Deebo Samuel was traded from the San Francisco 49ers to the Washington Commanders in March, ending a nearly three-year quarterback-receiver relationship between him and Brock Purdy.
It was difficult for Purdy to lose his star receiver on the field, and also lose his close friend off the field. It sounds like the two players have a very special bond, especially for how welcoming Samuel was to Purdy back in 2022 when he stepped in for Jimmy Garoppolo to become the team's starter.
