Samuel is heading into the final year of his rookie deal with a $4.9 million cap hit in 2022.
The 26-year-old is looking for a new contract after a breakout 2021 campaign where he earned his first Pro Bowl selection and was named first-team All-Pro. He finished with 1,405 receiving yards, 365 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns.
The production continued in the playoffs with 291 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns while helping the 49ers reach the NFC Championship Game.
This would be a huge loss for the 49ers.
