Breaking: Deebo Samuel’s Silence Sparks Speculation About His Satisfaction With Performance
The San Francisco 49ers had hoped that this season was the one wherein they would get over the Super Bowl bump and beat the Kansas City Chiefs to win it all. Unfortunately, fate had other plans. The team has dealt with setbacks since the start of the season starting with the injury news of Christian McCaffrey . Despite his return, the offense has not looked dominant like it did last season.
The team has dealt with glaring inconsistencies throughout the season and sits at the bottom of the NFC West with a record of 5-6. For wide receiver Deebo Samuel , it has been a year filled with injuries and frustration. He was out for six games this season and is averaging a career-low 3.4 catches per game.
In the team’s loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, Deebo Samuel caught just one pass. The wideout is frustrated with the condition of the team and it was evident from the expressions on his face in the locker room. He was asked by reporters if he was happy with the way that he had been playing. His response as reported by NBC Sports was, “I’m not going to speak on that.” Deebo was not having any of it, he had higher expectations from himself and knew that he has not been playing well.
Deebo Samuel remains optimistic about the 49ers playoff hopes
The wide receiver still has some faith in his team. Despite being 5-6, Samuel believes San Francisco can take back control of the NFC West. The Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals lead the division with a 6-5 record.
At the end of the day we’re 5-6 right now, and we know we’re better than what the record shows. We’re one game away from still winning our division.
Deebo Samuel added
The question is if San Francisco can close in on them this Sunday or risk widening the difference to 2 games. The 49ers go up against Josh Allen and the Bills, one of the most dominant teams in the NFL whereas the Seahawks face the 3-8 Jets and Arizona takes on the Minnesota Vikings.
From the above matchups, San Francisco has the lowest odds to beat its opponent considering how they have played so far this season. For Deebo Samuel, this season has been challenging . He has been targeted 56 times and has 34 receptions with 1 rushing touchdown. He is yet to catch a touchdown from Brock Purdy this season and this is just one of the many issues that have resulted in the 49ers disintegrating.
