San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings wants a new contract or to be traded heading into the 2025 NFL season. Jennings, who is set to make $7.5 million in the last year of his current deal, racked up career highs in receptions (77), receiving yards (975), and receiving touchdowns (six) a season ago. The 28-year-old is likely to start the season as the team's WR1 with Brandon Aiyuk (knee) potentially starting the season on the PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) list. Based on the average salary of his active deal, he ranks outside the top 40 wideouts. The former seventh-round pick out of Tennessee has a strong case to deserve a pay raise, and it would be somewhat surprising if the organization does not work with him, given its scarcity of pass-catchers behind tight end George Kittle. Should the Niners decide to trade him instead, his fantasy football outlook could be positively or negatively affected. His departure would open the door for sophomore Ricky Pearsall.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Trishton Jackson has been making a strong case to win a spot on the 53-man roster. The 25-year-old worked with the first-team offense during Thursday's joint practice. It appears he's back to full speed after suffering a knee injury earlier in training camp. He has mainly been getting increased reps due to the fact Jordan Addison (concussion) is sidelined right now. Jackson is making the most of his chances and could earn that final wideout spot. However, there's a good chance he ends up on the practice squad, so it's unlikely Jackson will provide fantasy value this season.
