## Summary

Brandon Aiyuk has hired agent Drew Rosenhaus as he tries to return to the NFL after his relationship with the San Francisco 49ers collapsed. Aiyuk has not played since a knee injury in October 2024, and any move now depends on his formal reinstatement by the league.

The 49ers voided about $27 million in guarantees after Aiyuk missed mandatory rehabilitation, then placed him on reserve lists when he stopped reporting. He sought a trade or release and publicly expressed interest in joining Washington, but the Commanders signed Stefon Diggs and San Francisco has ruled out a reunion. Aiyuk recorded 1,342 receiving yards in 2023; Rosenhaus has represented several high-profile players amid career disputes.
