49ers in Five: Kyle Shanahan defends Deebo Samuel's down year

Kyle Shanahan defends Deebo Samuel's down year San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan defended the play of WR Deebo Samuel yesterday, even going so far as to say that the receiver's dip in production is due to everyone around him having a worse year than last year. Shanahan also defended Ricky Pearsall's lack of production in his rookie season. Plus, Fred Warner shared Kyle's message with the team this week, and Dre Greenlaw says he's ready to "whip Miami's ass."
