Having “played his last snap” for the San Francisco 49ers, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is apparently pushing for a cross-country move.

Aiyuk shouted out the Washington Commanders in his Instagram story on Sunday night, yelling, “Go, Commanders! Go Commanders! Go Commanders! Raise Hail! Take Command!”

He also posted a photo of Washington quarterback Mark Rypien holding the Lombardi Trophy after Washington’s win in Super Bowl XXVI.

More on 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk

Brandon Aiyuk, 28, has been in limbo this offseason after general manager John Lynch said in January that “it’s safe to say that he’s played his last snap with the Niners.” San Francisco has not released him and has been unable to find a trade partner.

Aiyuk, who missed all of last season after tearing his ACL, MCL and meniscus in October of 2024, has been using his social media channels to vent his frustrations with the 49ers.

Earlier this month, he called the team “dumb” and “stupid” for paying him and suggested that they were scared of how well he might play against them if he were on another team.

The wide receiver has a close relationship with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, his former teammate at Arizona State.

Brandon Aiyuk signed a four-year, $120 million contract in August 2024. However, the 49ers voided the remaining guaranteed money on his contract last summer and later placed him on the reserve/left team list when he stopped showing up at the team facility to rehab his right knee.

Aiyuk led San Francisco with 1,342 receiving yards and seven touchdown catches in 2023. Over five NFL seasons, the 2020 first-round pick has amassed 294 catches for 4,305 yards and 25 touchdown catches for the 49ers.
