49ers, Brandon Aiyuk reach 4-year, $120M extension #49ers #fttb #nflfootball #nfl
The dramatic rollercoaster ride that has been the high-stakes contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk ended where it all began when this started more than six months ago -- with the Niners and Aiyuk sticking together for the long haul.
