NFL star Brandon Aiyuk appears to go after Commanders’ Jayden Daniels in latest social media rant

Aiyuk posted a video to his social media on Saturday, taking aim at Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels. He seemingly referred to Daniels as “5” – the star’s jersey number.

“‘5’ gonna text me talking about some, ‘You’re on my team now. You follow my rules.’ Boy, I’m a grown a– man, boy,” Aiyuk said. “You gonna have to start running behind your momma and I might believe what you talking about. But until then, (No).”
He tagged Daniels specifically in a separate post, which read, “Tf always so funny lil n—-. Turn your savage up.”
In a third post, Aiyuk was seemingly interested in joining Daniels on the Commanders again.
“Let’s run it 5! Let’s see! Need you available all szn and I’ll do the same,” the post read.
The 49ers have been looking for a trade partner for Aiyuk, who signed a four-year, $120 million extension with the 49ers in August 2024. But it probably isn’t helping that general manager John Lynch not only said Aiyuk is done, but these public displays of displeasure from Aiyuk don’t paint him in the best light despite his talent.
Aiyuk has invoked the Commanders numerous times, seemingly trying to re-join his Arizona State teammate in Daniels.

Aiyuk began speaking out about his frustration with San Francisco earlier this month, including videos where he called the 49ers “dumb” and “stupid” for giving him his extension. He also claims the team is scared to release him because of how he might perform elsewhere in the league.
The rift between Aiyuk and the 49ers has gone on for almost a full year now after the team voided the remaining guaranteed money he was owed on his extension. The 49ers did so after Aiyuk didn’t participate in rehab sessions for a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus he suffered in his right knee during the 2024 season.
Then, the 49ers placed Aiyuk on the reserve/left team list in December after he stopped showing up to the team facility.
Before getting injured in 2024, Aiyuk tallied 24 catches for 374 yards during that season. He broke out with 1,342 yards on 75 receptions and seven touchdowns during the 2023 season for the 49ers, helping them reach the Super Bowl.
