🚨 Adam Schefter DETAILS Brandon Aiyuk's 4-year/$120M extension in San Francisco 🚨 | SC with SVP

Cincinnati Jamar chase you are on the clock CD got his deal early this week with Dallas tonight Brandon auk and that's Saga has come to its merciful conclusion I think Saga is a word we tend to overuse it's a little little dramatic this felt like it checked all the boxes you had angst disagreement a split which felt like it was probably imminent maybe a trade coming frustration on all sides and then voila a deal money has a way of squashing angst doesn't it four years a buck 2078 no trick he's staying with San Francisco auk averaged nearly 18 yard per touch last season which was the most in the league only George Pickins and Amari Cooper were also above 17 his seven games with 100 receiving yards last season the most by a 49ers player since the greatest receiver of all time Jerry Rice had nine in 1995 Adam Scher joins us now to explain how this got done in the end because Adam at times the temperature Rose to such a point where it appeared it appeared that perhaps a divorce was coming here right by way of a trade didn't happen ultimately they work it out how well Scott there was so much that happened between the 49ers wanting to resign Brandon auk in the off season and them actually resigning him during training camp in between we had Brandon auk tweeting at Mike Tomlin we had him posting photos with the Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels he we had Brandon iuk saying to Jaden Daniels on a FaceTime call they don't want me back we had him asking for a trade request we had trade discussions with the Cleveland Browns the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers who had an agreement in principle to trade for auk before the 49ers told them roughly a couple of weeks ago that they had no intention of trading Brandon auk there that they wanted to keep him now if some team had offered a wide receiver in return that might have gotten the 49ers intention but there was no way that they were trading a receiver as good and talented and productive as Brandon auk without getting some type of Frontline wide receiver in return this was always going to be go time for all of these unsettled situations to see if any of them could be resolved on Monday Dallas and CD lamb reached the agreement and now on Thursday Brandon iuk and the 49ers reach their agreement I saw you with Pat McAfee talking about the chase situation with Cincinnati which I I think we always presume I mean you're far closer to it than I I just always presume they're going to work it out like CD's never not going to play for the Cowboys the auk when I didn't know I just always figure ah Chase will get there with the Bengals well you said maybe their head coach spoke a little too soon like where's that headed in your estimation well the issue there what makes that one a little more complicated in the eyes of people around the league is lamb had one year left on his deal auk had one year left on his deal in the case of Jamar Chase he's got two years left on his deal and we heard Mike Brown on the Eva training camp say that it's going to be difficult to get a deal done now the two sides have spoken and they're trying to work it out but as of earlier today I was told those talks were going in slow motion they weren't proceeding very rapidly so then it's up to Jamar Chase about what he wants to do there are still some issues for those two sides to sort out but that one is a little bit more complicated than CD lamb and Brandon auk all right I brought up Chase just to keep the wide receiver conversation going I want to close by bringing it back to the Niners and Trent Williams I I think we could make a compelling case is as important if not more so than anyone else because he's as good at his position as anyone in football and he's shown he'll sit like what's what's the sense of what uh will resolve that one well the ners and Trent Williams have been talking and we've heard Kyle Shanahan say this week he's been talking to Trent Williams and the sense is that they haven't gotten close so far but I think this team was really focused on trying to get this deal done with Brandon auk and it took a lot of energy and attention and now that Brandon auk is done and now that that regular season opener that Monday night came against the Jets is a week from Monday I would think that the 49ers full attention and focus will shift over to Trent Williams who's got no more guaranteed money left on his deal they know that they want him back they know they have to have him back and it'll be up to both sides to try to figure out an arrangement that could get back their Pro Bowl left tackle well we will look forward to visiting with you from there as we will begin Monday night countdown there with the Jets and the Niners we'll see if the big tackle is on hand Adam shefer as always breaking the news from the NFL thank you for your time I appreciate you thank you very much Scott payday continue for the p CES in the NFL this is really the direction the game has gone and why wouldn't it you've got receivers like this auk the fifth different wide receiver to hit nine figures 100 million plus this off season joining Jefferson in Minnesota lamb in Dallas St Brown in Dallas in Detroit I beg your pardon DJ Moore in Chicago and Chase almost certain to be next on the list just wonder when how that deal is going to get done [Applause]
