A video of 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel denying an autograph to a camper at his football camp in Spartanburg, South Carolina went viral Friday. On Saturday the story took a turn for the better as the 49ers wide receiver cleared the air on what happened with the young autograph-seeker.
Samuel took to Twitter to explain that his camp had over 400 kids in attendance which didn’t permit him to autograph personal items. The child in the video, Jeremy Lowe, was hoping for Samuel to sign a football with a 49ers logo. It turns out part of the camp was every attendee getting a picture with Samuel along with an autographed photo.
FlexWork Sports is proud of Deebo Samuel’s impact in youth sports. Deebo said “To provide structure, education & motivation to youth in my home state of SC is a daily reminder dreams do come true.” He was humbled to interact w/ Jeremy Lowe, sign a photo & take a picture w/ him. pic.twitter.com/IOtdUm20nI
