Commanders' Jayden Daniels called out as 'momma's boy' by Brandon Aiyuk, so why would Washington even want 49ers WR?
- On Sunday, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels and San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk unfollowed each other on Instagram following a heated public exchange between the former college teammates.
- Tensions escalated after a 49ers fan heckled Aiyuk while Daniels laughed during a soccer game, prompting Aiyuk to tell Daniels in an Instagram story: "You gonna have to stop running behind your momma, and I might believe what you talkin' bout."
- Currently on the 49ers' Reserved/Left Squad list, Aiyuk is attempting to force his release to sign with the Commanders, where he played college football under Daniels at Arizona State.
- ESPN analyst Jeremy Fowler warned that Aiyuk's behavior is "nuking his job prospects at this point," suggesting the receiver may have burned his final bridge with potential NFL teams.
- The Commanders, previously considered a viable landing spot, may now lose interest in signing Aiyuk, as his public alienation of Daniels threatens his only clear path to a new roster.
