Le’Veon Bell uses Steelers experience to give Deebo Samuel some free advice
Le’Veon Bell has chimed in on the Deebo Samuel drama with the San Francisco 49ers after he requested a trade.
Few people have forgotten about the beef between Le’Veon Bell and the Pittsburgh Steelers a few years ago. Could the same kind of situation be coming for Deebo Samuel and the San Francisco 49ers?
Earlier this week, Samuel requested a trade out of the Bay Area and now rumors are flying all over the place. Will he make his way to a new team, or could he even think about sitting out the campaign? If you ask Bell about this, he thinks Samuel needs to stand his ground.

Le’Veon Bell is showing Deebo Samuel support on social media
As you can see from that tweet, Bell is clearly referencing his issues with Pittsburgh for this situation with Samuel. However, Samuel’s production can’t be replaced by a ‘backup’, as the speedster has solidified himself as one of the most electric players out there, no question.
It doesn’t look like there’s any chance that the relationship between the two sides can be fixed, but San Francisco isn’t going to trade Samuel unless they get an offer that is head-turning. He won’t come cheap.
The front office and John Lynch understand Samuel’s value, which is why they’ll surely want multiple draft picks, including a first-rounder, for him. With the draft less than a week away, everyone will be waiting to see what happens with the wideout.
Bell will be paying close attention to this as well, as he wants San Francisco to do right by him. NFL fans should find out soon enough how this plays out for Samuel and the 49ers.
