Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Chris Olave

Wednesday, September 17, 5:21 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder) is not scheduled to practice on Wednesday as the team begins preparations for the Week 3 game against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. Jennings injured his shoulder in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks and then picked up an ankle injury in Sunday's win over the New Orleans Saints. The 28-year-old also dealt with a calf injury for most of the summer, so it's been one thing after another for him so far in 2025. The good news is that he played 87% of the offensive snaps in Week 2 and caught five of his 10 targets for 89 yards and a touchdown as the top target for backup quarterback Mac Jones. Starter Brock Purdy (toe) is expected to miss at least another week, so if Jennings plays this Sunday against Arizona, he should be viewed as a boom/bust WR4/flex in fantasy lineups.

Despite heading to the medical tent twice, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave led the team with 13 targets, turning them into seven receptions for 54 yards in Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Kellen Moore's offense appeared aggressive, as quarterback Spencer Rattler attempted a career-high 46 passes in Week 1. This bodes well for the fourth-year receiver, who looks poised to become a go-to target in the pass-heavy attack. Olave should have plenty of opportunities to build chemistry with Rattler and, as long as he remains healthy, projects as a borderline WR2/WR3 this week against the San Francisco 49ers.
