REPORT: San Francisco 49ers seeking “escape hatch” to Brandon Aiyuk trade.

The San Francisco 49ers are reportedly exploring the possibility of trading wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, just months after signing him to a lucrative contract extension.

According to multiple sources, the 49ers are now looking for a “escape hatch” from the deal, which has proved to be a costly mistake for the team. “The 49ers are realizing that they overpaid for Brandon Aiyuk, and now they’re trying to find a way out of the situation,” said one league source.

The decision to seek a trade for Aiyuk comes after a disappointing season in which the wide receiver struggled to produce on the field and was plagued by injuries and off-field issues.

The situation has left many observers wondering whether Aiyuk can live up to the high expectations that surrounded him when he signed his contract extension, and whether the 49ers can find a way to recoup some of the value they lost in the deal.

“This was supposed to be a win-win for the 49ers and Brandon Aiyuk, but it’s turned into a real mess,” said one NFL analyst.

While the 49ers have yet to officially confirm that they are shopping Aiyuk, several teams have reportedly expressed interest in the wide receiver, with the Bears, Giants, and Patriots all said to be in the mix.

However, it remains unclear whether any of these teams will be willing to give up the necessary draft picks or players to make a trade work, and whether the 49ers will be able to get the kind of return they are looking for.

“This is a tricky situation for the 49ers, and it’s going to be interesting to see how they handle it,” said one league insider.
