Now, as far as the trade request goes, I would agree with his agent. There has been no trade request...Obviously there have been some teams though who know that all is not well...To my knowledge, the 49ers have not entertained any of those talks.
This is in line with what 49ers GM John Lynch told the media at the NFL Owner's meeting in the past month. He told the media that he promises nothing is happening there, and that they are working towards a long-term deal with Aiyuk.
The Steelers would need to clear cap space to be able to trade for him in the first place. His fifth-year option amount is a little over $14 million and the Steelers have a little over $12 million in cap space.
