Jay Glazer reported that the 49ers were in trade talks with the Steelers for Brandon Aiyuk just hours before he agreed to a significant four-year, $120 million contract.
Kyle Shanahan intervened during trade discussions by rushing to the front office as he learned of ongoing negotiations with the Steelers for Aiyuk's potential trade.
After discussions with Shanahan and GM John Lynch, Aiyuk was given an ultimatum: accept the contract with the 49ers or be traded.
With Aiyuk now committed to a four-year deal, the 49ers are relieved as he will participate in their season opener against the Jets.
