Brandon Aiyuk’s unresolved status remained one of the lingering questions as the San Francisco 49ers opened training camp, with the team offering no update and the next move seemingly left to the wide receiver.

Aiyuk remains in limbo on the reserve/left squad list, where he has been since the end of 2025.

After missing all of last season amid a lengthy standoff with the Niners, the All-Pro wide receiver would likely need to apply to the NFL for reinstatement to begin a potential return in 2026.

He could also move the process forward by reporting to training camp or informing the 49ers that he plans to report.
