SUMMARY
- The Kansas City Chiefs secured their fourth Super Bowl title by defeating the San Francisco 49ers.
- Philadelphia Eagles star Fletcher Cox took to Instagram to mock 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel.
Philadelphia Eagles star Fletcher Cox has brutally mocked Deebo Samuel following the San Francisco 49ers defeat in the Super Bowl LVIII. The San Francisco 49ers faced the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in the championship game at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Following the 49ers’ defeat, Cox has spared no quarters in rubbing the defeat in the face of 49ers star Deebo Samuel.
The Kansas City Chiefs successfully defended their Super Bowl title, defeating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22. In what was a thrilling encounter, it was Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes‘ heroics in the overtime that handed the Chiefs their fourth Super Bowl title. The Chiefs made further history after becoming the first team in the past 20 years to win back-to-back Super Bowls.
Shortly after the match ended, the Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox took to his Instagram account to mock Deebo Samuel. Cox took a swipe at Samuel and wrote on his Instagram story, “Eat a d—k.” He further warned Samuel to keep the name of the Eagles out of his mouth. In addition to this, he further reminded the 49ers wide receiver that he is still to win a Super Bowl title.

Cox won the Super Bowl LII in 2017 with the Eagles after defeating the New England Patriots in the final. The 33-year-old came close to winning the Super Bowl again last year but was agonizingly defeated by the Chiefs in the Super Bowl LVII. Unfortunately for Samuel in today’s game, the 49ers wide receiver suffered a hamstring injury and struggled during the game.

Meanwhile, Fletcher Cox’s brutal trolling of Deebo Samuel comes in the aftermath of the latter’s comments about the Philadelphia Eagles. Samuel was recently asked to weigh in on the feisty encounters between the Eagles and the 49ers. In recent times, the 49ers and the Eagles faced each other in last year’s conference championship games.
The Eagles managed to comfortably defeat the 49ers 31-7 before losing the Super Bowl against the Chiefs. However, the 49ers didn’t have to wait long to get their revenge. During the regular season game last year, the 49ers managed to defeat the Eagles 42-19. Referring to their last match result, Samuel boldly claimed that he doesn’t consider the Eagles as the 49ers’ rivals.
“I consider rivalries close games. We ain’t going to talk about that no more. That’s over with.” – Deebo Samuel about the Eagles during media day on Monday night

Samuel played a stellar role in that match, scoring two receiving touchdowns and rushing to score another. The 28-year-old said, “I consider rivalries close games. We ain’t going to talk about that no more. That’s over with.” He also went on to state that if the 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy had been fit in the conference championship game, the Eagles couldn’t have defeated them.
