San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk is expected to stay with the team and not be traded to the Washington Commanders "at this stage," according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels, and embattled San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk, apparently have had a beef on social media. Aiyuk wanted to play with his former Arizona State teammate, as he has had a very public contract dispute with his current team. It was thought he would eventually land in Washington, the only team to show any remote interest in him, but after Aiyuk insulted Daniels' mother, who is also his agent, that landing spot might no longer be in the cards. "Enjoy retirement, pal," Daniels posted on social media, tagging Aiyuk, before pulling it down later.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk has been self-destructive, and he might have talked his way out of the league. No team is likely to touch a player coming off a major injury, public contract dispute and, really, erratic behavior. Daniels will be a solid fantasy option in 2026, with or without the mercurial receiver.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk said he would sign with the Washington Commanders if the 49ers release him.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk has missed a lot of time, and his tumultuous ending with San Fran is eventually coming. At this point, though, he's a lottery ticket WR4 or WR3 in fantasy.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk could be of interest to the Washington Commanders, according to Jason La Canfora of SportsBoom.com. According to one anonymous NFL general manager, the Commanders are looking to bolster their receiving depth before the start of training camp.
Huddle Up: The 28-year-old Aiyuk hasn't suited up for an NFL game since Week 7 of the 2024 season, when he sustained a torn anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in his knee against the Kansas City Chiefs. He is unlikely to play for San Francisco again after guaranteed money in his contract for the 2026 season was voided last November and the Niners have been unsuccessful to date in attempts to trade him. If Aiyuk lands with a new team this offseason, he could be worthy of consideration as a WR3 or WR4 option in fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk seems unlikely to be traded, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk and the 49ers have been at odds for over a year, and even if they can't find a trade partner for Aiyuk, it seems unlikely that he will ever suit up for San Francisco again. If the 49ers opt to simply cut Aiyuk, he will be worth stashing for when he finds a new home. After all, he topped 1,300 receiving yards in 2023.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk might show up to organized team activities (OTAs), which would force the team to take him off of the reserve/did not report (R/DNR) list.
Huddle Up: It's almost 100 percent certain Aiyuk won't be a member of the 49ers, but reporting would force their hand, as they'd owe money to a player they do not want. The team added veteran star Mike Evans, and he'll join Ricky Pearsall and draft pick De'Zhaun Stribling, so there wouldn't be a big role for him even if attitudes miraculously changed.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk was not traded during the 2026 NFL Draft, but general manager John Lynch still hopes to move the receiver. "No new update right now," Lynch said regarding Aiyuk on Saturday during his post-draft news conference, per team transcript. "We're available. Give us a call. And like I said earlier, I think it's the prudent thing to do. He's an extremely talented player. He's been an extremely effective player in our league; situation didn't work itself out here."
Huddle Up: Aiyuk missed the 2025 season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament, and his exit has been rumored for a while since he landed on the reserve/left squad list in December. With Mike Evans coming in, joining Ricky Pearsall, and the team adding De'Zhaun Stribling in the draft, there is no room on the roster for the disgruntled receiver. He could resurface as a fantasy option if he lands in the right situation. Stay tuned.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk is expected to receive interest from the Washington Commanders if he is released this offseason.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk is not expected to remain with the 49ers but it is not known if he will be traded or released. The Commanders do not have a lot of experience behind Terry McLaurin, so Aiyuk would likely have a big role if he joined the team. He can be a No. 3 or No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues depending on his situation.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk has been the subject of some trade decisions recently, but general manager John Lynch said he does not believe an Aiyuk trade will happen this week.
Huddle Up: Aiyuk is unlikely to remain with the 49ers, so fantasy players can monitor his situation during the offseason to see if he joins a new team. He is a reliable receiver when healthy and can be a possible No. 3 or No. 4 receiver in 2026.
Posted: 4/02/2026 8:45 pm GMT
San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk's future with the team is uncertain at this point, but owner Jed York is not ruling out the possibility of Aiyuk playing for the 49ers in 2026.
Huddle Up: The 49ers will likely be moving on from Aiyuk at some point this offseason, but he is still on the roster at this point. He should have a solid role wherever he plays in 2026 and can be a No. 3 receiver in a majority of leagues if healthy.
