Overview
- Aiyuk uploaded a YouTube clip showing him driving well over the speed limit near Levi’s Stadium and topping 100 mph on a nearby freeway in a Cadillac CT5-V.
- The 49ers placed him on the reserve/left squad list on Dec. 13, making him ineligible to play again this season.
- Kyle Shanahan said Aiyuk has been "extremely distant" since his 2024 knee injury and that the team has not heard from him in more than a month.
- San Francisco previously voided remaining guarantees in Aiyuk’s deal, a move that eases a trade or release, with some coverage suggesting rivals may wait to see if he is cut.
- Aiyuk tore his ACL, MCL and meniscus in Week 7 of 2024 and has not played since, and his recent video prompted public concern about his conduct and wellbeing.
