49ers expected to release Brandon Aiyuk during training camp

Adam Schefter reported that the San Francisco 49ers might release wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk during their upcoming training camp. Aiyuk's potential release is expected around the end of July, coinciding with the team's return for training camp on July 18 for rookies and July 25 for veterans. Aiyuk has shown interest in joining the Washington Commanders, complicating negotiations, as they may prefer to wait before making any moves due to the possibility of him becoming available without cost. The 49ers reportedly are under no rush to part with Aiyuk, who remains under contract.
