LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - AUGUST 23: Wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. #1 of the San Francisco 49ers walks off the field after warmups before a preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium on August 23, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Chris Unger/Getty Images)
A familiar face is back with the San Francisco 49ers.
Veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel signed a one-year contract worth up to $7 million with the 49ers on Thursday.
Samuel was a second-round pick by the 49ers in 2019 and played the first seven seasons of his career with the franchise. Samuel was traded to the Washington Commanders during the 2025 offseason for a fifth-round selection, but is back in San Francisco just one year later.
The addition of Samuel was needed due to injuries at the position. Per The Athletic's Matt Barrows, 49ers receiver Ricky Pearsall currently has knee swelling and receiver Christian Kirk injured his calf in the 49ers' first practice.
