Deebo Samuel’s trainer hints at possible new contract with 49ers
Deebo Samuel may be close to a major payday with the San Fransisco 49ers.
After scrubbing his social media accounts of any 49ers references earlier this offseason, it seemed that Samuel was unhappy with San Fransisco and would not play for the organization again. He has since re-followed the 49ers on Instagram. He also reported to mandatory minicamp in June. Now, Samuel’s trainer may have shared a potentially positive hint about the status of Samuel’s contract negotiations heading into training camp.
On Tuesday, Samuel’s trainer and Combat Sports Academy gym owner Mujeeb Hamid posted a video on his Instagram story of himself with Samuel. What Hamid said in the video seemed to indicate that the negotiations could be over very soon.
“Yessir,” Hamid said. “We about to get paid. Nah, nah, [Samuel] about to get paid.”
The Athletic’s David Lombardi thought that the video was a positive development for Samuel’s contractual status with the 49ers.
