49ers Stand Firm Amid Brandon Aiyuk's Trade Request and Contract Dispute
Despite multiple trade offers and Aiyuk's demand for a lucrative extension, San Francisco appears unwilling to trade their star wide receiver.
- Brandon Aiyuk has requested a trade after failed contract negotiations with the 49ers.
- San Francisco has received interest from several teams, including the Patriots, Commanders, and Steelers.
- The 49ers hold leverage with Aiyuk under contract for 2024 and the potential use of the franchise tag in 2025.
- Aiyuk led the 49ers in receiving yards last season and seeks a contract comparable to top NFL receivers.
- San Francisco's financial constraints and focus on a Super Bowl run complicate the situation.
