49ers coach says Aiyuk's reinstatement has no impact on team plans
Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated from the reserve/left squad list, but head coach Kyle Shanahan said it does not affect the San Francisco 49ers' roster decisions.
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated from the team's reserve/left squad list on Monday. The club received a two-week roster exemption after Aiyuk reported for a physical as part of the reinstatement process. The team must decide by the 4 p.m. ET deadline on Tuesday whether to trade the player; he will be paid for the week if he remains on the roster through that deadline, though he could be released before then.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan reiterated that the reinstatement does not influence the current roster. > "It means absolutely nothing to our team... That's all administrative stuff to me," Shanahan said, as reported by Matt Maiocco of NBCSportsBayArea.com.
