49ers void more than $26 million from Brandon Aiyuk’s contract, AP source says
November 21, 2025
San Francisco 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk has had the guaranteed money in his contract for next season voided. The team made the move after Aiyuk failed to participate in meetings and other team activities. A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press the team voided more than $26 million guaranteed under the four-year, $120 million extension he signed last year. The Athletic first reported the development. Aiyuk has been out all season recovering from knee surgery and remains on the physically unable to perform list. This move allows the 49ers to cut Aiyuk next year with reduced financial impact.
