Brandon Aiyuk claims 49ers ‘don’t want me back’ as contract drama festers
NY Post
The drama between Brandon Aiyuk and the 49ers doesn’t appear to be simmering down anytime soon.
Aiyuk, who’s hoping for a new contract after a career season in 2023, posted a TikTok video Monday, which showed him telling Jayden Daniels — his college teammate at Arizona State and the Commanders’ rookie quarterback — that the 49ers don’t want to retain him for next season.
“What happened bro,” Daniels said on a FaceTime call with Aiyuk.
“They said they don’t want me back… I swear,” the 26-year-old wideout replied.
“My boy!” Daniels, who was watching 49ers highlights in the clip, yelled before the pair started laughing.
Aiyuk’s video was captioned: “I’m laughing but I’m crying fr.”
