Aiyuk also released a three-minute video on YouTube, launching a scathing attack on team management. He vowed never to return to the 49ers facility unless as an opponent.
In the video, Aiyuk criticized the connection between his former agent and the team's general manager. “The reason why the agent being fired is such an important detail ...
is because that agent is also the agent of the general manager for that one team,” he said.
Aiyuk claimed Williams texted his wife after being fired.
“That agent really started this whole s— cause I fired his ass, but he wanted to text my wife like he’s smart,” he said.
He warned, “(Dude) don’t ever text my wife.”

The receiver also described an uninvited house visit by GM John Lynch.
Aiyuk said he saw Lynch on his front-door camera and told his wife to avoid the house. “He was not invited,” Aiyuk said, calling the visit “creepy.”
Aiyuk linked his demands to financial sacrifice. An on-screen caption read: “IDGAF HOW MANY MILLIONS I LOSE YOU GOTTA RESPECT ME FIRST!”
Financial records show the 49ers paid $48.1 million of a four-year, $120 million contract extension before voiding $27 million in guaranteed funds for 2026 due to missed activities.
Aiyuk risks losing the remaining $71.9 million.
