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

Leads team in receiving Sunday
WRSan Francisco 49ers
September 29, 2024
Jennings turned three receptions (six targets) into 88 yards in Sunday's 30-13 victory over New England.
ANALYSIS
Jennings failed to replicate last week's three-score performance for eager fantasy managers, but the veteran receiver still led the 49ers in targets and receiving yards, and that was with fellow starters Deebo Samuel (calf) and Brandon Aiyuk both active. San Francisco's slot man remains a hot play in fantasy while his role on offense remains enlarged sans Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles). The case can be made for Jennings to start in nearly any format, given his recent production and a favorable home matchup against Arizona on tap for Week 5.

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
Historic effort in Week 3 loss
WRSan Francisco 49ers
September 22, 2024
Jennings became the first 49ers wide receiver since Jerry Rice in 1995 to post at least 10 catches, 150 yards and three touchdowns in a game during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams, David Lombardi of the San Francisco Standard reports.
ANALYSIS
Jennings caught 11 of 12 targets for 175 yards and three touchdowns, but a late collapse from the 49ers cost them the game despite his heroics. That outstanding production came with fellow wide receiver Deebo Samuel sidelined by a calf injury, and Samuel will liekly remain sidelined against the Patriots in Week 4, which could lead to Jennings maintaining an expanded role.
