WATCH: 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk goes flying, hurdles defender for TD

Watch San Francisco 49ers rookie Brandon Aiyuk go airborne on his way to the end zone against the Philadelphia Eagles

There’s a reason the San Francisco 49ers traded up in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft to land Arizona State wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk.

One of the most well-rounded and athletic receiver prospects in this year’s draft class, Aiyuk took a quick screen pass from quarterback Nick Mullens, got a few nice blocks, and finished it off by going airborne over a defender and landing on his feet in the end zone.

The defender never even touched Aiyuk, who gave 49ers just a slice of what he’s capable of bringing to their already potent offense.
