AIYUK'S EXTENSION FINALLY GETS DONE AFTER 49ERS TURN UP HEAT
All that changed on Wednesday when 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch spoke about wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. They were done playing games. And they made that point abundantly clear when they took their spots behind the lectern at Levi’s Stadium.
“At some point you have to play,” Lynch said of Aiyuk. One day later, Aiyuk decided it was time to play. Aiyuk on Thursday finally agreed to the four-year, $120 million contract offer that, had been on the table since Aug. 12. The contract sat there, collecting dust, for 17 days. Some within the organization wondered if Aiyuk simply could not make a decision. The sides were apparently close to a new contract early in the offseason.
