I think you have to have some kind of injury, and you would still have to pay him. Better to fine and suspend for conduct detrimental over what almost a year and a half could be a lot.

This is my question. From what I've read so far, Goodell has NOT reinstated him yet and there is no hard timeline for him to do so.

The NFL operates at a snails pace on this stuff. I'm still wondering when the 2 Rams starters are getting their due for the stuff they pulled on women. In the case of Aiyuk he hasn't done anything in 2 years and all the other owners are watching. They all have players who might think they could get away with the same behavior so the delays and punishments won't affect TV ratings like the absence of the 2 Rams in a playoff run. If you don't think the size of the LA market doesn't figure into the equation just look at the DeBartolo suspension-no big deal. He doesn't put on a jock strap.

In games perhaps the refs should take more command like baseball umpires do. They'll throw out a player on the smallest disagreement. Their union is strong and we've seen replacement umpires perform. We all know football players need more b***h slapping than those in baseball. Fans don't pay to see the refs perform but sometimes you gotta draw the line. Think Roger Clemens in that playoff game.

Goodell knows he works for the owners and the Aiyuk drama puts proper pressure on him.

Not quite sure, but if they can it would be a short term thing. Teams cannot suspend players without pay indefinitely. I believe the max is 4 weeks.

Spotter didn't want to have to watch the Jets play.

Malik Willis is not better than Mac Jones. Daniel Jones? Have you seen him this season? Mac is equal to Kirk and a lot younger

It's rare to see somebody constantly have such bad takes and not know what he's talking about.

ZERO chance he plays on this team again if this management has some dignity.

It seems like if he gets reinstated the team is on the hook for $20 mil dead cap next year. So go and send him to:

Chargers for Khalil Mack
Saints for Cesar Ruiz
Jaguars for Brian Thomas Jr.

Luckily, Jed York doesn't have any dignity left, so maybe it is possible for him to play here again.

No. No. No. We can recoup signing bonuses. This f**king piece of s**t shouldn't be allowed the time it would take to apologize to his teammates.

Aiyuk is a selfish cancer to any team and I truly hope for the worst possible outcome for him

They will recoup a portion of his signing bonus proration for last season and this season... proportional to the time he missed and clearly defined in the CBA.

They also had salary cap insurance which refunded them a small portion of money after his injury. The remaining portions of his signing bonus allocations will still hit the cap. It is what it is.

That is an interesting suggestion.

Do you think the league should require an IQ test of any player coming into the league that has some bad behavior in their past?

As much as a lot of people on here don't want to admit it, the best scenario for both sides is for BA to apologize to his teammates, his coach, and the GM, and come back and play for this team. Financially, the 49ers will get screwed by releasing him or trading him. Why not see if he can produce? If he addresses the team and the vets on the team agree that they can incorporate him back onto the team, that seems to be the best case scenario. Either that or you're just losing him regardless and taking a cap hit. No team is going to trade for his baggage considering most think SF will just cut him.
