Even after agreeing to trade Deebo Samuel, San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch hasn’t publicly ruled out the possibility that Aiyuk could be gone next.

A new rumor is that two teams are already contacting the 49ers about the star wide receiver.

The Patriots and Panthers are among the teams who have reportedly reached out.

The report says the 49ers would like a deal done for Brandon Aiyuk prior to April 1st.

The New England Patriots still need a top wide receiver amid missing on big names in free agency. The emergence of Drake Maye means they need to give him weapons in order to succeed.

The Carolina Panthers’ offense would get a huge boost if the team were able to get Aiyuk.

Bryce Young had a resurgent 2024 season that gives hope for the future.

49ers Latest Signing Could Signal Massive Trade of Brandon Aiyuk

The San Francisco 49ers are reportedly considering a Brandon Aiyuk trade and that was made more evident last week when they signed a new wideout.

Former Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson signed with the San Francisco 49ers on a two-year, $9.5 million deal, including $6 million fully guaranteed.

Robinson, who spent the past two seasons with the Rams, had 31 catches for 505 yards and seven touchdowns in 2024, playing in all 17 regular-season games and two playoff games.

With limited cap space, San Francisco already traded Deebo Samuel and cut several veterans, but Aiyuk might still see himself on the way out.

Brandon Aiyuk played only seven games last season due to a season-ending knee injury.
