Aiyuk vs 49ers Contract Standoff | San Francisco 49ers News
Description
Brandon Aiyuk is walking away from the San Francisco 49ers, declaring he’s done with the team for 2026 after they voided his contract guarantees — a move he says was based on false claims about missed rehab sessions following his brutal ACL, MCL, and meniscus tear last season. Aiyuk insists he met recovery milestones ahead of schedule and refuses to return, even though he’s still under contract. The 49ers placed him on the Reserve Squad List in December, but haven’t released him — leaving him stuck between his public exit and his legal obligation. With the season looming, this standoff could reshape his future — and the team’s roster — unless a resolution emerges.
