San Francisco 49ers star WR Brandon Aiyuk is not happy with the 49ers.
In a TikTok video posted by Aiyuk, he was talking to Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels and said regarding the 49ers “They said they don’t want me back… I swear”.
Many teams need a playmaking WR and Aiyuk has established himself as a top wideout.
He will certainly have a market if the 49ers do end up trading him.
Below, we take a look at four teams that should target acquiring Brandon Aiyuk before the season begins.
Which NFL Teams Are The Most Logical Landing Spot For WR Brandon Aiyuk?
Brandon Aiyuk is one of the best route runners in the league.
Playing for the 49ers, Aiyuk has established himself as a top-flight wideout in the league.
Here are four teams that should target Brandon Aiyuk before the season begins.
Washington Commanders
Brandon Aiyuk posted the video while speaking to Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels.
Daniels and Aiyuk are very good friends and Aiyuk would jump at the idea of playing with Daniels.
The Commanders have some weapons at WR in Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson.
They also added RB Austin Ekeler, who is an excellent pass-catching RB.
Adding Aiyuk to this offense will make Daniels’ job as a rookie much easier.
Aiyuk would become the team’s number-one WR and is an excellent route runner.
Adding Brandon Aiyuk to the Commanders would boost their offense significantly and Daniels would have tremendous weapons at his disposal.
Los Angeles Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers desperately need a WR to help star QB Justin Herbert.
LA lost WRs Mike Williams and Keenan Allen in the offseason.
Their WR room is very thin.
The starting WRs are Joshua Palmer, Quentin Johnston, and Ladd McConkey.
If any team could use a star WR to have for a star QB, it is the Chargers.
Aiyuk would greatly help the offense and the Chargers to compete in a tough AFC West.
Jim Harbaugh wants immediate success and adding Aiyuk will help that out.
Pairing Brandon Aiyuk with Justin Herbert is an excellent combination that will give the Chargers a chance to compete in the AFC West and AFC.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Outside of George Pickens, the Steelers WR group is lackluster.
They do not have anybody proven to be a reliable number two target.
Roman Wilson is a rookie and he might be best suited to play in the slot, although Pickens has seen a lot of work in the slot this offseason.
Aiyuk would be a tremendous boost to a very thin WR group in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers have not won a playoff game since 2016 and they have been feeling the heat from fans.
Adding Aiyuk would boost their chances of winning a playoff game.
In a revamped offense that has seen a ton of changes this offseason, adding a top-flight WR to pair with Pickens would greatly benefit the Steelers.
New England Patriots
No team has arguably a weaker WR group than the New England Patriots.
The Pats do not have any proven WR and on paper, this looks like the worst WR group in the NFL.
Drake Maye will eventually be the starter if he isn’t in week 1.
The Pats need to get him some help if he has any chance of being a successful QB.
Adding Aiyuk would finally give the Patriots a true number-one WR, something they have been lacking for a few years.
New England desperately needs to try and acquire star WR Brandon Aiyuk.
