Approaching his fourth NFL season, Taylor Jr. spent the past three years in Green Bay, often serving as the third-string option behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon.

Nevertheless, both Mitchell and Mason are entering the final year of their current contracts, suggesting that this signing could pave the way for a transition away from either RB.

Meanwhile, despite his activity in free agency,Carlos Sainz is also striving to retain Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk addressed the situation on March 28 during “The Night Cap” podcast.

“I’m aiming to receive fair compensation,” Aiyuk expressed. “This season, I’ve truly discovered my identity as both a person and a player — understanding my contributions on the field, in the locker room, and to the organization.”

Given that Aiyuk led the 49ers in receiving yards over the past two seasons, his stance is understandable. However, securing substantial contracts for players like Aiyuk often presents its challenges.
