SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- As he awaits his long-coveted payday, San Francisco 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk has tried multiple methods to coax the team into getting a deal done this offseason. Throughout that time, Aiyuk declined to ask for a trade. Until Tuesday.

As the Niners prepare to report for training camp next week, Aiyuk officially requested a trade, sources confirmed to ESPN. The sides have been discussing the parameters of a big-money extension since March but have yet to find common ground as other star wideouts around the league have cashed in and driven Aiyuk's price higher.
