2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jennings is a talented player, but he is often used as a blocking receiver. The veteran was targeted fewer than three times per game. In addition, Jennings rarely played 30 snaps in a game. As long as the 49ers are a run-heavy team, Jennings may not have much of a role in the passing attack. Also, the 49ers used a first-round pick on slot receiver Ricky Pearsall, so Jennings is unlikely to produce useful fantasy numbers with consistency. Should either of the top-two receivers miss time for the 49ers, Jennings could see increased volume, which would raise his fantasy value. Read Past Outlooks

Highly inefficient in loss
WRSan Francisco 49ers
December 12, 2024
Jennings secured two of nine targets for 31 yards in the 49ers' 12-6 loss to the Rams on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Just four days after bringing in seven of eight targets -- a pair of touchdown grabs among them -- against the Bears, Jennings saw a team-high target total in Thursday's rainy conditions but was highly inefficient. The veteran wideout entered Thursday with a solid 73.1 percent catch rate on the season, and his struggles led to his lowest yardage total since Week 6. Jennings will aim to bounce back against a talented Dolphins secondary in a Week 16 road interconference battle on Sunday, Dec. 22.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
Jennings fortified his hold on the 49ers' slot receiver role in his third year as a pro last season. The 25-year-old was unable to build on the five touchdowns he tallied in 2021, finishing with just one score to go with his 35 receptions and 416 yards. If Jennings and his 6-3 frame can improve in the red zone this year, he would see a boost to his current fantasy value. The 2020 seventh-round pick doesn't have the athleticism of fellow wideouts Deebo Samuel or Brandon Aiyuk, but Jennings will provide strong run blocking and sure hands for San Francisco in the fall.
Jennings took on the vacated slot receiver role once veteran Mohamed Sanu went down to injury midseason. A seventh-round pick in 2020, Jennings thrived in a more prominent role, racking up 21 receptions (on 32 targets) for 251 yards and four touchdowns over the final nine games of the regular season. Blessed with a 6-3, 212-pound frame, the third-year wideout provides a reliable red-zone target with plus blocking. Perhaps Jennings generates fantasy appeal in his current role at third on the Week 1 projected depth chart if Trey Lance can open up San Francisco's passing game.
The 49ers selected Jennings with its final pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-3 wideout brings much-needed size to the team's receiving corps following the season-ending injury to Jalen Hurd. What the 23-year-old lacks in speed (4.72 40-yard dash), he makes up for in soft hands and strong after-the-catch ability (29 broken tackles in his senior year at Tennessee). Jennings will have to prove his worth during training camp to squeeze onto the 53-man roster, but he will also be practice squad eligible as well.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Getting Purdy back
WRSan Francisco 49ers
November 30, 2024
Jennings and the 49ers' offense will receive a boost for Sunday's night game against the Bills, as quarterback Brock Purdy is expected to return from a one-game absence due to a right shoulder injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 49ers' offense was limited to just 10 points and 241 yards of offense in Week 12 against the Packers with backup quarterback Brandon Allen under center, and Jennings finished with five catches on seven targets for 40 yards. That's in stark contrast to Jennings' prior two outings, during which he logged 17 receptions on 22 targets for 184 yards and one touchdown while catching passes from Purdy. Jennings has stepped up as the 49ers' No. 2 wide receiver behind Deebo Samuel following Brandon Aiyuk's season-ending knee injury in Week 7 against the Chiefs.
