The Washington Commanders were dealt a bit of bad news on Monday when a San Francisco 49ers announcer dropped a less than ideal update on a wide receiver Washington likely has interest in.

49ers trade rumor amounts to bad news for Commanders filling key need originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Washington Commanders have made some wide receiver additions in free agency lately, but it's safe to say more is needed.

While Dyami Brown and Van Jefferson are nice depth pieces, neither one is going to fill the No. 2 wide receiver void Washington has and it remains to be seen if the Commanders will even consider re-signing Deebo Samuel. It once seemed like a foregone conclusion that San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk would be cut and eventually land in Washington.

However, a new rumor has cast doubt on both of those notions. 49ers radio play-by-play man, Greg Haberman, is hearing there might be multiple teams interested in trading for Aiyuk , which is bad news because that means he's not a lock to get cut, nor is he a lock to land in Washington. “If they got a seventh-round pick because they waited three months, that would be considered maximizing value.

From what I’m hearing, I do think a couple of teams will say, ‘Yeah, I can put him with my quarterback, in my system, and give him a fresh start. What’s a seventh-round pick? ’ Haberman revealed.
