The Pittsburgh Steelers' offer to Brandon Aiyuk is out.
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are pushing to land a deal with the San Francisco 49ers to acquire All-Pro wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. At this point, the 49ers are trying to get a deal done themselves, but if not, the Steelers are the last man standing. And more details have been revealed about their latest offer.if San Francisco caved and decided to move on. Currently, the main objective for the 49ers is to ink Aiyuk to a new contract, but no solid ground has been made on that front.
So, if Aiyuk doesn't end up in San Francisco this season, he'll seemingly become a Steeler. That means Pittsburgh gave up trade compensation to the 49ers, but it also means they're going to sign Aiyuk to a long-term deal themselves. There have been plenty of guesses about what the Steelers would offer Aiyuk, but now, according to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, that number is out. While the guesstimate was around $30 million per season, the real number is a bit lower, sitting at $28 million per year.
"The Patriots offered a deal in excess of $30 million per year. New England also has a rookie head coach, rookie quarterback, and sits on the other side of the country from where Aiyuk grew up, went to college, and has played as a pro. The Steelers’ offer was around $28 million per year that several other receivers got this offseason.
This is still a wait-and-see situation, but one that is coming closer to a resolution with each day that passes.
