Behind the Steel Curtain on Deebo Samuel
From the article
Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox named free agent wide receiver Deebo Samuel as a potential fit for Pittsburgh... his ability to contribute as both a receiver and a runner has allowed him to top 800 scrimmage yards in six of his seven campaigns.
STACKED’s take
Knox names Samuel as logical Steelers fit; 6,000+ career scrimmage yards and versatile role.
Kristopher Knox identifies Deebo Samuel as a logical free agent landing spot for the Steelers. Samuel has recorded just one season of 1,000+ receiving yards but has topped 800 scrimmage yards in six of his seven NFL campaigns, demonstrating consistent versatility as both receiver and runner. Over his career with the 49ers and Commanders, he has totaled 6,000+ yards from scrimmage and 43 touchdowns. His ability to line up all over the formation—as slot receiver, ball carrier, and screen-game option—could complement Pittsburgh's transformed offense and create mismatches. However, injuries and reduced role have impacted recent production, and his health history should factor into decision-making.
