Since the trade was reported, Samuel posted a farewell video highlighting his time with the 49ers. Multiple teammates have reacted to the trade, including All-Pro tight end George Kittle, who commented on the post with a salute emoji and red heart emoji.

Versatile wide receiver Deebo Samuel will be playing his football in the nation’s capital next season after the San Francisco 49ers agreed to trade him to the Washington Commanders for a fifth-round draft pick.

George Kittle then reposted the photos online, tagging his wife, Claire Kittle, to ask her thoughts on the 49ers' post. "Claire Kittle, which is your favorite," George Kittle said. Claire Kittle then reposted the comment on social media, sharing her kind response to the question.
