Kyle Shanahan's brutal comments all but cement Brandon Aiyuk's 49ers future

It seems all but certain that the San Francisco 49ers and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk are headed for a split after he was placed on the reserve/left team list, which means he cannot return for the regular season.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan's words after Sunday's game only cemented that fate further.
