Brandon Aiyuk just got another contract extension, and we’re not talking about with the San Francisco 49ers.
It’s been an eventful couple of days for the All-Pro wide receiver.
Shortly after putting an end to his months-long saga with his team about a contract extension, he shared some even bigger personal news.
Aiyuk shared a pic of himself and his now-fiancée, Rochelle on Instagram announcing their engagement.

Rochelle has been very active on social media in the offseason, sharing cryptic and not-so-cryptic posts regarding her better half’s discontent with the Niners organization.
Aiyuk skipped the entirety of training in camp and the preseason as he pushed to either get a better contract or be traded.
Aiyuk will now be one of the highest-paid wide receivers — and players — in the league, with an average of $30 million per season.
Moreover, he’s going to get most of his fully guaranteed money upfront in the first months of the contract.
That seems reasonable, based on his production and how he fits in Kyle Shanahan’s offense.
Fortunately for him, that also put him in a position to finally make ends meet and buy his beloved girl a nice ring.
It’s nice to see that he and the Niners were finally able to look eye-to-eye and get this drama out of the way.
