There’s a lot going on right now in the NFL. The fun of training camp is the bustling enthusiasm of the coaches, the players and the media. But it also makes it difficult to cut away the fiction from fact. It’s hope season and hype season. It’s also the season for catastrophe and doom. A…
There will be a second Deebo Samuel era in the Bay Area. The San Francisco 49ers and Samuel agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $7 million, ESPN reported Thursday evening, bringing back the 30-year-old for another run in the red and gold. Samuel last played for the 49ers in 2024 before a trade…
