Brandon Aiyuk showed up at the 49ers' Santa Clara offices Friday. The wide receiver, who has applied for reinstatement, arrived with new agent Drew Rosenhaus 13 minutes before their 3 p.m. meeting. After about an hour, they left without a resolution.
“We met with the bosses, man. Big bosses.”
Money is the sticking point. The NFL told Aiyuk he needs to repay the 49ers about $13 million in bonuses, an AP source said. The Ventura County Star reports his reinstatement depends on settling that, and calls a release after reinstatement the likeliest outcome.
