Deebo Samuel has proven himself to be one of the most versatile in dominant weapons in all of football this season. Deebo bullied the Cowboys defense in Sunday’s 23-17 Wild Card win. On Wednesday, 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel spoke on Samuel’s captivating playoff performance. Highlighted for a 26-yard cutback touchdown run.
“I’ve never, ever, ever been around a player that’s called his own shot…” McDaniel said. “That was a special moment that only a special player could accomplish.”

Samuel gained 110 total yards on 13 touches Sunday. Running the ball 10 times for 72 yards and a TD, while also catching three balls for an additional 38 yards.
The 49ers’ WRB1 has looked like a man among boys against defenses in 2021. At 6-feet, 215-pounds Deebo regularly bowls over linebackers and safeties. And relishes in man-handling cornerbacks after the catch.
