Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated from the 49ers’ reserve/left roster on Monday, but head coach Kyle Shanahan’s tone hasn’t changed about the wide receiver.
Shanahan said last week that he I don’t care about Aiyuk’s attempt to be reinstated and resume his playing career. The team has always said Aiyuk played his last game with the team and Shanahan reiterated Monday that he was only thinking about the current roster.
“It means absolutely nothing to our team. . . . To me, it’s all administrative matters,” Shanahan said, via Matt Maiocco of NBCSportsBayArea.com.
The 49ers were granted a two-week waiver after Aiyuk reported for a physical as part of the reinstatement process. The 49ers have until the 4 p.m. ET deadline Tuesday to trade him and Aiyuk will be paid for the week if he remains on the roster until Tuesday, but he could be released before then.
