All Matt Harmon insights about Brandon Aiyuk

PositiveSleeperJul 1, 2026
Matt Harmon remains really high versus consensus on Brandon Aiyuk despite uncertainty around his off-field situation and expected move to Washington Commanders. In 2023, Aiyuk was a legitimately elite NFL receiver; 2024 was a wash due to being absent the whole off-season. Harmon recommends throwing him on the end of your bench in a rebuilding dynasty situation as a buy-low candidate to see what happens. At his peak, Aiyuk is a perimeter X receiver with a heavy diet of in-breaking routes, an archetype increasingly valuable in today's game due to efficiency gains from throwing over the middle against two-high safety shells.

Matt Harmon expresses skepticism about Brandon Aiyuk as a Washington acquisition due to significant injury concerns and inactivity. Aiyuk has not played since October 2024, with mixed reports about his current shape and whether he is in touch with teams. Harmon notes uncertainty about when the 49ers will release Aiyuk, calling the situation unique. While Aiyuk may eventually join Washington, Harmon views relying on him as the starting outside receiver alongside Terry McLaurin as an extremely risky bet. Harmon was previously very high on Aiyuk at his peak in 2023, but acknowledges the last time he was seen was not at his peak.
