Wide receiver Devonta Smith and the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a three-year, 75 million dollar contract with $51 million guaranteed on Monday. Smith’s base salary was set to jump from $1,055,000 to $15,591,000 on his original contract, and we await the details of the new contract structure.
The question becomes: What does this mean for Brandon Aiyuk?
Voluntary workouts for the 49ers begin today following a report of Aiyuk requesting a trade, which led to his agent refuting the report on Sunday. The 49ers exercised Aiyuk’s fifth-year option for 2024, which will pay him $14,124,000 fully guaranteed, but it is believed that Aiyuk will not play on the fifth year and is looking for a long-term extension.
