The 49ers and Patriots had the framework of a trade in place if the Pats were able to work out a long-term deal with Aiyuk, but NBC Sports Bay Area reported that the receiver had no shown interest in going to New England.
The Patriots reportedly had a “large” offer on the table, the outlet reported.
Several teams have reportedly been interested in Aiyuk, including the Patriots and the Browns, as it seems more likely that the receiver will be dealt with his contract stalemate persisting
The Browns have a framework for a deal in place with San Francisco as well, and the Steelers have re-engaged with the Niners to work on a deal, Pro Football Talk reported .
The biggest issue — at the moment — preventing anything from getting done remains the extension that Aiyuk is seeking from whichever team is in the hunt to acquire him.
Aiyuk is likely looking to become one of the top-paid players at his position after Vikings star Justin Jefferson signed a four-year, $140 million contract with $110 million guaranteed earlier this offseason.
