Brandon Aiyuk made his stance clear in an Instagram story, stating, "I will not be reinstating with them or ever doing any kind of business with them. I'm locked in and focused on my opportunity to return to this season!" The 49ers receiver also accused the team of lying to the media and fan base regarding the decision to void his guarantees and his intent to return.
Aiyuk's path to free agency would require filing a petition for reinstatement from the reserve/left squad list and showing up for training camp, which would likely lead to his release. However, by refusing to take this step, Aiyuk remains in limbo with the 49ers having no incentive to release him from the list. freshyourfeel.org
