As the new NFL fiscal year began, the San Francisco 49ers experienced significant roster changes, highlighted by the trade of star player Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders. The team confirmed other notable departures, including defensive tackles and fan-favorites, while making modest acquisitions. The addition of wide receiver Demarcus Robinson, despite pending legal issues, marks one of the few changes to aid in the roster's reshaping. This turnover raises questions about how the team will adapt strategically heading into the new season.
The 49ers confirmed Samuel's deal as well as the release of defensive tackles Javon Hargrave and Maliek Collins, after the 49ers already terminated the contracts of fullback Kyle Juszczyk and defensive end Leonard Floyd.
Among the deals that couldn't be ratified until Wednesday's start of the NFL year was the 49ers' trade of Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders for a fifth-round draft pick.
The 49ers' turnover includes several fan-favorites, leaving a notable impact on their roster and raising questions about their upcoming season strategies.
One player not arriving is defensive end Joey Bosa, who agreed to join the Buffalo Bills (one year, $12.6 million) rather than join his younger brother Nick on the 49ers.
