Brandon Aiyuk Trade Rumors Heat Up Amid 49ers Cap Crunch

The San Francisco 49ers are considering trading wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk as they face a tight salary cap situation, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers among potential suitors.

The 49ers are exploring trade options for Brandon Aiyuk due to a projected salary cap of just $570,837.
Aiyuk, entering the final year of his contract, is seeking a lucrative deal, potentially out of San Francisco's financial reach.
The Buccaneers, with $43.6 million in projected cap space, are a leading contender, offering draft picks and long-term contract potential.
Other teams, including the Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans, are also in the mix, each with significant cap space and a need for a top receiver.
49ers GM John Lynch faces a dilemma in trading Aiyuk, especially to his former team, the Buccaneers, amid fan base concerns.
