The San Francisco 49ers placed receiver Brandon Aiyuk on the reserve/left squad list, making him ineligible to return from a knee injury this season.
The move comes after the Niners had previously voided $27 million guaranteed in his contract for next season for failing to participate in meetings and other team activities. It likely marks the end of his tenure in San Francisco.
Aiyuk signed a four-year, $120 million extension last year that included guaranteed money for 2026. The 49ers are expected to cut ties with him before next season without having to pay him any more money.
