In a post shared by the official "NFL UK & Ireland" social media account, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel recently hinted at something noteworthy on the horizon.

"Big news coming," Samuel said in the post.


Of course, this has sparked speculation, with some wondering if the star player might be hinting at a potential return to international play for the 49ers, given that the international social media account was used to share the video.

While the 49ers secured a victory against the Arizona Cardinals in Mexico City in 2022, their last game in London dates back to 2013, a win over the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium. In addition to that 2013 victory, the 49ers beat the Denver Broncos at the same venue in 2010.


The release of the 2024 NFL schedule is anticipated soon. However, it's already known that the Chicago Bears, Minnesota Vikings, and Jacksonville Jaguars will host international games in London. The Vikings are the only team the 49ers are scheduled to face on the road. Minnesota will host its game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The 49ers' most recent game against the Vikings was last season, and they lost 22-17 at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

Or perhaps the "big news" is something unrelated. We'll have to wait and see.

Samuel recently visited the McLaren Formula One team and met driver Lando Norris. Norris races under the British flag and won this past weekend's Miami F1 Grand Prix.
