Brandon Aiyuk, a wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, picked an intriguing approach to end his X posting prohibition.
Aiyuk named Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin in a post on the social media platform, sparking speculation about his long-term future in the Bay Area.
Andrew Fillipponi, 93.7 The Fan in Pittsburgh claimed Tuesday that the Steelers “have looked into” a trade for the 26-year-old.
The general uncertainty derives from Aiyuk’s contract with the Niners, which is only for one more season.
“Aiyuk’s situation looms the largest over this 49ers offseason, and if they can’t find a way to a contract extension, the talented wideout could theoretically ask to be traded to a team that’s willing and able to pay him,” Dan Graziano, an analyst for ESPN, said in February.
