For some reason, Odell Beckham Jr. everyone’s attention by claiming that Deebo Samuel is leaving the San Francisco 49ers.
Well, we have some breaking news. Or rather, some information that is likely to be breaking news but is almost certainly not close to being factual. According to a very interesting tweet from Odell Beckham Jr. , Deebo Samuel heads to the New England Patriots and leaves the San Francisco 49ers behind.
It’s totally okay if you don’t believe him though.
Earlier on Saturday, it became somewhat clear that the 49ers weren’t too close to moving Samuel into the trade.
In the wake of the Beckham “report”, several reporters came out to debunk the rumor.

And yes, Samuel himself closes this kind of business.
To be perfectly honest, Beckham was probably just joking and joking around on Twitter. A number of sports fans do this regularly, it was only a matter of time before a professional athlete would actually do the same.

In the wake of this groundbreaking report, here’s how people on Twitter responded to “the news.”
Since Beckham is almost certainly having some fun online, it only makes sense that other people would make fun of this and have some fun with this situation as well.
The whole situation is strange. People generally aren’t used to these kinds of tricks from professional athletes, so many aren’t quite sure how to respond here. Given that this type of “information” may generally come from an anonymous account that is designed to appear as a legitimate source of information, it is interesting to see it come from Beckham himself.
But hey, a good thing everyone can parse through sarcasm, jokes, misinformation, and pointless rumors on the Internet. Nobody really believes everything they see on the internet, right?
