NFL has not yet reinstated Brandon Aiyuk from reserve/left squad list

It's supposed to be a simple, administrative matter.

The NFL has not yet reinstated 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk from the reserve/left squad list, despite him filing the necessary paperwork on Wednesday. The delay has raised questions about whether the NFL and the 49ers are collaborating to give the team more time to recover up to $13 million. In the past, reinstating a player from the reserve/retired list was a straightforward process, but Aiyuk's situation has proven otherwise.

It remains unclear if the 49ers will meet with Aiyuk and his new agent, Drew Rosenhaus, before the league office provides a decision on his reinstatement.
