Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Malik Nabers

Saturday, May 10, 3:19 PM

Per the team's transcript on Thursday, San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak noted that wide receiver Jauan Jennings still views himself as the No.1 guy in San Francisco. Specifically, Kubiak was asked if Jennings would resume WR1 duties for the team with uncertainty surrounding teammate Brandon Aiyuk's (knee) status. "I think, if you ask Jauan, he says 'I'm No. 1," he replied. "And that's his mindset, and that's why we love Jauan." The 27-year-old was an afterthought in fantasy drafts last summer, but injuries opened up opportunity, and the former seventh-round pick ran with it. Jennings led all 49ers pass-catchers not named George Kittle in receptions (77), yards (975), and touchdowns (six). He may have to stave off a second-year ascension from fellow wideout Ricky Pearsall, but Jennings should again have a shot to be productive in 2025.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (toe) is not practicing on Wednesday, according to Connor Hughes of SNY. The injury reportedly dates back to the receiver's time at LSU, and he just needs a rest day. Hughes' report suggests that the injury is not serious and that Nabers should return to practice soon. This is good news for the Giants and fantasy managers alike. Despite poor quarterback play, Nabers dominated during his rookie season, catching 109 passes for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns through 15 games. He finished as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues, and he could presumably rank inside the top three in 2025 with a full season of Russell Wilson under center.
