San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been traded to the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round pick, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter. This ends Samuel's six-year tenure with the 49ers and he will now become a major target for Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels.

The Washington Commanders are in the market to upgrade their defensive line. The addition of Trey Hendrickson would certainly be an upgrade. It might cost the Commanders a high draft pick to secure his services from the Cincinnati Bengals.

Ertz had his healthiest season in years in 2024 while playing all 17 regular-season games and scoring seven touchdowns.

The decision was expected after the team couldn’t find a trade partner for Allen, who has spent his entire eight-year NFL career in Washington.
