Update (Monday, 5:05 PM ET): The NFL reinstated Aiyuk from the reserve/left squad list and granted the 49ers a two-week roster exemption, giving the team until Nov. 23 to make a roster move, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Update (Friday, 7:15 PM ET): Aiyuk met with the 49ers’ “big bosses” Friday, but nothing was announced afterward. Rosenhaus said it is “to be continued” and offered no further statement, and both declined further comment, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. His reinstatement was not on Friday’s NFL transaction report.
49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk has turned in paperwork to be reinstated, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, citing Aiyuk's agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Aiyuk, who is on San Francisco's Reserve/Left Squad list, will report to the 49ers' training facility Friday afternoon, per Rosenhaus. Schefter said that once Aiyuk officially reports, the 49ers' options are to keep him under his current contract, release him or potentially find a trade partner before Tuesday's deadline. Ben Standig of The Athletic noted that reporting Friday could expedite his release.
