According to grant Cohn the niners and aiyuk should make up and allow him to play: niners are desperate for wr help.

why is anyone assuming Aiyuk can still play? Especially since it's been 2 years since he stepped onto the field. I think he's cooked

I don't think the niners will keep him. I think they will trade him to an afc team
Aiyuk will ask for reinstatement and at that time the Niners will have to release him. Then some team who needs a WR will have him come in and show what he has and see where his head is. However, someone will need a WR and will take a gamble on him for minimium salary. He'll play and then we'll see. I believe he thinks he'll come in and make a huge difference and say see, look at me. Then in the off season, he thinks teams will rush to sign him. This is all about him and it will be. Last time I comment on him, he's not worth the time or typing effort IMO.

More likely we just release him.

The question becomes - who and how are the reinstatements done? Does it go to goodell? If so, what does he investigate to see if he approves?

if you look at everything he did, why would Goodell approve it? No other company would allow you to work there after his antics.

That is incorrect. There's a lot to it then just asking to be reinstated.

If it does happen, the 49ers get two weeks to find a trade or release him

You would think Goodell would force Aiyuk to take care of his warrant first, but Good hates the 49ers and probably would just approve it

Or Parking Lot
Let's say he requests reinstatement, is granted it by the NFL and the only thing left to do is release him.

You do not do it that way. You make him report to the building, let him in and make him sit through a what-for scolding. His option would be to walk out on them(insubordination) or sit through it until the meeting ends with his release. He wouldn't be able to handle it. The rest of the league needs to know how to treat the spoiled.

Management has every right to the attitude 'I'm gonna get this out'. Put the union rep in the room with him. Put two of them in, one flown in from NY.

Your correct that there is a lot more to it LINK1 LINK
1. File a Rinstatement Letter to the NFL player personnel depart and to Goodell with a copy sent to the 49ers requesting to be removed from the reserve/left squad.
2. Once the reinstatement request is filed, the 49ers have to decide to try and trade him or release him.
3. Aiyuk will have to pass a physical exam to show that he is healthy enough to return to the field.
4. IF the request is filed after the November 10th deadline, the 49ers can turn it down and the league does not allow palyer reinstatements past week 13.
IF he reports the Niners will cut him because if he somehow shows up and injuries himself, they are responsible for his 26 million dollar salary them.

In the end, I simplified it. No team is going to trade for Aiyuk when the Niners will release him after and IF he files. IF any team is interested, they can bring him in and access where he is physically and mentally. Why surrender a draft pick for that? No, if he is reinstated, the Niners will end up releasing him. Then someone will bring him in and see where he is and make a decision on him. That is where he is going IMO, you opinion may differ

They should allow cameras in there so we can watch it
