Rumors are flying, and it’s tough to tell what’s true and what’s not in this day and age. When it comes to the San Francisco 49ers, hearing about them offering wide receiver Deebo Samuel in a trade makes sense, given their salary cap situation and his contract.
That doesn’t mean the 49ers are down on Samuel. This is a business, and when you make an offseason plan or map out what will get you back to the Super Bowl, dealing one of your better players, while difficult, might be what’s best for your organization in the long run.
