Deebo Samuel just covered a good part of his body with ink to honor some of the biggest icons in sports and entertainment.

The ex-49ers star traveled to Arizona to get tattooed by Andres Ortega — aka “Zero by Andres Ortega” — and the artist told The California Post he spent around seven hours etching some portraits into the wide receiver’s legs during sessions a few weeks ago.

On one leg, Samuel got images of Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King Jr. and more.

On the other, Samuel paid homage to his young son with shots of the toddler, Sonic the Hedgehog and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Samuel appeared to be thrilled with how it all came out, as he showed the ink off in a series of pictures Ortega shared on his Instagram page over the weekend.

Samuel, who played for the Niners from 2019 to 2024 before joining the Commanders last season, is currently a free agent, though Ortega told The Post the two didn’t talk much about football or Samuel’s future plans.

But the artist did say it’s his understanding is Samuel is training hard for the upcoming season — now with his hamstrings looking flashier than ever.
