49ers UPDATE: Asante Samuel Jr
As far as Asante Samuel, he visited for a try out. They’re going to see where he’s at. You know, I’d love to see them sign him. I don’t know that he’s going to help. I think the, you know, Dimma Lenor got toasted for two touchdowns yesterday. Renardo Green’s getting picked on. These guys are pretty good corners, you know, and they’re not coming off of major neck injuries and they’re getting toasted because there’s no there’s no push. There’s no pass rush up front. The quarterback’s unaffected by the Niners front. So, I’m not sure if this is the spot to come for Asante Samuel, but I’ I’d be interested if he’s healthy. Supposedly, he’s had neck injuries, some concussions. It’s got to be checked out. They want to see where he is physically. Obviously, a bunch of teams feel the same way. They want to get that peak at him. We’ll see. I wouldn’t hold your breath on that one. That’s that’s what I would say about that. I wouldn’t hold your breath.

Would it be worth signing him, he gets healthy & next year he can be productive?
I had so much hope for this draft class.
They blew it
Playing cornerback in the NFL without a solid pass rush is a recipe for either lots of pass interference or plenty of opponent touchdowns. Some of the more dubious pass interferences I've seen this year in the league have been called against the 49ers defensive backs. Basically, they get no respect and, likely, will not get any any time soon.
They aren't going to do anything
That pass rush was nonexistent last game, you can't blame the secondary, our secondary looked good when we had bosa,warner,williams.
Signed with Steelers
Why would he want to play on an injury cursed team?
What ever happened to Gipson our safety from years ago could use him right about now
He already signed with the Steelers!
He’s a Steeler
Welcome too Pittsburgh Asante Samuel Jr
Sign a bunch of pissed off fans we'll run over the offensive line 😂😂😂😂😂
Another injury prone player. Niners has no pass rush
Our secondary got burned by nauca and Devante Adams @larry
Jed do you want to win a Superbowl?
Steelers signed him
Both years the 49ers were in the superbowl they had all pro corners. Not saying Asante is that, but it’s a start. Enough with the d line stuff that is nothing but injuries
He went to the Steelers
They should sign him with the intention of him being ready for next year.
Sign him for next year
So basically u sayin they can’t hold their coverage…even if it ain’t no push up front the DBs still should be able to keep their coverage and they not..most receivers against them is gettin 3-4 yards of separation before they catch the ball or they wide ass open…what it is they gettin burnt and that’s the problem
No pressure
He went to the Steelers I think lol
He sign with Greenbay
Great point no pash rush
I still have PTSD from Jason Verrett 😢
