Cameras caught San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel putting his hands on two of his teammates during Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in an incredibly bizarre moment.
49ers kicker Jake Moody had a rough day against the Bucs today, missing three important kicks during the contest. After he missed a 44-yarder with three minutes to go, Deebo Samuel finally lost it.
Cameras showed a frustrated Samuel grabbing the neck of 49ers long snapper Taybor Pepper before also throwing a left-handed swipe at Moody’s head:

Samuel’s frustrations are understandable, but you can’t take it out on two teammates like that. At any rate, Moody wound up kicking the game-winning field goal as time expired to help San Fran escape with a 23-20 victory.
The 49ers will try to improve to 6-4 when they host the Seattle Seahawks at Levi’s Stadium next Sunday.
Deebo Samuel Was Floated In Trade Rumors Before Deadline
Deebo Samuel was mentioned as a possible candidate to be moved before Tuesday’s trade deadline, but the 49ers opted to keep the All-Pro wideout for another Super Bowl run. Samuel had five catches for 62 yards in Sunday’s victory.

Recently, Wembanyama graced the cover of Sports Illustrated, where he shared insights into his basketball journey. During the interview, he candidly discussed how his perspective on some NBA stars has changed over time.
“I think both in a good and bad way it’s how truly the best in the game are. How in a good way some of them are really impressive and inspiring in the way they approach the game every night,” Wembanyama said.
“But others that I used to like, and now I’m just like, nah. I’m not sure that they deserve you know. They don’t seem like they put as much work as I thought,” he added.
