- Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated by the NFL and removed from the reserve/left squad list; the 49ers have a two-week exemption to add him to the 53-man roster.
- San Francisco calls the move "administrative" and says it has no plans to play him—he could be traded or released before the exemption ends on Nov. 23.
- Aiyuk, who says he's healthy after an Oct. 2024 knee injury, hired agent Drew Rosenhaus and is in a money dispute with the 49ers over about $13M (the team previously voided a $27M guarantee).
