Who Should I Start? Calvin Ridley or Jauan Jennings

Saturday, July 26, 3:40 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley has reportedly been rookie quarterback Cam Ward's favorite target during Saturday's practice, with the two notably hooking up on a deep out route down the sideline. Ridley seems like the natural fit to lead Tennessee in receiving again in 2025 after collecting his second consecutive 1,000-yard season with a different team (Jacksonville). He could stand to get more work, however, with the news of fellow wideout Treylon Burks (shoulder) fracturing his collarbone on Saturday. Aside from tight end Chig Okonkwo, Ridley is the most tenured pass-catcher amongst the potential starters, with Tyler Lockett and Van Jefferson acquired in free agency, and Chimere Dike and Elic Ayomanor selected in April's draft. The 30-year-old's week-to-week production could be up-and-down, but he is the unquestioned No. 1 option in the Titans' passing offense and a high-floor fantasy asset in the top 75 picks.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (calf) is still dealing with a calf issue that forced him to leave Sunday's practice early. This is the same injury that Jennings dealt with during the team's offseason program, but the belief at the time was that it would not impact his training camp availability. The 49ers' wide receiver room has been one of the biggest question marks in fantasy heading into the 2025 season. With Jennings leaving practice early on the same day that Ricky Pearsall (hamstring) was activated off the PUP list, this is certainly a situation worth monitoring. Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is on the PUP list, recovering from a torn ACL he sustained last season. After watching many notable defensive stalwarts find new homes in free agency, the 49ers may need to score a lot this year to stay in games, and whoever can secure the team's WR1 spot is going to be an extremely valuable fantasy asset. Jennings is considered day-to-day for now.
