With just under one week until the NFL Draft is set to kick off, perhaps the craziest NFL offseason to date got even crazier. As first reported by ESPN’s Jeff Darlington, 49ers star wide receiver Deebo Samuel has asked for a trade.
Samuel has long left a sour taste in New England Patriots’ fans mouth since entering the league. After being selected four picks after N’Keal Harry in the 2019 NFL Draft, he has become one of the league’s most dynamic and explosive playmakers. In just 44 career games, he has posted 3,668 yards from scrimmage and scored 23 touchdowns.
