49ers' Brandon Aiyuk joins Kendrick Bourne in pursuit of No. 11 jersey

Two wide receivers on the 49ers want to wear No. 11 next season, but only one can.

A day after Kendrick Bourne wondered if he should request a number change, 49ers first-round pick Brandon Aiyuk also seems to be making a move for it.

Aiyuk, the No. 25 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, posted a Photoshopped image of himself in a 49ers uniform, and he's donning the No. 11.

The number now is available after the 49ers traded veteran Marquise Goodwin to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday.

While Bourne wore No. 11 during his college days at Eastern Washington, Aiyuk wore No. 2 at Arizona State.

So which 49ers wideout should get the number?

It's a tough call. Bourne is the "veteran" with three years of NFL experience under his belt. But Aiyuk is the prized first-round draft pick.

Recent history would suggest Aiyuk will get the number. In 2018, the 49ers gave newly-draft wide receivers Dante Pettis and Richie James numbers in the teens. Last year, Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd were given No. 19 and No. 14 respectively.

If the trend continues, Aiyuk will get No. 11.
