Did Brandon Aiyuk's agent hint at him signing with Commanders?
“I think that, in all likelihood, Brandon would probably sign with a team that knows him, somebody that has somehow been affiliated with him either in college or the 49ers,” Rosenhaus said on the Pat McAfee Show.
- After hiring agent Drew Rosenhaus and applying for reinstatement to the NFL, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was finally reinstated on Tuesday.
- Aiyuk posted numerous videos on social media wearing Commanders’ gear, saying he wanted to play for Washington, while taking personal shots at the 49ers, especially GM John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan.
- Also, Washington general manager Adam Peters has a relationship with Aiyuk, as he previously served as San Francisco’s assistant GM before going to the Commanders in 2024.
The Commanders haven’t completely abandoned the idea of adding wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, who was rumored during the summer to end up in Washington, according to sources.
“A former coach, maybe a former player that he played with, somebody that knows him." Was Rosenhaus openly telling everyone that Aiyuk was headed to the Commanders?
- However, over the summer, Aiyuk even took aim at Daniels, specifically his relationship with his mother, who is his agent.
- We would be glad to go and workout for interested teams if he is released by the San Francisco 49ers" @DrewJRosenhaus #PMSLive https://t.co/TZdcyM4eKH pic.twitter.com/q9AGDFivFU — Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) November 10, 2026 Rosenhaus said Aiyuk passed a physical with the 49ers and is 100% healthy.
- It led multiple NFL insiders to say they don’t think the Commanders would sign Aiyuk now.
- Aiyuk, of course, has made it clear he wants to play for the Washington Commanders.
- “That’s just my guess.” That is, of course, if the 49ers release him as expected.
