a new team.
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported the news on Sunday morning as Samuel is “dug in” on leaving the San Francisco 49ers. The trade request could also drag on since San Francisco isn’t interested in moving him right now.

Samuel made the headlines in a big way a couple of weeks ago when he officially requested a trade from the 49ers.
It was a move that a lot of pundits didn’t see coming, especially since he just had one heck of a 2021 campaign. He finished the season with 1,405 yards receiving and six touchdowns off 77 total receptions, plus rushed for 365 yards and eight touchdowns off 59 carries.
Some NFL fans don’t see him leaving San Francisco.
They’re not letting him go. https://t.co/9ReD6egZ0T

He wasn’t traded, and he dropped new #49ers merch… idk what to believe anymore. lol. Regardless, Deebo isn’t gonna get traded. If he REALLY wants out the best thing he can do is play this year and do a tag & trade. 49ers still hold the contract leverage https://t.co/Dvy7ZB8EyL

Too many people assumed the draft was the end of the Deebo saga. This is still going to linger for awhile.
In the end you have to hope they can make it work, but the there’s also a chance the 49ers missed their opportunity to get assets for him that would help the team in 2022. https://t.co/s2Rxwutp8u

It would be hard for the 49ers to part with him considering that they don’t have anyone on their roster that can do what he does.
We’ll see if more rumors start to pop up as this saga continues.
