SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The 49ers are all paid up on Deebo Samuel. Time to settle in for his yards-after-cash show.
Unwilling to grant Samuel’s April trade request, the 49ers are finally rewarding him with a three-year, $73.5 million contract extension, as first reported Sunday by NFL Network.
The deal is not officially done but it’s “very close,” according to a league source.
