San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk was not seen at the start of practice on Wednesday, according to ESPN NFL reporter Nick Wagoner, despite the team's expression that they hoped he would return. (Nick Wagoner on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Head coach Kyle Shanahan expressed the sentiment that he was hopeful Aiyuk would return to practice Wednesday, but it seems as though patience is running thin in San Francisco. Aiyuk is threatening to miss game time at this point, and Shanahan stated that the team is preparing for the possibility of playing Week 1 without him and Trent Williams. General Manager John Lynch also expressed frustration for the parties' communication. This situation may continue to get messier before it gets better, but a future with Aiyuk in S.F. seems more and more unlikely.
