## Resource

Brandon Aiyuk’s tense standoff with the 49ers is escalating, as he publicly vents frustrations and hints at a move to Washington — but former NFL exec Andrew Brandt warns that this drama is backfiring. Brandt argues that no team wants to sign a player who’s publicly attacking his current franchise, making Aiyuk a less appealing target. With the 49ers holding his rights and no money due until September, they’re playing the long game — hoping to force a deal by making him expendable. Brandt’s blunt: Aiyuk’s only realistic path to a new contract is if the 49ers cut him and he’s willing to sign a one-year deal to prove his worth — and even then, his market value is in serious doubt.
