The San Francisco 49ers were in a difficult spot with Brandon Aiyuk this offseason as the star wide receiver was looking for a new contract and requested a trade.
Ultimately the two sides ended up negotiating a new deal that was fair for both sides but it seems like the 49ers did look around for other options.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the 49ers were among three teams that attempted to trade for Vikings superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson prior to the 2024 NFL Draft when Jefferson was seeking a lucrative contract extension.
“Amid the offseason uncertainty surrounding Brandon Aiyuk, the 49ers checked in on Justin Jefferson’s availability before this year’s (National Football League) draft, but the Vikings had zero interest in trading the star wide receiver and immediately rebuffed San Francisco’s inquiries, league sources told ESPN,” Schefter said. “The 49ers were not the only team to check in on Jefferson. The (New York Jets) and (Indianapolis Colts) also had some level of interest, but the Vikings never considered moving the three-time Pro Bowler and talks never went anywhere, according to sources.”
Could you imagine if the 49ers acquired Jefferson and paired him in an offense with Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel and George Kittle?
