49ers Trade Talks: Patience as Aiyuk's Future Unfolds

0:00On March 30th, the San Francisco 49ers seem set to move on from wide receiver Brandon Ayuk, but they're playing it cool and not letting him. Walk for free, head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear they want real value in a trade rather than just cutting him loose. Earlier this week at the NFL owners meeting in Phoenix on Monday, Shanahan told reporters the team is in no rush to pull the trigger on any deal. They're holding steady, waiting for the right offer to come along. This flips the script from earlier buzz that had the 49ers planning to release Ayuk when the league year kicked off. Insiders say trading him ain't easy with their weak leverage and his contract set up. The team already voided his guaranteed cash, so there's zero pressure to dump him without getting something back. That talented receiver is still technically on the roster, but they're basically shopping him around. Right now it's all about patience as the 49ers sit back and see who bites, keeping their options open for the offseason shake up. That's your NFL news today update, AI powered and always on.
