49ers Acknowledge Jauan Jennings Won't Return
The San Francisco 49ers have said goodbye to free agent receiver Jauan Jennings, acknowledging that he won't be back in 2026. "He'll find a good home, and Jauan will go play great football for someone," general manager John Lynch told Vic Tafur of The Athletic. "I can't say enough for what that guy did; when that guy stepped between the lines, man, he was a presence, and they had to deal with him, and he won us a lot of games." Lynch noted that Mike Evans, the new No. 1 receiver in San Francisco, made more sense for the 49ers than Jennings because he is more of a "dynamic fit." Jennings, who remains a free agent heading into April, is coming off back-to-back top-34 finishes at the wide receiver position in fantasy football. Just last season, he caught 55 passes for 643 yards and a career-high nine touchdowns in 15 games. His 2026 fantasy outlook will depend on his landing spot, but he's probably a safe bet to finish among the top 36 fantasy receivers again next year.
