According to NFL insider Jason La Canfora, the San Francisco 49ers are expected to release wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk before the start of training camp. This decision follows the team's inability to secure a suitable trade partner for the player. The reports emerged on October 6, 2024, in Santa Clara, California, highlighting the current status of Aiyuk's tenure with the franchise as the organization moves toward releasing him from his current contract obligations.
