Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or K.J. Osborn

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) logged an entire week of full practices for the first time this season. Week 8 won't be the best time to bet on a Jennings rebound, though. The emergence of Kendrick Bourne and the return of George Kittle mean Jennings won't necessarily be quarterback Mac Jones' (knee, oblique) primary focus, despite Ricky Pearsall (knee) being out again. Considering Houston's defensive prowess (fewest points allowed; 57.8% pass completion allowed), the 49ers are in for another run-heavy slog akin to their Week 7 matchup against the Falcons. Given his track record and the matchup, it is hard to see Jennings beating his projection as a WR3. Fantasy football managers are justified in leaving him on the bench.

The Washington Commanders are re-signing veteran wide receiver K.J. Osborn, according to team reporter John Keim. The 27-year-old was claimed off waivers by Washington in November following his release by the New England Patriots and appeared in one game for the Commanders. The 2020 fifth-round pick out of Miami by the Minnesota Vikings has collected 165 receptions for 1,902 yards and 16 touchdowns in 66 career games. Washington also re-signed wideout Noah Brown and traded for Pro Bowler Deebo Samuel Sr. this offseason, so it's tough to expect Osborn to have any fantasy value in 2025.
