Jauan Jennings Taking Part in Practice

Wednesday, July 23, 3:36 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings is participating in Wednesday's training camp practice and is leading the team's wide receivers in drills, according to David Lombardi of The Athletic. Recent reports suggested Jennings wants a new contract and requested a trade, making him a hold-in candidate, but that appears not to be the case. With Ricky Pearsall (hamstring), Brandon Aiyuk (knee), and Jacob Cowing (hamstring) all dealing with injuries, and Deebo Samuel Sr. now in Washington, Jennings has the chance to establish himself as the clear WR1 in the Bay. The former seventh-round pick out of Tennessee set career highs in receptions (77), receiving yards (975), and touchdowns (six) last season in 15 games and could be a 1,000-yard receiver in 2025. Despite the offseason rumors surrounding Jennings, he is a potential steal at his WR40 cost in preseason drafts.

All Systems Go for Chris Olave Ahead of Camp

Tuesday, July 22, 4:16 PM

ESPN's Erin Summers reports that New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (head) is a full go ahead of the team's training camp. It's excellent news for the former Ohio State Buckeye, whose 2024 was marred by multiple concussions that forced him to miss nine contests. Olave is a gifted NFL wide receiver, though we haven't quite seen his full upside in fantasy. Despite entering the season healthy, that may not be the case again, with questions surrounding the quarterback position after Derek Carr's abrupt departure. As of now, Tyler Shough appears to be the favorite to win the job over Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener. If Shough is just average, that'd be enough to make Olave's current price in drafts worth the risk. Talent has never been a concern for the 25-year-old, but his current situation doesn't inspire much confidence -- even as his team's unquestioned No. 1 wideout.
