The relationship between the San Francisco 49ers and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has deteriorated, with general manager John Lynch stating Aiyuk has likely “played his last snap” for the team. Aiyuk, who missed the entire 2025 season due to ACL and MCL injuries, faced communication issues with the organization, leading to his placement on the PUP list and eventual contract guarantees being voided.

Moving forward, Lynch indicated the team would consider trading for a new wide receiver to enhance the roster.
