George Kittle wishes 'luck' to whoever trades for Brandon Aiyuk as 49ers look to move on from receiver

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch has noted in the past that it’s "safe to say" Brandon Aiyuk's time with the team is over, and George Kittle is apparently happy about that.

The rift between Aiyuk and the 49ers has gone on for almost a full year now after the team voided the remaining guaranteed money he was owed on his extension. The 49ers did so after Aiyuk didn’t participate in rehab sessions for a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus he suffered in his right knee during the 2024 season, which he still has not returned from.
