Deebo Samuel called himself
a "wide back" this past week. That's because he's a wide receiver that can play running back and do it well. The Dallas Cowboys are experiencing this first hand in the NFC Wild Card playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers.
With his 49ers holding onto a 16-7 lead in the third quarter, cornerback K'Waun Williams picked off Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, getting the football back for the offense. On the next play, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo handed the football off to Samuel, who made some magic happen and ended up in the end zone for a 26-yard touchdown.
San Francisco currently leads 23-7 with under six minutes left in the third quarter. Should the 49ers win, they will travel to Green Bay next week to face the Packers in the Divisional round of the playoffs.

Mike Silver on how Deebo Samuel's contract might be the starting point for a Brandon Aiyuk extension
With the 2024 NFL Draft less than a week away, it's common for the rumor mill to start churning, especially with players who are actively seeking a new contract. It was just two short years ago that WR Deebo Samuel requested a trade from the San Francisco 49ers prior to draft day, only for cooler heads to prevail and eventually agree to a new deal.
Now, it's WR Brandon Aiyuk's turn to try and get paid and rumors surfaced over the weekend that he too would request to be dealt. While that report was quickly shot down by his agent, there's still a lot of discussion about Aiyuk's future and if other teams will come calling on draft night.
