On WR Brandon Aiyuk: 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said that WR Trent Sherfield’s ascent in camp, combined with Aiyuk’s recent hamstring issue that cost him 10 day.
Fantasy Impact:
The tweet went on to say those were all driving factors in Aiyuk's usage, or lack thereof, in Week 1. While Deebo Samuel went off for 9-189-1, Sherfield caught two balls for 23 yards and a score. It's hard to imagine Aiyuk doesn't earn his way back onto the field sooner than later. This could be the wake-up call to motivate him.
