Brandon Aiyuk has been one of the more talked about players in the NFL this offseason.
This is due to a public dispute regarding a new contract.
He is entering the final year of his rookie deal and is seeking a new contract.
Earlier this offseason, in a TikTok video posted by Aiyuk, he was talking to Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels and said regarding the 49ers “They said they don’t want me back… I swear”.
However, most recently, Aiyuk told TMZ Sports at Los Angeles International Airport that he is ready to play for the 49ers despite no new contract.
We discuss whether Aiyuk will play for the 49ers this season and beyond and the chances that Aiyuk will be on a new team before or after the season.
Will Brandon Aiyuk Play For the 49ers This Season And Beyond?
Earlier in the offseason, it looked like Aiyuk would not remain with the 49ers.
The TikTok video he posted made it seem like his time with the 49ers was coming to an end quickly.
However, his tune has changed recently.
Despite being in the final year of his rookie deal without a new contract, Aiyuk told TMZ Sports he is ready to play for the 49ers this season.
It seems highly likely that Aiyuk will play the 2024 season with San Francisco.
However, after this year, it remains unclear if Aiyuk will remain a 49er.
This will depend on if the 49ers offer him a contract he is willing to accept.
Aiyuk could decide to test the market and become a free agent after this season.
Time will tell if Aiyuk will be a 49er after this season but as time goes on, it is looking more and more likely he will play for the 49ers in the 2024 NFL season.
What Are The Chances Aiyuk Is On A New Team Before This Season Or After This Season?
The chances of Aiyuk being on a new team this season decrease each day.
He stated he for sure is ready to play for the 49ers this season despite no new deal.
We are already in July and it seems highly unlikely a team will trade and acquire Aiyuk this late in the offseason.
However, after the 2024 season, the chances of Aiyuk leaving the 49ers are up in the air.
He could decide to test the market and become a free agent.
Earlier in the offseason, it felt like Aiyuk was ready to move on.
If the 49ers and Aiyuk are far apart on a new deal, he may just decide to not sign with San Francisco.
The chances of Aiyuk being on a new team after the season are significantly higher than him being on a new team before the 2024 NFL season.
