Brandon Aiyuk Reportedly ‘Comfortable’ Playing Elsewhere As Commanders, 49ers Had Trade Talks

As contract discussions drag on between the San Francisco 49ers and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, the fifth-year receiver is making it quite clear that he’s willing to move on if he can’t get what he feels he’s worth from the 49ers.

That’s according to ESPN’s Ryan Clark, who recorded a recent episode of “The Pivot Podcast” with Aiyuk that will drop later this week.

“He says he wants to be in San Francisco first but is comfortable playing elsewhere if that’s something that the San Francisco 49ers are willing to do via trade. And I will tell you this, when he sat with us, he did not walk into the room alone,” Clark said Monday on NFL Live on ESPN.
