The San Francisco 49ers are favorites to win the Super Bowl even after losing the last one against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. The key factor is a sensational offense led by Brandon Aiyuk, Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel.

According to the team’s front office, Brock Purdy is the franchise quarterback of the future and his rookie contract allows John Lynch to surround him with tremendous playmakers.

However, in one of the biggest stories in the NFL, the San Francisco 49ers might suffer a big hit as they don’t want to give Aiyuk a historic contract extension. That could derail all championship hopes.

“You know, it’s kind of weird for sure. I remember last year when we played the Giants and Brandon was out injured. I went to him and I was like: ‘Bro, I never knew how weird it was for you not to not be on the field. He was out there by himself and was just like: ‘I kind of see what you feel, it kind of felt awkward.’ Being out there with someone for four years straight.”
