San Francisco 49ers
Brandon Aiyuk is heading into the final year of his contract with the San Francisco 49ers. And it sounds like while he wants to remain with the Niners for the foreseeable future, but he also wants to make sure he’s paid what he feels like he deserves for the value he brings to the team.
During a recent appearance on The Nightcap podcast with former NFL players Shannon Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, Brandon Aiyuk had a pretty clear message for the Niners about how he sees the current contract negotiations.
“I’m trying to get what I deserve,” Aiyuk said according to . “I feel like this season, this season playing football, I figured out who I was as a person and a player — what I bring to the table, what I bring to the locker room, what I bring to the organization. The value I hold when I walk in that building. People gonna follow me because I’ve done it the right way since I’ve been in that building. From the first day I walked in there to when I was in there earlier this morning. If they don’t see the worth in that, that’s all it is. It ain’t nothing else besides that.
“I can’t get into it. We got professionals working on both sides, so hopefully we can come to a professional agreement to continue playing professional football.”
Aiyuk has been one of the team’s top players. We’ll have to see if the two sides can come to a deal.
