SAN-FRAN-CISCO! Thanks for watching the 49ers Report by Chat Sports. On today’s show, we get into the latest 49ers news around Deebo Samuel following the 49ers back on Instagram and some 49ers rumors on Julio Jones and JC Tretter. The Deebo Samuel contract situation resulted in a lot of Deebo Samuel trade rumors, which led to Samuel requesting a trade. Now that Deebo followed the 49ers back on Instagram, does that mean that things are cooling down and he’ll be part of the 49ers roster?

Pro Football Focus (PFF) thinks that Julio Jones would be an excellent fit for Kyle Shanahan in the 49ers offense. Even tough he’s coming off a couple of injury-riddled seasons, where Julio Jones highlights have been limited, the Niners might be able to sign him to a cheap contract. JC Tretter rumors also continue to swirl. Is Alex Mack going to retire? If so, the 49ers might need a center.

Kyle Shanahan on Deebo Samuel Rumors During 2022 NFL Draft
“You'll consider anything. You have a responsibility to help your organization the most you can. But losing a player like Deebo, it's hard to see how that helps your organization. So you try to look into all the aspects of it and what people are willing to do, and nothing was even remotely close to what we thought would be fair to us or fair for the Niners.”

The 49ers drafted SMU wide receiver Danny Gray in the back end of the third round in addition to signing Ray-Ray McCloud in free agency, but it's hard to say that's enough. At 33 years old with consistent appearances on the injury report…

PFF (On Julio Jones)
Jones is no longer in the 'best receiver in the league' conversation like he was for most of his NFL career. But that doesn't mean he can't still be a productive contributor to an offense… The 49ers didn't reunite Julio with Kyle Shanahan last offseason when he was available, but the price might be more attainable for San Francisco this time around.
