The\u00a0San Francisco 49ers\u00a0are sticking to their position of trying to trade Brandon Aiyuk instead of releasing him. The wideout is viewed as a possible fit for the\u00a0Washington Commanders, especially because of his past connection with Jayden Daniels from their time at\u00a0Arizona State.<\/p>\n

Despite the Niners taking this stance, former\u00a0NFL\u00a0player Emmanuel Acho believes no team should be lining up to trade for or even sign Aiyuk if San Francisco decides to release him.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cHell no [teams shouldn\u2019t want Aiyuk],\u201d\u00a0Acho said on the April 27 edition of \u201cSpeak Easy.\u201d\u00a0\u201cBrandon Aiyuk hasn\u2019t shown us that he still wants to play football. BA is a really, really good wide receiver. To me, he was a top-12 wide receiver at his height.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut at the end of the day, if you quit on a team like the San Francisco 49ers, it probably has the best vibes in football over the last six seasons since Kyle Shanahan has shown up there. If you can quit on your brothers, who can\u2019t you quit on?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

49ers\u2019 Brandon Aiyuk Can\u2019t Be Trusted<\/h2>\n

Moreover, Acho went into detail on why it wouldn\u2019t make sense for any team to pursue Aiyuk, given that he let some prominent 49ers players down with his actions last season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s one thing if you go to a place and you quit on a team where the vibes are putrid, no chance at winning, losing organization. But you quit on a San Francisco 49ers team that perennially goes to the playoffs, a team\u00a0that\u2019s\u00a0led\u00a0by its locker room, led by its players, led by its Brock Purdy, its Trent Williams, its Fred Warner.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cTrent Williams wants to play football and he\u2019s like 38 years old and BA, you not trying to play and you in your prime, it does not make sense. You cannot force someone to love the game of football.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Teams Get Another Reason to Stay Away From Brandon Aiyuk<\/h2>\n

Aiyuk wasn\u2019t motivated to be part of a team looking to contend\u00a0and\u00a0Acho also notes that money wasn\u2019t a motivating factor for the wideout to\u00a0get back on\u00a0the field last season.\u00a0As a result, he\u2019s likely warning contending teams to let someone else take a chance on him.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIf money cannot convince Brandon Aiyuk to love the game of football, and money is the greatest love language in all of football, then nothing can convince Brandon Aiyuk to love the game of football. So, for my money, nah, I wouldn\u2019t want to touch Brandon Aiyuk, not right now.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet somebody else take a chance on BA. Let somebody else throw him a $4.5 million deal with incentives worth up to $9 million, and if he balls, I\u2019ll think about it. But there ain\u2019t no way right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since coming into the NFL in 2020, Aiyuk has had 294 catches for 4,305 yards and has scored 27 touchdowns,\u00a0per StatMuse. It will be interesting to see if it\u2019s the Commanders or another team that decides that they want to take a gamble on Aiyuk, whether they end up trading for him or waiting out the 49ers to release him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
