The 49ers had a big win on Sunday against the Bears, but 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel did not do much.
In a since-deleted social media post, the San Francisco 49ers wide receiver addressed people who said he was struggling. He made it clear that he was not struggling; he just wasn’t receiving the football.
“Not struggling at all, just not getting the ball!!!!!!!” Samuel wrote.
The explosive plays are seemingly gone, and his overall production has dipped far below the standard set by the former All-Pro.
Deebo Samuel would soon delete that post because the community note attached to it destroyed him.
It read, “He leads the team in drops. He is struggling,” while it provided a link.

Ouch.
On Tuesday, 49ers general manager John Lynch appeared on Bay Area radio station KNBR to discuss Samuel’s struggles.
Lynch acknowledged that the team’s use of Deebo Samuel has been mimicked by other teams, which has made defenses better adapt to defending a versatile player such as himself.
“I think people are becoming more familiar with it,” Lynch said. “Deebo’s a really good football player. He’s created such a high standard for himself that, I think, frustration mounts. But he’s made so many plays for us.
“I think we’ve got to give this guy some grace and bring him along because we need him the rest of the way. We’re going to need him Thursday night.”
The 49ers and Deebo Samuel face a quick turnaround following Sunday’s victory over the Chicago Bears.
The team will play host to the Los Angeles Rams at Levi’s Stadium on Thursday night, aiming to even their record at 7-7.

Deebo Samuel Put On Blast After Being Caught Cheating on His Girlfriend (PICS)
At this point, if you’re a woman dealing with a professional athlete who has a ton of money, you should know that he has a lot of options, and getting into a relationship with them will likely have you going down the same path as many others before you. Understand the situation you are in, and you could either deal with it or let that man cheat in peace.
With that being said, Deebo Samuel is being outed as a cheater this week after a young woman posted the San Francisco 49ers WR on her close friends story on Instagram.
It started when somebody leaked the photo:

“you bitches in my close friends are clowns and haters. lmao weirdos”
She then added she had no clue Deebo was in a relationship.
“I was told he was single. I’m not a home wrecker and I was not aware. I would never post a taken man when I got cheated on for 4 years. I wasn’t even the one that recorded the video. I thought it was cute. I didn’t know half of what I found out today. It it what it is.”
This past Sunday, Samuel did not have his best game when the 49ers took on the Chiefs. Samuel had five catches for 42 yards and one rush attempt on Sunday in a 44-23 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The 49ers (3-4) will look to fight off the Rams (3-3) Sunday with Los Angeles coming off of its bye.
