Wide receiver Robert Woods announced his retirement from professional football on Tuesday on his Instagram, according to Omar Ruiz of the NFL Network. Woods was with the Pittsburgh Steelers in training camp last summer but requested his release before the start of the regular season, and he never latched on with another team. The 33-year-old wraps up a successful 12-year NFL career, having caught 683 of his 1,093 targets for 8,233 yards and 38 touchdowns in 171 regular-season games played. Woods was originally a second-round pick in 2013 out of USC by the Buffalo Bills, and he played the first four years of his career with the Bills. He won a Super Bowl ring with the Los Angeles Rams in 2021. In Woods' final NFL campaign in 2024 with the Houston Texans, he caught 20 of 30 targets for 203 yards and no touchdowns.

49ers Talking Trade Regarding Brandon Aiyuk With Draft Looming

Monday, April 20, 7:26 PM

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said at his pre-draft press conference on Monday that he doesn't think there's a "high probability" that the team will trade disgruntled wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) during the 2026 NFL draft this weekend, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. However, Lynch said there's still a chance Aiyuk is traded, and the team has had talks with specific teams about a potential trade. The Niners are trying to see if they can get anything for the 28-year-old former first-rounder out of Arizona State. If they don't find a trade to their liking, they are expected to release Aiyuk, who missed all of the 2025 season due to a serious knee injury that he suffered early on in 2024. The Washington Commanders are a popular projected landing spot, as it would give him a chance to reunite with quarterback Jayden Daniels, whom he played with in college. Given Aiyuk's uncertain destination in 2026 while coming off a major knee injury, he's a true wild card that will be cheap for fantasy managers in drafts later this year.
