One of the unresolved issues of the NFL offseason took another turn Tuesday when receiver Brandon Aiyuk, unhappy with the lack of a contract extension, reportedly requested a trade from the San Francisco 49ers.
It's unusual for a player as good as Aiyuk to be available, if he will actually be available. Aiyuk had 75 catches for 1,342 yards last season on a loaded 49ers offense. Justin Jefferson recently signed a contract worth a record $35 million per season and while Aiyuk is unlikely to match that, his extension is going to be massive.
