Brandon Aiyuk Remains Estranged from 49ers
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk remains away from the team, and he is not currently part of the team's 90-man roster. The relationship appears to be severed beyond repair. Aiyuk missed the entire 2025 season due to a knee injury and missed ensuing rehab sessions, voiding nearly $30 million in guarantees. The 49ers moved Aiyuk to the reserve/left squad list in December of 2025, and that is where he remains. In January, San Francisco's general manager, John Lynch, said that Aiyuk most likely "played his last snap" for the 49ers. Aiyuk must formally apply for reinstatement to be released or traded, but he has publicly said he won't. In his last taste of NFL action (back in 2024), Aiyuk caught just 25 passes for 374 yards over seven games. Things remain at a standstill, and as a result, Aiyuk has no value in redraft leagues right now. At best, he is a dynasty stash in deeper formats

What's next for Brandon Aiyuk after Commanders sign Stefon Diggs
Brandon Aiyuk's trade prospects may have diminished with the Commanders signing Stefon Diggs, as another potential destination appears closed for the disgruntled wide receiver who remains on San Francisco's reserve list
general
Stefon Diggs to sign with the Commanders
Wide receiver Stefon Diggs has found his next NFL team. According to multiple reports, Diggs will sign with the Commanders. A report late last month indicated Diggs was intrigued by the chance to play with quarterback Jayden Daniels in Washington and he will now get a chance to do that. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the one-year deal will be worth up to $12 million. The move to sign Diggs comes after the Commanders spent the offseason being mentioned as a landing spot for disgruntled 49ers wideout Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk openly discussed his desire to join the team, but Washington and San Francisco never made a trade and Aiyuk remains on the 49ers’ reserve/left squad list for the time being. Diggs said this offseason that there is no No. 2 wide receiver in the league better than him and he’ll now get a chance to prove it while playing with Terry McLaurin in the Commanders offense

Brandon Aiyuk Remains on Left-Team List
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) remains on the team's Reserve/Left-Team list during training camp, meaning he doesn't count against the team's 90-man roster, and he isn't being paid, according to Spotrac. To be removed from the list, Aiyuk will have to submit a letter to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell seeking reinstatement. His contract still contains $26,662,370 of dead cap, which comes from his previously paid signing and option bonuses. If the 49ers release the former first-rounder in the coming weeks, they will take on dead-cap hits of $7,363,790 in 2026 and $19,298,580 in 2027. It looked like there might be an opening for Aiyuk to return to San Fran when Ricky Pearsall (knee) was lost for the season, but the return of Deebo Samuel Sr. quickly put an end to that. General manager John Lynch said back in January that the 28-year-old would never play for the organization again after badmouthing the team and failing to rehab at the team's facilities last year. The Washington Commanders were mentioned as the best potential fit for Aiyuk for most of the offseason, but that ship has sailed after they inked veteran Stefon Diggs to a one-year deal on Wednesday. Aiyuk's fantasy and real-life stock has hit rock bottom
