Disgruntled receiver Brandon Aiyuk expressed his frustration last week, stating that the 49ers do not want him back. However, today, the 49ers are meeting with Aiyuk, as reported by Ryan Clark of ESPN. The details of these talks are currently unclear. Aiyuk has been adamant about wanting a contract extension and had skipped the entire offseason program, including the mandatory minicamp. He is currently under contract for the fifth-year option of $14.1 million in 2024 but is reportedly seeking $30 million or more per year, leading to an impasse in negotiations.
Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson recently set a new standard in the wide receiver market with a four-year extension that averages $35 million per season, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL. Other receivers like A.J. Brown of the Eagles ($32 million per season), Amon-Ra St. Brown of the Lions ($30 million per season), and Jaylen Waddle of the Dolphins ($28.25 million per season) have also signed contract extensions this offseason.
Despite the contract dispute, Aiyuk had an impressive season last year, making 75 receptions for 1,342 yards and seven touchdowns. The negotiations between Aiyuk and the 49ers will be crucial in determining the receiver’s future with the team and his earning potential in the league.
