WR Brandon Aiyuk, SF (1 Viewer)

For some reason it looks like he deleted his tweet but he was re-tweeting this
I guess this trends with the speculation from some here that Aiyuk’s delayed recovery is due to player choice and he doesn’t want to play (for the Niners).
Maybe that report from Jennifer Chan I linked was bogus? I don’t follow her, don’t know her, no idea if she is credible.
I do follow Maiocco and only saw that because he tweeted it out.
And then he deleted his tweet and a few minutes later tweeted out Kyle is saying that Aiyuk might be back in week 10.

By the time I just tried to view this, it was also apparently deleted. No big deal, I have a sense of what it was.
Wow, did not know that. Seems like some backtracking/bad initial post.
Gist of it was this Chan lady said he had deleted all 49'er stuff from his social and had not been seen in the last two weeks.
Yeah, Niners Twitter and Reddit are now saying it’s a fake story. That said, I haven’t seen an apology from NBC Sports or Jennifer Lee Chan, and the Aiyuk article does say that he hasn’t been at practice. So, there could be some truth to what she was implying with her original Tweet. It would be consistent with Aiyuk’s past behavior.

It doesn't appear that Brandon Aiyuk is nearing a return to the field for the San Francisco 49ers.

Brandon Aiyuk has been consistently at the #49ers facility — even helping coach up the WRs.
Despite a report earlier this week suggesting otherwise, John Lynch confirmed on @KNBR that Aiyuk was working out at the facility this morning.
“He’s getting closer. He is getting closer and I can see that each week. He’s better today than he was last week at this time. That’s all positive. That’s the update.”

That’s a relief! He’s a bit of a diva though, so that’s why the earlier (false) report was believable.

What are we saying he slots into upon return? Lowend WR2 with maybe lowend WR1 spike weeks? I have had him since draft, but kinda see the WR room as wide open still. Pearsal, Jennings injuries may have been a bit of a smoke and mirrors, but a healthy Aiyuk has got to be better than either if even they do get healthy.
He should return as the #1 target or at least 2nd behind Kittle.

He hasn’t really played for a year and a half. He’s going to be rusty and out of sync with whatever QB is playing. Definitely think a healthy Pearsall and Kittle will be higher priority targets.
I think hed be barely playable.
I am sitting him on in a few leagues, though would never have messed with him if I'd known he be out this long.
My fairly realistic best case scenario is he returns in week 10-11, spends next few weeks getting up to speed but hopefully not in my fantasy lineups, and after the week 14 bye MIGHT be able to be a big assist as a top 2-3 target earner for the fantasy playoffs.
