The Brandon Aiyuk soap opera took a new turn yesterday.
Indeed, at the request of the 49ers player, a meeting took place between the franchise and Aiyuk reports Tom Pelissero.
The Goal: to put things straight and move forward.
“Aiyuk and 49ers officials met Monday at Aiyuk’s request,” https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1806012466226200617?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1806012466226200617%7Ctwgr%5Ecac41011eb91973305304b94fe916e77eeb7dbdd%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Flarrybrownsports.com%2Ffootball%2Fbrandon-aiyuk-49ers-meeting-details%2F635257. “It was a good meeting. From what I’ve been told, both sides have said what needs to be said, and they will continue to work. It is important to note that there was never a trade request from Brandon Aiyuk. That hasn’t changed. The 49ers’ position hasn’t changed either. Although they have received trade requests for Aiyuk since draft week, they are moving forward and want Aiyuk on the team in 2024.
“What I anticipate is that all parties involved will enjoy the Fourth of July holiday and get back on their feet a little later. They still have several weeks ahead of them to see if they can find an agreement that will allow Brandon Aiyuk to make a long-term commitment to San Francisco. »
The 49ers also made a point of reminding Brandon Aiyuk that a trade was never on the table. This discussion appears to mark a step forward between the two sides as previous reports indicated more of an impasse than anything else.
Aiyuk caught 75 passes for 1,342 yards and 7 touchdowns last season for his second straight 1,000-yard season.
