It’s looking highly unlikely that a Deebo Samuel trade from the San Francisco 49ers will be the latest blockbuster during a crazy NFL offseason.
Despite the star wide receiver skipping voluntary workouts and creating somewhat of a buzz regarding his status in San Francisco moving forward, 49ers general manager John Lynch would be foolish to trade the offensive weapon.
According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic, inquiries from other teams about a potential Deebo Samuel trade have been brushed aside by the 49ers’ brass.
A second-round pick of the 49ers back in 2019, Samuel is entering the final year of his rookie contract. The South Carolina product is looking to cash in big time after the lucrative long-term deals the likes of Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams and Stefon Diggs received earlier this offseason. For good reason. He’s coming off an absolutely dominating 2021 campaign en route to leading San Francisco to the NFC Championship Game.
