Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, 28, has 294 receptions for 4,305 yards and 25 touchdowns since being drafted in the first round in 2020, and he signed a four-year, $120 million extension last year, though there is now no guaranteed money remaining.

The 49ers are weighing trade interest, but they could also cut him or place him on the reserve/left squad list, especially with the June 1 deadline passed.

If released, Aiyuk could save roughly $20 million in cap space, though the remaining guarantees would be paid over two seasons.

A warrant has been issued for Aiyuk in Santa Clara County on a misdemeanor charge of exhibition of speed tied to a December video showing him driving over 100 mph near Levi’s Stadium.

The warrant stems from a December video Aiyuk posted that appeared to show him speeding in front of Levi’s Stadium, a development first reported by The California Post and later described by other outlets.

The Santa Clara County DA’s Office issued the arrest warrant after the Santa Clara Police Department referred the case earlier in the year, with a traffic charge filed in January.

If convicted on the misdemeanor, he could face NFL scrutiny under the league’s Personal Conduct Policy, which can lead to a suspension for actions that bring the league into disrepute regardless of criminal outcomes.

Aiyuk has been on the reserve/left squad list due to a knee injury since October 2024 and has not participated in team meetings, contributing to ongoing questions about his status with the 49ers.

San Francisco has reportedly voided $27 million in guaranteed money from his contract for missing meetings and activities, and team officials have suggested he may have played his last game for the 49ers.

The 49ers have pursued other receivers and drafted WRs, and general manager John Lynch has indicated the team would consider trading Aiyuk if an opportunity presented itself.

There is ambiguity about whether Aiyuk will surrender or resolve the warrant, as he has not been with the team since late last year.

Aiyuk issued an apology after the video, stating his future car content would avoid speeding and that he prayed with his son at the time.
