Jauan Jennings Unproductive In Week 7 Win

Tuesday, October 21, 1:33 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings' (ankle, ribs, shoulder) seven targets in Week 7 were second on the team to Christian McCaffrey's eight in the team's Week 7 win over the Falcons. In the 49ers' run-heavy attack on Sunday night, Jennings was the only player other than McCaffrey to see more than two targets. Despite the relatively heavy usage, the receiver only brought in four receptions for 31 yards. This latest letdown perpetuates Jennings' disappointing 2025, wherein he has 14 receptions for 167 yards and one touchdown in five games. Ricky Pearsall's (knee) status is uncertain, but with tight end George Kittle (hamstring) back from injured reserve, Jennings might see his target share scaled back. Jennings projects as a low-end WR3 for the 49ers' upcoming matchup against the Texans in Week 8.

Zay Flowers Officially Active in Week 6

Sunday, October 12, 11:39 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (shoulder), who was listed as questionable for the Week 6 game against the visiting Los Angeles Rams, is officially active for Sunday's contest. Flowers was limited in practice all week but will suit up as the Ravens look to avoid falling to 1-5 on the season. They'll have to do it without star quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) for the second straight week, which won't be easy against L.A. Flowers caught all five of his targets for 72 yards in last week's blowout loss to the Houston Texans, with quarterback Cooper Rush making the start. It wasn't a bad showing for fantasy purposes, all things considered, but expecting a repeat of that performance from Flowers might be wishful thinking this weekend. He's definitely a fade candidate in DFS, and fantasy managers might want to consider benching him in regular leagues, too, as he's expected to play fewer snaps as he battles through his shoulder injury.
