Eric DeCosta dismisses the notion that the Ravens contacted the 49ers regarding a potential trade for Deebo Samuel, finding the report amusing

Deebo Samuel

A recent sports radio report alleging that the Ravens initiated trade talks with the 49ers for wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been refuted by Ravens General Manager Eric DeCosta.

DeCosta dismissed the report, likening it to fiction, akin to the stories he reads to children during his recent visit to a local elementary school.

“In regard to that specific report — I read ‘The Lorax’ last week at a local elementary school. I would probably put that report similar to that,” DeCosta remarked.

Contrary to the original report, which suggested that the 49ers declined the Ravens’ request, DeCosta clarified that there was no such request made in the first place.
