Every few days, Brandon Aiyuk does something on social media to remind people that he's unhappy with the pace of his contract negotiations with the 49ers. Now, Aiyuk just posted a still image of the Washington Commanders' practice film.
does something on social media to remind people that he's unhappy with the pace of his contract negotiations with the 49ers. Just a couple of weeks ago he went on The Pivot Podcast with Ryan Clark and said that while his first choice is to sign a lucrative extension with the 49ers, he would be happy to play for the Washington Commanders or the Pittsburgh Steelers as well.. If you didn't know better, you'd almost think he's on their team and learning their offense.
Of course, he's still under contract with the 49ers and most likely got the Commanders film from Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels, who is one of Aiyuk's closest friends -- they played together at Arizona State. If anyone were to ask Aiyuk why he posted this image to his TikTok, he can always say he was just supporting his friend.
But we know he'd be open to play for Washington. And by posting a picture of their practice, he almost seems like he's begging the 49ers to trade him to the Commanders so he can play with his friend. Or it's been a few days since Aiyuk was in the news and he wants people to talk about him some more because he has come to love the attention he has received this offseason.
Either way, it seems highly unlikely that the 49ers will trade Aiyuk to Washington or anywhere this year.Grant Cohn has covered the San Francisco 49ers daily since 2011. He spent the first nine years of his career with the Santa Rosa Press Democrat where he wrote the Inside the 49ers blog and covered famous coaches and athletes such as Jim Harbaugh, Colin Kaepernick and Patrick Willis. In 2012, Inside the 49ers won Sports Blog of the Year from the Peninsula Press Club.
