Brandon Aiyuk was drafted in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft. That means he’s set to play the 2024 season on his fifth-year team option.
Many players in this situation – including Aiyuk – are looking for a new contract. But so far, the 49ers haven’t given him so much as an extension, let alone a full new contract.
Perhaps Aiyuk will report to the team and record his third straight season with 100 catches & 1,000 receiving yards.
To this point, though, Aiyuk has been very outspoken about his disillusionment with his contract situation. Receivers have certainly held out for less.Â
