It sounds like he's beginning to get upset with the Commanders for not being more aggressive in trying to acquire him from the 49ers.

He needs to keep the Commanders' name out of his mouth....especially this late in the process.

Nothing good comes from that. Hell they might even stay away from him, to avoid any tampering investigations/attention.

Also telling them to "take Command" doesn't really help their negotiation leverage, IF they were even thinking of trading for him....

Oh well, what ever happens, happens...

Edit- but hey, he's in Virginia at this moment right? Maybe something is close to happening.

Wtf 🤣
I would absolutely lose it if after we release his ass(hopefully right before week 1 if he ever even shows up) Washington never signs him and/or NFL hits them with tampering.
You guys are beating a dead horse. He's gone. Let the fake news stir the pot. Nothing else going on.

Dont project your own limitations onto others.

This should be tampering IMO, we got hit for way less with Lance Briggs but the NFL won't do anything about it
There's no reason to cut him until you see him come through the doors at training camp.

Is it possible to suspend him from training camp? That way he can't get released and he can't show up either. That would be the best case scenario.

No reason to help him get his way and get to Washington and have a full TC with them.

This isn't tampering at all. And as far the Briggs situation goes, the team was talking with Briggs' agent Drew Rosenhaus during the season without the Bears permission. That's a direct violation of the tampering policy. The documented communications were shared at the hearing.

Public/Private Statements. Any public or private statement of interest, qualified or unqualified, in another club's player to that player's agent or representative, or to a member of the news media, is a violation of this AntiTampering Policy. (Example of a prohibited comment: "He's an excellent player, and we'd very much like to have him if he were available, but another club holds his rights.") All clubs should be aware that improper disclosure of confidential trade discussions with another club may be a violation of this section on prohibited public statements.
Imagine not wanting the 49ers to be petty at this point. I bet the entire 49ers locker room backs the front office at this point.

They definitely will with how sensitive he appears to be. I see a disaster waiting to happen, if he's underperforming he might start pointing fingers knowing him. If I was a betting man I'd put some money on McLaurin having a 100 yard game. The 9ers are going to shut him out and Green will be all up in his sh*t. Knowing how botchy our safteys are I understand where Aiyuks confidence is coming from

When he talks about the "belt" he's not talking about one game vs the 9ers or that he's going to put a whoopin' on the 9er defense... he knows better than that... easy to take a one WR out, if a defense wants to..

It's more about the whole season.... the belt is basically, "I'm gonna ball out this season and you can't stop it." Now if everything goes right for him, it is very much possible... but this is football, anything can happen.

I can see that but I wouldn't put it past him if he means the ladder, in the context he's speaking it sounds like he's trying to punish us. Idk how him having a good season is punishing no one's going to miss him… I guess if he suddenly becomes Justin Jefferson you'd have some fans crying

Again I hope folks understand his issue isn't with his defense/teammates... or the fans (well not counting the POSs who celebrated his injury on his socials)

His issue is with the front office..... so yeah in his mind, if he balls out this season....all the media pushed narrative about him not knowing what he was doing...will be put into questuon....He'll get his say before the season starts.. be it podcast, or ESPN, Fox, Prime, NFL feature interview.

Not exactly sure what broke the camels back, losing the Super Bowl being wide open, Kyle, or front office. I also remember him dropping multiple passes after his hold out missing camp, one of them was on a crucial 3rd down and the entire stadium started booing him I think he does have some resentment towards us fans even outside of social media

It would be a clear problem if not for the fact that 49ers had several players that Drew managed. That was a joke tampering charge and I can guarantee if the NFL cared enough to dig into it with Washington they would find stuff.

I'm sure Washington is being careful to use Jayden as the middle man for all conversations but I'm confident the NFL COULD find something if they looked hard enough but they don't hate Washington like us.

Almost like he controlled all the negatives himself...

This is why I have no sympathy towards the guy as a player. I don't wish him ill as a person but you will never catch me rooting for him again and he was one of my favorite players and a guy I desperately wanted us to extend and not trade.

This guy has controlled every bit of negative fallout himself.

I could understand if he was furious for the SB going down the way it did where really if he was featured we likely win that game. I can see him being upset with Kyle for not force feeding him like some other teams do to their WR1.

That would totally make sense IF he didn't sign the extension with us. You want to play for Washington? Play out your contract and sign with them or get them to trade for you. You hate the 49ers/Kyle bad enough for what happened then don't sign the massive extension and let them trade you to the team you wanted.

Are we forgetting the guy was on social media just a few weeks ago saying the 49ers were shtoopid for basically gifting him $50 million for nothing? Is he going to give that money back?

$50 million for 25 catches on 47 targets(just above 50% catch rate easily the worst of his career) 374 yards and 0 TDs.

Made the whole negotiation a "look at me" and then sat on the contract that he ended up signing for weeks if not months. Then came back and put up those numbers. And he's shocked fans weren't thrilled for him as he's dropping key passes after calling himself a Lambo? Dude was playing like a Ford Pinto, let alone a Toyota Carrolla.

All he had to do was check in during rehab. Couldn't be bothered to do that. Once again it doesn't mean 49ers aren't without fault here but I'm certainly not going to have any poor Brandon thoughts as he's stealing from this team and acting like a child on social media.

How is this guy going to act when it comes time to negotiate with the Commanders for a new deal? He's out there acting like one of their cheerleaders and we've seen how pissy this kid gets during contract talks.

If Washington wanted him so bad, they would have made a trade for him and they would take on his contract like they did Deebo last year. I don't think B.A realizes this LOL.

I bet we would have accepted a 7th rounder for B.A, and Washington still didn't make the trade.
