Jauan Jennings Could Thrive In Slot

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings tallied two more touchdowns in Week 15 but again turned in a low-yardage game with just 37 yards against the Titans. Jennings has at least one touchdown in five of the 49ers' last six games, but is averaging 47.2 yards per game during that stretch. He could be in store for a more productive day in Week 16, when San Francisco faces the Indianapolis Colts, which has surrendered more receiving yards to slot targets than any other team. Jennings has played out of the slot more frequently than any other receiver for San Francisco this season. If Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) is unable to play, then Jennings would likely see a slight bump in targets on Monday, as well. Jennings projects as a WR2 and can be plugged into starting lineups in Week 16.

Jauan Jennings Riding Three-Game Touchdown Streak

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has had a solid season and had his first two-touchdown game in the Week 15 win over the Tennessee Titans, hauling in three of five targets for 37 yards. It was Jennings' fourth multi-touchdown game of his career, and first since Week 14 of last season. The 28-year-old has now scored in three straight games and five of the last six, ranking as the WR16 in PPR points in that time. Jennings is third on the 49ers in target share (18.2%) this season, behind star running back Christian McCaffrey (21.3%) and tight end George Kittle (19.7%), after leading the team in that area last season (22.7%). He's been running hot on touchdowns in recent weeks, and projects as a solid WR2 for the Week 16 Monday night matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Jauan Jennings Visits End Zone Twice In Win

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings scored two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans. Jennings' day was propped up by the scores as he finished with just three catches for 37 receiving yards on five targets. This fits the mold of a trend that has been in the works for the last several weeks. Jennings is now up to six touchdowns in the 49ers' last six games, but in that span, he has averaged 47.2 yards and 4.3 receptions per game, making his fantasy production extremely reliant on touchdowns. Jennings may be in for a more balanced game in Week 16, when the 49ers face the Colts. Indianapolis has given up the most receptions and second-most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025. He projects as a WR2 candidate for the semi-final round of the fantasy football playoffs.

Jauan Jennings Set Up for Success Against Titans

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings should benefit from a favorable matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 15. While the Titans' pass defense has been better than their run defense, they've still allowed the sixth-most receiving yards and seventh-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Jennings has been one of the more dependable targets in San Francisco, scoring a touchdown in four of his last five games. During that span, he ranks as the overall WR20 in PPR leagues. He'll face competition from Christian McCaffrey and lose some targets to George Kittle, but there's no denying that Jennings is the best true wide receiver on the 49ers, especially with Ricky Pearsall catching just five passes over his last three games. Jennings is the overall WR23 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings, and he should be started in all leagues.

Jauan Jennings Has An Inviting Matchup In Week 15

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings will get a chance to build on his recent bump in productivity when the team hosts the Titans in Week 15. Jennings is riding a seven-game streak with at least four receptions and has caught a touchdown in four of the 49ers' last games. It should be noted that in that span, he averaged just 49.2 receiving yards per game. He will have a chance to do more damage against a Titans secondary that has allowed at least 76 receiving yards plus a touchdown to their opponents' leading receivers in each of their last four games. Jennings has seemingly been unaffected by Ricky Pearsall's return to action and is consistently among one of Brock Purdy's favorite targets, alongside George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey. Jennings projects as a WR2 in Week 15, making him a viable starter as the fantasy football playoffs get underway.

Jauan Jennings Surges into Fantasy Playoffs

After a slow start to the 2025 season, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has proved himself as a must-start receiver moving into the fantasy playoffs. Jennings has caught a touchdown in four of his last five starts and has averaged 13.9 PPR fantasy points per game since Week 9. His hot streak has gotten him back to his WR1 role in San Francisco, ahead of Ricky Pearsall and Brandon Aiyuk. With Aiyuk (knee) unlikely to play in 2025, Jennings has no reason to slow down. He faces the Tennessee Titans in Week 15, who have allowed the sixth-most receiving yards to wide receivers in 2025, and struggled to maintain Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the snow in Week 14. Fantasy managers can fully trust Jennings as a starting option in the fantasy playoffs, as he looks to extend his touchdown streak following the bye.

Jauan Jennings Continues to Provide Consistent Production in San Francisco

Across 11 games this season, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has recorded 41 catches for 458 yards and five touchdowns. As the 49ers hit their bye in Week 14, the 28-year-old is playing some of his best football. Across his last five games, Jennings has recorded 23 catches for 246 yards and four touchdowns on 33 targets. While San Francisco has other talented weapons on their offense, Jennings continues to play a highly consistent role in the team's passing game. He's seen at least six targets in six out of his last seven games played. Additionally, it appears 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) may not take the field at all in 2025 after San Francisco voided guarantees in his contract while he works his way back from a knee injury. Jennings looks like the WR1 in San Francisco and should remain a solid starting option for fantasy managers down the stretch of the season.

Jauan Jennings Catches TD in Week 13 Victory

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught four of a team-high six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the team's 26-8 win over the Browns in Week 13. With Sunday's trip to the end zone, Jennings now has a touchdown reception in four of the 49ers' last five games. The 28-year-old has ranked first or second in team targets in every game going back to Week 7, though that has not equated to fantasy success. Jennings has had 45 receiving yards or fewer during that stretch, his recent spate of touchdowns salvaging otherwise mediocre production. The 49ers are on bye in Week 14, but Jennings will have a chance to step things up against some generous opponents in the fantasy football playoffs. In Weeks 15 through 17, San Francisco faces the Titans, Colts, and Bears, all of which rank in the top ten in points allowed to opposing wide receivers.

Jauan Jennings Faces Daunting Matchup In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings' touchdown on their opening drive in Week 12 salvaged what would have otherwise been a poor showing. Amid Brock Purdy's (toe) struggles against the Panthers, Jennings finished the game with five catches for 41 yards and the score on seven targets. Jennings now has a touchdown in three of the 49ers' last four games, and has at least four receptions per game going back to Week 7. In Week 13, San Francisco goes to Cleveland to face the Browns, who have allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game and second-fewest receptions and receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Further dampening Jennings' prospects on Sunday is the forecasted inclement weather, which is expected to feature winds in excess of 25 MPH, rain, and snow. Fantasy football managers should exercise caution with Jennings, who ranks as a WR4 in Week 13.

Jauan Jennings Won't be Suspended

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that the NFL will review San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings' actions on Monday night against the Carolina Panthers for a possible fine, but he won't be suspended. Panthers safety Tre'Von Moehrig took a cheap shot to a sensitive area for Jennings late in Monday night's game, and Jennings had to be held back following the conclusion of the contest. The 28-year-old caught five of his seven targets for 41 yards and his fourth touchdown of the season in the 20-9 victory. Three of Jennings' four scores on the year have come in the last four games, and he has a higher fantasy ceiling with quarterback Brock Purdy recovered from a turf-toe injury that caused him to miss most of the season. Going into a tough Week 13 matchup against the Cleveland Browns, Jennings should be viewed as a touchdown-dependent WR3/flex option.

Jauan Jennings Catches Touchdown in Monday Night Win

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught five of seven targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's win over the Carolina Panthers. His first-quarter touchdown came on an impressive catch and run where he fought through two defenders on his way into the end zone. Jennings continues his strong stretch of production over the last four games, recording 19 receptions for 217 yards and three touchdowns on 27 targets. The recent return of second-year wideout Ricky Pearsall hasn't affected Jennings' production, with Pearsall totaling just three catches for nine yards in the past two games. The 28-year-old Jennings has been a reliable target earner for San Francisco alongside multiple other capable weapons and a heavy dose of touches devoted to Christian McCaffrey. Jennings will rank on the WR2/WR3 border again in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns.

Jauan Jennings Has Top-24 Potential Against Carolina

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings held onto his role at the top of the depth chart despite Ricky Pearsall's (knee) return in Week 11. Jennings, Christian McCaffrey, and George Kittle led the team in targets with six apiece, though Brock Purdy's (toe) three touchdown throws went to the latter two, leaving Jennings with a mediocre 4-54-0 line in a 41-22 rout of the Cardinals. Jennings is in line for a more productive game in Week 12 against the Carolina Panthers. Carolina's secondary has been slipping lately, resulting in a top-12 finish for an opposing wide receiver in three of the last four weeks (the gap filled by a top-24 performance). Jennings straddles the line between WR2 and WR3 in Week 12 projections and is worthy of a starting slot in fantasy football lineups.

Jauan Jennings Reuniting With Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings had his most productive game since Week 2 in last week's loss to the Rams. Jennings had a season-high six catches for 71 yards and a touchdown against Los Angeles. The score was his second in as many weeks. Jennings' recent spike in productivity has been a welcome turnaround for fantasy football managers who held onto him through several weeks of injuries and single-digit fantasy scores. In Week 11, Jennings stands to benefit from the return of Brock Purdy (toe) to San Francisco's starting lineup after a six-game absence. Also coming back is fellow receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee), whose return will be a double-edged sword for Jennings. On the one hand, Pearsall might eat into Jennings' target share, but on the other, the former's presence might open things up for the latter to do more with less. Jennings projects as a WR3 with upside against a beatable Cardinals secondary in Week 11.

Jauan Jennings Gets Another TD In Week 10

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught six of his nine targets for 71 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 10. He also lost a fumble in the team's 42-26 loss to the Rams. The touchdown was Jennings' second in as many weeks and his third of the season. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) out, Jennings is the 49ers' unquestioned WR1. Jennings' production has not met preseason expectations, especially while being targeted on 25.4% of routes run. Week 10 was just Jennings' second top-24 finish among wide receivers, but as long as he continues seeing that kind of opportunity share, Jennings is still worth keeping in fantasy football lineups. Another good week could be in store when the 49ers face the Cardinals in Week 11. Jennings was inactive when the teams met in Week 3, but Pearsall posted 117 yards on eight catches in that game.

Jauan Jennings Looking For Another Big Game Against Rams

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder) carries no designation into the team's Week 10 rematch with the Los Angeles Rams. Jennings, along with Ricky Pearsall (knee) and George Kittle, missed the teams' first matchup in Week 5 due to injuries, leading to a ten-catch, 142-yard bonanza for Kendrick Bourne. Jennings himself torched Los Angeles to the tune of 11-175-3 in Week 3 last season. Since returning from his absence, Jennings has not been very productive, though he still has been a focal point of the 49ers' offense. Over the last three weeks, he had a 24.7% target share and 34.6% air yard share. The Rams will likely have their attention focused on Christian McCaffrey on Sunday, which could open things up for Jennings to take another step forward. He projects as a WR3 and can be started in most leagues in Week 10.

Jauan Jennings Sees Stock Rising as 49ers Top Target

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings continues to rise, as he has clearly become the primary receiving target of quarterback Mac Jones. While Christian McCaffrey remains the bell-cow in this offense, Jennings has passed Kendrick Bourne as the primary downfield threat. Jennings has seen 19 targets over the past three weeks, to Bourne's eight. This spike in usage suggests a healthier version of Jennings that we did not see early in the season. With his stock rising, those who held firm through his struggles early are being rewarded. Jennings should be considered a must-start as the team faces off with the Rams, who the 49ers defeated in Week 5 without Jennings on the field.

Jauan Jennings Gets TD Grab In Win

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings brought in his second touchdown of the season in the team's 34-24 win over the New York Giants in Week 9. Jennings caught four of five targets for 41 yards and the score. From a fantasy standpoint, it was his most productive game since Week 2, when he posted a 5-89-1 line against the Saints. Jennings ranked second on the team in targets and yards behind Christian McCaffrey and tied with tight end George Kittle for second (again, behind McCaffrey) in receptions. Jennings' place among the trio as San Francisco's top pass-catchers is secure for the time being. Once Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) return, he may fall in the pecking order. In Week 10, Jennings projects as a WR3 against a Rams defense that was torched by teammate Kendrick Bourne for 142 yards in Week 5.

Several Teams Interested in Trading for Jauan Jennings

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has generated interest ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. trade deadline, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. The 49ers fielded trade calls on Jennings prior to training camp, and some of those same teams that previously called are now interested in him once again. Head coach Kyle Shanahan recently said that he would be surprised if Jennings wasn't on the team at the end of the 2025 season, but he also didn't rule out a trade. Through six games this year, the 28-year-old receiver has 18 catches, 212 yards, and one touchdown, operating as an impact starter alongside Ricky Pearsall when both are healthy. If San Francisco were to part with Jennings, their top two receivers would be Pearsall and Kendrick Bourne, at least until Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is healthy enough to play again.

Jauan Jennings Cleared, But Hard To Trust For Week 9

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) logged three full practices this week and carries no designation on the team's final injury report. Jennings has been rather ineffective when active, catching just 18 of his 36 targets for 212 yards and one touchdown in six games. He has also looked out of sync with quarterback Mac Jones (knee), who has filled in for Brock Purdy (toe) in six starts this season and will get his seventh in Week 9. The Giants give up the sixth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers, but based on what we have seen from Jennings so far, he will be hard to trust on Sunday. Projecting as a borderline WR3/4, he probably needs to be used in three-WR setups and in deeper leagues, but fantasy managers in shallower leagues can and should find a more reliable option in Week 9.

Jauan Jennings Leads Team In Targets, Yards

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) led the team in targets and yards in their 26-15 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 8. Jennings mirrored his Week 7 totals with four catches on seven targets, but produced more yards this time around, finishing with 45. It was a tepid offering on a day when Mac Jones (knee) and the 49ers generated only 223 net yards on offense. It is yet to be seen if Brock Purdy (toe) will be healthy enough to resume starting quarterback duties in Week 9. Regardless of who is under center, Jennings should be one of the 49ers' top target earners alongside Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle. Ricky Pearsall (knee) is awaiting evaluation on Wednesday, and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is still likely a few weeks away from his return. The 49ers next face the Giants, who have given up the most receiving yards and the second-most receptions to opposing wide receivers.
