Brandon Aiyuk kept dissing the San Francisco 49ers throughout the offseason, expecting the team to move on from him so he could join the Washington Commanders, his preferred landing spot.
However, the situation has only worsened for him. As he awaits a resolution of some sort, 49ers general manager John Lynch's unusual response to questions about the wide receiver on Monday quickly became a talking point in the NFL community.
Aiyuk previously blamed part of the tension between himself and the 49ers on his former agent, Ryan Williams, who has a friendship and business relationship with Lynch. During a YouTube video in June, Aiyuk also alleged that Lynch visited his home partly to apologize for the actions of head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Nothing has changed between Aiyuk and the 49ers since then, as the wide receiver remains under contract with San Francisco but is currently listed on the Reserve/Left Squad list. In practical terms, Aiyuk is no longer involved with the team.
The situation became even more interesting when Lynch was asked about Aiyuk on Monday, and he had a hilarious reaction.
