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.

Jayden Reed Up To 199 Pounds

Thursday, May 15, 1:01 PM

Green Bay Packers passing-game coordinator Jason Vrable said that wide receiver Jayden Reed is up to 199 pounds (up from 185 as a rookie) and has been one of the leaders of the receiver group this offseason. Vrable said that Reed has been "helping Matthew Golden with every single play." The 25-year-old was on pace for his first 1,000-yard season in 2024 in his sophomore campaign in the first half before fading down the stretch and then suffering a dislocated shoulder in the wild-card playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Despite the team adding Golden and Savion Williams in this year's draft, the Packers still view Reed as their "top receiver." However, until we see it, the slot wideout's volume could be volatile, even with Christian Watson (knee) potentially miss half the season. Reed has the potential for a breakout, but he should be viewed as a boom/bust WR3/flex.
