Deebo Samuel will soon be back at work for the 49ers.
Samuels, the star who spent training camp negotiating a new contract, has agreed to a three-year extension, according to multiple reports.
He is reportedly worth $71.55 million, including $58.1 million guaranteed. While the full structure of the contract has yet to come out, the underlying numbers are nearly identical to the three-year, $72 million contract that DK Metcalf just signed with the Seahawks.
Samuel is coming off a breakout season in which he caught 77 passes for 1,405 yards and led the league with an 18.2 yards-per-catch average while rushing the ball 59 times for 365 yards and eight touchdowns. The 49ers want to build a big offense around new starting quarterback Trey Lance, and they think Samuel and Lance will be a great combination for years to come.
