San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk led all receivers with at least 40 catches with a 70.5-percent receiving success rate in 2023.
Huddle Up: The stat requires the player to receive 40 percent of the yards needed on first down, 60 percent of the necessary yards on second down and 100 percent of the yards on third and fourth downs with targets the denominator. Aiyuk is in line to get paid this offseason with one year left on his deal. He ended the year as the WR13 in PPR leagues, and that doesn't quite feel like his ceiling. He's a slam-dunk WR2 in next year's drafts.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk told reporters on Tuesday, Feb. 13, that he would like to remain with the team "if it's the right move" as he enters the final year of his rookie year contract in 2024. When asked what that exactly meant, Aiyuk noted he wanted to win a Super Bowl first and foremost.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk is likely (and understandably) still reeling from the Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in which he managed only three catches. He is hardly to blame for the loss, however, as the 49ers typically do not play with enough pace to feature all four of their dynamic weapons in every game. Expect San Francisco to get something done with Aiyuk before the start of next season and find a way to help him improve on the 75-1,342-7 line he posted in 16 games in 2023.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel (shoulder) will practice in a limited fashion on Thursday, Jan. 25.
Huddle Up: After a DNP to start the week, this upgrade theoretically gives Samuel a decent chance to suit up for the NFC Championship Game versus the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Unlike last week when it appeared Samuel was going to be highly involved, he could take a backseat to Brandon Aiyuk given how much Detroit struggles against perimeter receivers. There is also a distinct possibility that Samuel is used more as a decoy as well.

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (calf) practiced in full on Tuesday, Jan. 16.
Huddle Up: McCaffrey's Week 17 calf injury was deemed minor at the time. Today's practice will be his first on-field work of any kind in about 2 1/2 weeks, which should be more than enough time for CMC to recover from the injury. Barring an in-game setback, expect CMC to handle his usual 20-plus touches and finish as the highest-scoring running fantasy back on the slate in the NFC Divisional Round game against the Green Bay Packers this weekend.
