jayden daniels sends two word message to deebo samuel after commanders

One of the first major trades of the 2025 NFL offseason just went down as the San Francisco 49ers traded Deebo Samuel Sr. to the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Commanders’ quarterback, Jayden Daniels, was indeed in need of a receiving threat alongside Terry McLaurin, and after Samuel’s trade, let’s see what he had to say. While Samuel is coming off of a down season (career lows in receptions per game and on-field target share), he remains the type of versatile weapon valued at a high level in this league... His 93 games of NFL experience are a nice addition to the young offense with an impressive ceiling. Daniels is excited to throw to Samuel, and after the trade became official, he shared a two-word message on his Instagram story.

This move not only gives Daniels another reliable pass catcher but also elevates their team profile relative to the competition they are likely to face in high-leverage spots for years to come (the NFL’s... The San Francisco 49ers officially agreed on a trade to send wide receiver Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders ahead of free agency. Samuel, who's coming off his sixth year with the 49ers, requested a trade from San Francisco and was ultimately dealt for a fifth-round draft pick. After the Commanders' announcement about acquiring Samuel from the 49ers, Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels took to social media to send his newest offensive weapon a message. Daniels will now be playing alongside one of the most versatile receivers in the NFL, Samuel, who was previously named an All-Pro and Pro Bowler in 2021.

For a player like Deebo Samuel, goodbyes were never going to be simple. He wasn’t just another player for the 49ers—he was a weapon, a statement, a versatile machine who could bulldoze through defenders one moment and glide past them the next. San Francisco fans had spent years watching him turn short throws into touchdowns and bruising runs into highlight reels. But in the NFL, sentiment rarely stands in the way of business. Now, the jersey changes. Burgundy and gold replace red and gold.

In their latest offseason move, the Niners have traded their WR in a deal with the Commanders. The 29-year-old has packed his bags for Washington, and it’s finally time to leave San Francisco for good. And there, a young quarterback is waiting. Jayden Daniels knows what Deebo brings to the table, and he’s wasting no time making sure his new weapon feels at home. The LSU alum and 2024 ROTY is excited to welcome his new teammate to the Commanders squad. ESPN broke the news on their official IG handle only a few hours ago, captioning, “BREAKING: The 49ers have agreed to send WR Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round...

And it looks like the bromance has already started between Jayden and Samuel. The WR responded to Jayden’s welcome message with another story captioning, “Let’s get to it, gang!!!” The Commanders’ spirits are already high with acquiring their new WR. Deebo also posted a farewell video as the headlines of him leaving the Niners broke out. The WR shared a video of his journey with the Niners, which included clips from some of his best moments with the team. The 29-year-old played with the Niners for six seasons, making it to the Super Bowl twice. He couldn’t win either, losing both times to the Chiefs.

The South Carolina alum’s 53 rushing yards on just two carries in Super Bowl LIV were the most ever by a WR in Super Bowl history. The 2024 season wasn’t exactly a standout one for the team. Samuel, too, finished with 51 receptions for 670 yards. As the 2025 NFL Combine winds down in Indianapolis, the Washington Commanders find themselves as the talk of the league after trading for longtime San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel. The Commanders entered the offseason in search of reinforcements alongside All-Pro Terry McLaurin to help rising star quarterback Jayden Daniels continue to ascend. After being linked to Chris Godwin and Tee Higgins, Washington was instead able to part with a fifth-round pick to land Samuel.

Some players need music, others need mayhem. Just ask John Henderson, who once demanded to be slapped across the face to feel alive. Or Michael Strahan, who talked to his socks as if they held secrets. Brian Urlacher? He swore by a cookie before every game. It’s something we call locker room secrets.

But somehow, all these rituals are well-documented. And get this, when a rookie from LSU enters the pros, rattles defenses all year, and still looks like he’s just strolling through a Saturday scrimmage? Folks start to wonder what’s really going on behind the scenes. We’re talking about the Offensive Rookie of the Year and the Commanders‘ quarterback, Jayden Daniels. Daniels recently sat down with Dr. Christopher Walsh, a board-certified internist at VHC Health Primary Care, where he talked about his ability to stay steady under pressure.

“After pre-game warm up, I get back in the locker room and first thing I do, I call my dad, no matter what, if he’s at the game, he’s not, I call him and... Jayden’s dad, Javon Daniels, is a former Division I college football player turned steadfast mentor. The Washington Commanders sent a perfectly clear message to the rest of the NFL before the start of free agency. Coming off a shocking run to the NFC Championship they made it clear their successes would not be a flash in the pan. Washington traded for wide receiver Deebo Samuel, dealing him away from the San Francisco 49ers. That move set the tone for an aggressive offseason that saw the Commanders act on several other occasions to fortify their supporting cast.

This expedited rebuild back to contention quickly changed the complexion of the budding Jayden Daniels era in Washington. The Commanders now have expectations to contend for a conference title once again. Samuel's addition helps the team progress toward that goal. Despite the explosive nature of the offense last season, Washington lacked a true No. 2 wideout. Samuel not only checks that box but also possesses a diversified skillset.

Daniels hopes that skillset will help him minimize his workload from time to time as he joked at Fanatics Fest this past weekend.
