As the saying goes, the wise man knows he knows nothing, and the fool thinks he knows all. Apparently, we’re all geniuses because it’s become abundantly clear we don’t know a damn thing about what’s happening with Deebo Samuel right now.
NBC’s Chris Simms and ESPN’s Adam Schefter have both reported that the source of the issue with Samuel is not, in fact, money. Simms said Deebo doesn’t want to live in California, and Schefter said Deebo would prefer to play closer to home in South Carolina.
That is neither an uncommon nor an unreasonable request.
