49ers superstar listed as option to be traded to Commanders, per insider

The San Francisco 49ers will have a tough decision to make in the not-so-distant future.

San Francisco continuously has been mentioned in trade rumors recently with the future of star receiver Brandon Aiyuk still up in the air. It has seemed like he was going to end up with either the 49ers or Pittsburgh Steelers, but CBS Sports' Cody Benjamin also listed the Washington Commanders as an option.

"An incessant subject of trade rumors this offseason, Aiyuk is reportedly still in long-term contract talks with the San Francisco 49ers, attending but not partaking in training camp while (half-heartedly?) pushing for a trade to a team that'll meet his demands for top-end money," Benjamin said. "In the end, he's just as likely to stay put as he is to be dealt, with the Pittsburgh Steelers one of the last remaining teams to be legitimately linked to the All-Pro.

"San Francisco has a tendency to let holdouts turn ugly before ultimately resolving them (see: Deebo Samuel), so the bet right now is that Aiyuk suits up for the reigning NFC champions again. Potential fits: (Los Angeles Chargers), (Washington Commanders), Steelers."

Washington was linked to Aiyuk early on when trade rumors started popping up. It seems like the most likely outcome for Aiyuk will be to either play for San Francisco or Pittsburgh, but don't completely rule out Washington yet.

The only thing that seems like a guarantee is that the saga will be coming to an end very soon.
