On Wednesday, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel spoke about how he had talked about a possible trade with his agent this offseason. Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer joined The Rich Eisen Show to discuss the 49ers wide receiver situation as we head into the 2024 regular season. In Breer’s mind, Brandon Aiyuk remains a priority:
“Given their druthers—this is just me talking—I think they would keep Brandon Aiyuk over Deebo Samuel. And I think it’s because Brandon Aiyuk is more of a traditional number one receiver who can beat man coverage, who you can build an offense around.
