The 49ers only have themselves to blame for their current contract impasse with Brandon Aiyuk. Talks between the two sides have stalled and they're not optimistic that they'll come to an agreement on an extension, according to reports.
Talks between the two sides have stalled and they're not optimistic that they'll come to an agreement on an extension,. It seems the 49ers have offered Aiyuk roughly $26 million per season and he wants closer to $30 million per season and neither side will budge.
Had the 49ers simply offered Aiyuk an extension worth $26 million per season last year, he almost certainly would have signed it and the 49ers wouldn't be in this mess. But the 49ers like to wait as long as possible before handing out extensions. That's just how they do business.
