Trent Williams predicts Samuel's best career season in 2026 after slow free agency.

Trent Williams predicts Samuel will have the best season of his career in 2026, believing the adversity of a slow free agency and doubt about maintaining his physical style of play will fuel a career-best performance. Williams stated: "Deebo is such a talented player, I think this might be the first time he's ever faced adversity in his career where he may have felt doubted as a player. So I think we probably getting the best Deebo the league has ever seen." If Williams' prediction materializes, Samuel would surpass his 2021 Pro Bowl season when he posted 1,770 combined rushing and receiving yards with 12 touchdowns. The 30-year-old's return to San Francisco and familiarity with Kyle Shanahan's system should allow the versatile receiver to thrive.
