OT Niners to cut Brandon Aiyuk at season end?

[Russ Smith]

All over local and now national media. Apparently he's been skipping mandatory meetings and other sessions and the 49ers got so fed up they told him he'd violated his contract and they're going to waive him at the end of the season. So weird how often Wr's just go nuts.

I mean I like the player but that is highly unprofessional if true.

Mr. Bad Contract

Niners are getting enormous cap savings from this. This idiot violated his contract so blatantly that he isn't even going to contest that he should be getting any of the voided guarantees.

The Niners get away with a lot of mistakes.

Niners' Shanahan admits Aiyuk's contract situation 'unusual'

Niners coach Kyle Shanahan alternated between offering insight and declining to provide specifics on wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk's status with the team, a situation that he characterized as "extremely unusual."

That's called organizational excellence.

And I am so jealous. Every year being at the bottom of the NFLPA card is just a gut punch. This level of incompetence is maddening.

I'm guessing he got his signing bonus, which is all that matters.
He'll get another big signing bonus as a UFA

49ers GM John Lynch says WR Brandon Aiyuk has played his last snap in San Francisco

Aiyuk was an All-Pro in 2023, but his relationship with the 49ers corroded in the years since.

What a idiot

[football karma]

dont you have to wonder about his head?

love the guy on the field, but he makes Pickens looks like Larry Fitz

 

[Shane]

could absolutely hurt. Guy is clearly a head case.

Yes, but he would make MHJ not the most disliked receiver...

 

[Proteus]

Yes, but he would make MHJ not the most disliked reciever...

Would that be allowed?

Maybe he just needs a fresh start to get his sh*t together.
If he passes a medical and his knee is rehabbed…
Bring him in for a 1 year prove it contract.
What does this team have to lose? We’re already at rock bottom!

We just worked to establish a decent culture as an Org...that culture was staggered during the season then rocked.
Our next staff will have to work hard to maintain stability and a calm professional atmosphere in order to recover from last season and continue changing the core of the organization.
Adding a disruptive player to the locker room could flush whatever progress we have made right down the toilet.
Especially when he is known to be highly competitive, outspoken, of a disgruntled disposition,...and in direct competition with our highly drafted WR we are still working to salvage.
.
I'm gonna go with no.
Aiyuk wasn't popular around San Francisco when he was starting and things were going well.
Dude would be a disaster in Arizona.

I'm avoiding Aiyuk like the plague.

However I would be interested in bringing a different 49er in Jennings who is a tough physical WR. Kind of the anti MHJr to add some toughness to the WR room.
