The San Francisco 49ers bring Deebo Samuel back into the organization as he prepares for the 2026 season after signing a one-year deal at the end of July. Both outlets describe his return as part of the team reshaping its receiving group and reuniting him with familiar people from his earlier time in San Francisco.
The reporting also places Samuel within a broader context of reunion with former teammates. The New York Post highlights that Samuel is linked again with several ex-49ers, including offensive tackle Trent Williams, who expects Samuel to have a standout year and make the biggest impact of his career. Yahoo Sports similarly frames the move as Samuel returning to an “old friend” environment, though it focuses more generally on the anticipation around his next season rather than quoting specific expectations beyond the overall prediction theme.
