Washington Commanders Explore Trade for Aiyuk

Brandon Aiyuk's potential trade from the San Francisco 49ers has gained renewed attention following the Washington Commanders' recent trade of Jahan Dotson to the Philadelphia Eagles. NFL insider Mike Silver indicated that the Commanders remain a plausible destination for Aiyuk, previously linked with the Pittsburgh Steelers as well. With Aiyuk's market value estimated at $27.1 million per season, the 49ers have refrained from accepting trade offers, despite prior permission for Aiyuk to seek deals. His connection with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, a former college teammate, heightens the interest for the Commanders. As the regular season approaches, the urgency for a resolution increases, with Aiyuk's $14.1 million salary for the year adding to the stakes. The situation remains fluid as the 49ers weigh their options regarding the star wide receiver.
