Player performance

Jauan Jennings was a seventh-round pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. He joined a 49ers team with Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel as the clear starters. In his rookie season, he split time with Mohamed Sanu in his final NFL season as the 49ers' slot receiver in three-receiver sets. In 2022 and 2023, he took over the slot role. There were often other wide receivers ahead of him on the depth chart in two-receiver sets like Ray-Ray McCloud III and Ronnie Bell, which made Jennings a non-factor for fantasy purposes, even if there was an injury to an outside receiver. He scored two touchdowns in 2022 and 2023 combined.
