Jauan Jennings Limited on Wednesday, Expected to Play in Week 1
Jauan Jennings (calf) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session but is expected to play in Week 1, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Jennings has been sidelined throughout most of August due to this calf injury. However, seeing him return to the practice, albeit in a limited capacity, is a positive sign. Fantasy managers should continue to keep an eye on his status leading up to the season opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Last season, Jennings enjoyed a breakout campaign, totaling 975 yards on 77 receptions. He found the back of the end zone six times. With Deebo Samuel Sr. now in Washington and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) slated to miss the first month of the season, Jennings has a clear path to open the season as Brock Purdy's go-to option in the passing attack. If he is cleared to play, Jennings carries WR2 upside, facing the Seahawks.
