When I saw the quote, it looked bad. But TBH watching the vid, he sounded more self deprecating about it. People are taking it like he's laughing at the team. It sounded to me like the obvious situation is the Niners have far higher priorities and a limited amount of money, and hes like 4th best RB on the roster at best.
He's probably thinking "Im almost 30, I just got paid big money to be hurt for several years, and the team has about 30 bigger priorities and limited funds. Theres not a chance im back."

I couldn't quite understand him. If all he said was "no, f**k no, we gone"..... this is potentially misunderstood. It could easily just be that he understands there's zero chance he comes back.
The question was "are you coming back" not "do you want to come back.
Either way, deebo didn't really laugh at it and appeared to want to quickly move on from the topic

as for Deevah, hey you gotta respect that guy for showing us his future attitude!!
Punks stay w/them Punks !!!
Deebo can be a part of that Watson deal. He seems to be the on social media a little to much. I'm sure Shanahan and Lynch have taken notice. He needs to be training himself and getting into better shape this offseason not involved in the business side of the 49ers.
Deebo knew exactly how McKinnon would answer and promoted that negative message about the team that is currently employing him.

yeah, you can see he was shocked by the answer, its fine probably he feel he doesnt have a chance to play here and also i dont think he is good enough to play for us...
spend the money on the good players that will contribute.

Using the "F - word in any kind of interview situation is almost guaranteed to sound and look bad, in context or not.

I mean, I can understand if he says something like this because he knows chances are they won't offer him. For all the criticism that may be where this is coming from.
But indeed the way he responded makes it sound like he feels unappreciated or that he's not going to get enough opportunities. Well, if you want more of a role, you have to earn it and ya didn't. If you want more money, yeah maybe there's a team out there that will sign you as there generally is. But it's not likely to go a lot better for you.
Contrast that with Sherman, who seemingly in his own mind is also gone. But it isn't so much because he wants to be and if it could work out for him to stay, he probably would. He's handling it the right way and McKinnon isn't. And this is Richard Sherman whom we despised for his attitude in Seattle. Obviously we don't anymore. But it really is something.
