Brandon Aiyuk “thought he may sign” extension in April according to WR coach

The San Francisco 49ers have been embroiled in contract extension talks this offseason with star wideout Brandon Aiyuk, who is currently scheduled to play the 2024 season on the fifth-year option.

While several high-end receiver deals have occurred over the past few months, Aiyuk and the 49ers have not come to an agreement yet, but the two sides were apparently close to a deal back in April.

Speaking on 95.7 The Game this week, Aiyuk’s wide receiver coach T.J. Houshmandzadeh thought that there was a chance he could’ve signed a deal a month and a half ago when the wideout was more optimistic, but things have turned the opposite direction since.
