Not all hope is lost for the 49ers and wide receiver Deebo Samuel.
Despite a rift between the two sides that led Samuel to skip the start of the team’s organized team activities, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport on Monday told the Pat McAfee show that the chasm between San Francisco and Samuel is fixable.
“I think they can get it settled,” Rapoport said to a loud reaction from McAfee. “I don’t believe it is settled right now. There’s a lot of work that has to be done. When a player asks for a trade, basically says he does not want to be there, and it has nothing to do with the contract – because remember he basically told them, ‘Don’t offer me a contract. I’m not going to take it. I want to be traded.’ There is some work that has to get done.
