49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk said that if San Francisco releases him he’ll sign with the team “ tomorrow, ” according to Field Yates . “ And if I’m crazy or if I’m cappin’, tell them boys cut me today. And I’ll sign with the Commanders tomorrow. ” San Francisco has been trying to move on from Aiyuk this offseason, but they have held off on releasing him just yet to see if they can recoup any compensation in a trade. He was recently arrested for a misdemeanor speeding charge after filming himself driving over 100 mph in a 40 mph zone back in December of last year. Aiyuk received a four-year, $120 million extension before the 2024 season, but has played in just seven games since due to injury, and he had all of his guarantees voided after cutting off communication with the team at points. The Commanders have been the most connected team to Aiyuk because of his relationship with QB Jayden Daniels . Aiyuk, 28, was a one-year starter at Arizona State and earned first-team All-Pac 12 in his final season. The 49ers traded up with the Vikings to select him with the No. 25 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. He signed a four-year, $12,531,342 rookie contract that included a $6,673,703 signing bonus. The 49ers picked up his fifth-year option last year that cost them $14,124,000 fully guaranteed for the 2024 season. Aiyuk officially agreed to a four-year, $120 million extension that includes $76 million guaranteed after a lengthy period in which he was nearly traded to the Steelers. In 2024, Aiyuk appeared in seven games for the 49ers and caught 23 passes for 351 yards receiving and no touchdowns. We’ll have more on Aiyuk as the news is available.
