San Francisco 49ers star Deebo Samuel has addressed the quarterback situation his side are facing.
The Californian team were on the cusp of reaching the Super Bowl for the first time since 2020, when they came unstuck by the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Conference Championship game in January. The five-time winners of the Vince Lombardi trophy lost 31-7, but were hindered due to injuries sustained by both of their quarterbacks.
Brock Purdy went down on the first series after tearing his ulnar collateral ligament and backup Josh Johnson was later knocked out during the Eagles game with a concussion. Samuel insists this is the only reason they missed out on playing in the Super Bowl and addressed what the team is doing to avoid another similar situation.
