Meanwhile, the wideout has not been happy since earlier the 2024 campaign about not receiving enough targets in the aerial attack, but it makes sense why that\u2019s the case. The 49ers were always teasing either releasing or trading him to a team that needs another pass catcher.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">\n<div id=\"FreeStarVideoAdContainer\">\n<div id=\"freestar-video-parent\">\n<div id=\"freestar-video-child\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Samuel was the subject of trade rumors during the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2024\/10\/24\/49ers-jacob-cowing-can-shrink-the-hole-left-by-brandon-aiyuk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Brandon Aiyuk<\/a>\u00a0extension talks but General Manager John Lynch made it clear he\u2019s not looking to trade either of them. Following a disappointing 6-11 season last year, the 49ers are in the position to put quarterback Brock Purdy in the driver\u2019s seat as their leader for many seasons to come. However, Samuel is no longer a part of those plans since his days were coming to an end when the 49ers got wide receiver Rickey Pearsall in last year\u2019s draft. San Francisco will wait until the last minute and if they cannot find a trade partner then it might be likely he\u2019ll become a free agent by June 1st.<\/p>\n<p>Because of Samuel\u2019s name, he should have plenty of suitors but it\u2019ll be one to look at what type of contract he could receive. No one should expect to pay him big money because of his downward production, he might as well take a discount to play for a contender such as the Chargers, Ravens among the many options for him.<\/p>\n<h2>49ers Putting Star Wide Receiver Deebo Samuel on Trade Block \u2013 Chargers, Ravens Among Top Logical Fits<\/h2>\n<h3>Next Five Possible Teams<\/h3>\n<h4>Los Angeles Chargers<\/h4>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-24\">\n<div id=\"lwos_incontent_1\" align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x250\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/15184186,22512265771\/lwos_incontent_1_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Head Coach Jim Harbaugh should put offense as their No. 1 priority this offseason. The only capable wide receiver is second-year\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2024\/04\/14\/teams-that-could-draft-mcconkey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Ladd McConkey<\/a>\u00a0while Quentin Johnston has been depleting. Joshua Palmer will become a free agent so this means Deebo Samuel could easily carve out a role opposite of McConkey to boost the momentum of the game.<\/p>\n<h4>Baltimore Ravens<\/h4>\n<p>As for the Ravens, they haven\u2019t found a dependable receiver option since parting ways with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2023\/12\/12\/week-15-streamers-odell-beckham-jr-jerick-mckinnon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Odell Beckham Jr.<\/a>\u00a0last offseason. Baltimore brought in Diontae Johnson to assist Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman in Lamar Jackson\u2019s passing attack but plans fell through after his\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fansided.com\/diontae-johnson-steelers-spy-duties-ruining-ravens-locker-room-suspension\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">locker room antics<\/a>. The Ravens should take a risk on Samuel which may bring out the spark in him that the 49ers were looking for when he broke out in 2021.<\/p>\n<h4>Kansas City Chiefs<\/h4>\n<p>Assuming what happens this upcoming free agency, the Chiefs will attempt to re-sign most of their wide receivers. DeAndre Hopkins and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2024\/03\/22\/2024-fantasy-football-marquise-brown-dynasty-outlook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Marquise Brown<\/a> are two big names they can\u2019t afford to lose but if one winds up with another team next year, many should expect to be in the market for a new pass catcher. Samuel has similar characteristics to Xavier Worthy\u2019s speed but with more experience, the Chiefs will be in good hands.<\/p>\n<h4>Washington Commanders<\/h4>\n<p>Since Josh Harris took over ownership in Washington, they have been building something special for the Commanders. Under Quarterback Jayden Daniels\u2019 wing, the team might be in the market for a big-name receiver to pair with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2021\/07\/11\/terry-mclaurin-fantasy-football-profile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Terry McLaurin.<\/a>\u00a0There would be no better way but for the Commanders to take advantage of this opportunity to swing in Samuel as part of their formidable offense.<\/p>\n<h4>New England Patriots<\/h4>\n<p>Just like the Commanders, the Patriots will probably have a stellar season under quarterback Drake Maye. However, the receiving department looks bleak even though they have many, so the league should expect them to sign a consistent receiver this free agency. Kendrick Bourne\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/2025\/02\/kendrick-bourne-makes-plea-for-patriots-to-obtain-star-receiver-on-trade-block\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">may part ways next month<\/a> so this means getting someone like Samuel should be a significant upgrade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco 49ers are officially putting wide receiver Deebo Samuel on the trade block once again &#8211; here are five possible fits.
