you can always read my work on ESPN.com. I'll have a story up in a couple of days about the

Washington Commander's rookie class. And I'm going to get into more of that

and a podcast for Thursday. But today, I'm going to talk about Brandon Iuk because he's back in

the news again, having requested a trade. And I'm going to bring on my ESPN colleague,

Nick Wagner, does a great job covering the 49ers, and he wrote a very

into all the details about what it means and is there a chance? And obviously, I think you guys

know, like, chances are it probably will not happen. So, you know, you never say never until something

is signed. But so what would it take? And what, you know, when would be a realistic scenario if

Washington were actually to get involved.

So personally, you know, I know there was the report that they talked to the 49ers

They're going to talk to a lot of teams, especially when you have a guy that you like and

Adam Peters would like Brandon Ayyuk, you're going to see like, hey, what would it take?
