No update from GM 49ers GM John Lynch said Thursday that he has no update on Aiyuk but remains in contract with the wide receiver, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Impact It's the offseason drama with no end, although at some point it might become slightly less complicated due to other teams losing interest in a trade (or at least giving San Francisco a deadline). The Steelers were thought to be the last man standing in that regard a week ago, with Cleveland and New England having failed to convince Aiyuk to sign a long-term deal post-trade. The 49ers still hope to sign him, or at least get him back on the field under the fifth-year option, and it would seem a trade becomes less and less likely with each passing day.
