Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Jordan Addison

Across 15 games in 2025, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings recorded 55 receptions for 643 yards and nine touchdowns on 90 targets. The 28-year-old proved the ability to provide stable production, earning at least five targets in 10 out of his final 11 games of the season. Jennings also established himself as a red zone threat, scoring six touchdowns over his final six outings. Particularly with fellow 49ers wideout Ricky Pearsall (knee, ankle) battling injuries, Jennings appears poised to remain in his team's WR1 role for their Wild Card Weekend matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. While Jennings may not carry explosive production upside, he's a solid bet for somewhere between five to seven targets and should get some looks in the end zone. Fantasy managers in playoff leagues should view Jennings as a solid wide receiver option entering the postseason.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison, who has a history of legal troubles since he entered the NFL, was arrested and booked into a Florida jail on Monday for probable-cause trespassing in an occupied structure, according to Joe Nelson of Sports Illustrated. Addison was released on Monday after posting a $500 cash bond. The 23-year-old pass-catcher was suspended for three games in 2025 for his 2024 DUI arrest in Los Angeles. In his third year in the NFL with the Vikings, Addison had his worst showing, catching 42 of 79 targets for a career-low 610 receiving yards and three touchdowns in 14 games played. Obviously, Addison's three-game suspension didn't help, but he was also more inconsistent every week with second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy struggling with efficiency, turnovers, and injuries. It remains to be seen if he'll be facing another suspension to begin the 2026 season.
