Found a great article by Marco Santarossa that shows multiple approaches to fixing. https://marcosantadev.com/calayer-auto-layout-swift/

I used his first suggestion to reset the layer frame during viewDidLayoutSubViews() event.

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
    super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
    playerLayer.frame = view.layer.bounds
}
