San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch discussed Brandon Aiyuk\'s contract situation while meeting with the media on Monday.
\"I\'ve communicated on many occasions: our wish is that he\'s here and part of the Niners for the rest of his career,\" Lynch said. \"We\'re working through that ... I can say we\'re having good talks, and I\'m just going to leave it at that.\"
Aiyuk is coming off a 75-catch, 1,342-yard, 7-touchdown season that landed him a second-team All-Pro nod. He is scheduled to play the 2024 season on the fifth-year option of his rookie deal. That contract is slated to come with a $14.124 million salary cap hit.
Lynch acknowledged that he has received calls from other teams interested in Aiyuk but again made it clear there is no desire to trade him.
\"We\'re really focused on BA being part of us,\" Lynch said.
