Jauan Jennings Fantasy

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught both of his targets for 11 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 17-11 Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The second-year wideout was drafted in the seventh round but was able to find the end zone during a defensive battle in Philadelphia. Jennings should remain on waiver wires but can be stashed on benches in deeper leagues.

The San Francisco 49ers have waived seventh-round pick Jauan Jennings, a wide receiver out of Tennessee. Jennings was expected to compete for a roster spot on a team that lacks a standout wide receiver outside of Deebo Samuel, but now it looks like he'll be heading for a practice squad spot unless another team decides to take a chance on him. His slow 40-time is a concern for his NFL future, but he's still in a decent position in terms of deep dynasty leagues if he's on the 49ers practice squad, as there's not a lot set in stone on this depth chart and Jennings could wind up on the active roster at some point in the future.

With the 217th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers selected Tennessee wide receiver Jauan Jennings. The 49ers have plenty of receivers still on roster, but they certainly need more after losing Emmanuel Sanders in free agency and trading Marquise Goodwin to the Eagles on Saturday. They need someone to step up outside of Deebo Samuel in 2020, and they hope it can be first-round pick Brandon Aiyuk. Jennings doesn't create a ton of separation but is great at picking up yards after the catch because of his size and balance. Head coach Kyle Shanahan has a new toy to play with, and Jennings could certainly contribute in his rookie year, just don't expect him to be relevant in redraft leagues.
