[Wagoner]Will the 49ers trade, release or keep WR Brandon Aiyuk?

I can’t wait for this AB thing to be over.
Do whatever is least convenient for him financially and professionally. Dude is a disgrace to The 49ers and the G.O.A.T. WR who played for them for pennies compared to what this guy got paid for 1 really good season.
i can’t believe this is still going on.
I’m tired of reading about this piece of shit.
“San Francisco will be taking on a $13.325 million dead cap hit in 2026 and a $21.247 million dead cap hit in 2027 with this expected release plan, Wagoner shared, according to [OverTheCap.com](https://overthecap.com/player/brandon-aiyuk/8765).”
He’s likely going to be cut and we’ll eat the dead cap space for 2 years. The better question is, does the front office go after his signing bonus that was already paid. There are precedents of teams clawing or recouping money already paid to player due to missed playing time, depending on how they structured his contract and workout bonuses. See, AB and Raiders for a more recent case.
We’re not doing him any favors is what we’re doing. We’ll hold out until the last minute and then release him.
I sincerely do not care. He’s never, ever, not ever taking a snap as a niner again. If we can get a 5/6/7 round pick, ok fine. But he’s done here. And probably in the NFL as a whole
IDGAF!!!
Tbh I would love for him to be committed to playing but I think that ship has sailed. Juan is also another question
You know I don’t really care anymore
My biggest problem is what to do with his jersey
Is he trade-able???

The way he’s acting I’d keep him on the roster. To my understanding they are not on the hook financially as he failed to report. If I’m wrong that may change my thoughts.
Should have cut his ass the first time he sat out.

As discussed here in detail: [https://www.reddit.com/r/49ers/comments/1qj92zo/can_49ers_get_more_than_just_the_guarantees_back/](https://www.reddit.com/r/49ers/comments/1qj92zo/can_49ers_get_more_than_just_the_guarantees_back/)
