Brandon Aiyuk, the 49ers leading receiver in 2023 and seventh overall in the league with 1,342 yards, has officially put in his request to be traded to a different team. The report comes from NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo on Tuesday, noting that the two sides have been at a contract extension stalemate for months and that recent meetings have done nothing to bridge the gap.
It would appear that Aiyuk won’t play for the 49ers again unless he has a new contract in place and it also seems that San Francisco isn’t interested in giving him what he wants.
