Some say that the San Francisco 49ers have an embarrassment of riches.
Not only do they have a budget quarterback in Brock Purdy, who has turned out better than expected, but they have some of the pass-catchers and offensive talents in the league.
Christian McCaffrey has proven to be a great pickup for them, and their primary pass-catchers, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle, and Deebo Samuel, have also all panned out well for this team.
While this team has been cohesive enough to bring themselves to the Super Bowl last year, there is still an elephant in the room.
Aiyuk has yet to be signed to a contract extension, which has been the talk of the town over the past several weeks.
Aiyuk has officially requested a trade from the team, leaving the state of their wide receiver room in danger.
Kittle recently spoke about this in a recent segment of The Insiders on NFL Network, indicating his thoughts on his teammate’s eventual deal.
“So, yes, getting Brandon Aiyuk the money that he deserves– I hope nothing but the best for him.,” Kittle said.
Whether it’s with the 49ers or another team, Kittle is in favor of Aiyuk getting paid.
He has proven to be one of the best receivers in the league to this point, and with Justin Jefferson already getting a massive extension, Aiyuk is looking for a big deal of his own.
It will be interesting to see how this situation plays out, and what the 49ers will end up doing with Aiyuk.
