Jauan Jennings's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings had a muted performance in a 35-10 loss to the Bills in Buffalo on Sunday night. The former seventh-round pick caught three of five targets for a team-high 56 yards. San Francisco's passing offense was almost nonexistent in the snowy affair, as Jennings shared the target lead with Deebo Samuel Sr. There should be sunnier days ahead for Jennings, who is the half-PPR WR23 in points per game this year, sandwiched between Tennesee's Nick Westbook-Ikhine and Jaguars rookie wideout Brian Thomas Jr. Jennings has two favorable matchups left on tap this season -- both at home -- in Week 15 versus the Rams and Week 17 versus Detroit. Next week, however, he gets the Chicago Bears who have allowed the sixth-fewest points per game to wide receivers.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings faces the Bills in Orchard Park for Week 13's Sunday night matchup. Last week in Green Bay -- and catching passes from backup quarterback Brandon Allen -- Jennings led the 49ers in targets with seven, finishing with five receptions for 40 yards. Fortunately, starter Brock Purdy (shoulder) is expected to play in Buffalo, but the encouraging news ends there. Buffalo's pass defense has been the eighth-toughest on fantasy wide receivers and should have a nice home-field advantage as a significant winter storm is expected to bleed into the first quarter. Most significantly, San Francisco will be missing All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) and starting left guard Aaron Banks (concussion). Consider Jennings a risky WR3/FLEX with a significant downgrade into WR4 territory if Purdy is held out again.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings had a muted performance during a 38-10 loss to the Packers in Green Bay on Sunday. The 6-foot-3 former seventh-rounder caught five of seven targets for 40 yards. Except for tight end George Kittle, San Francisco's entire offense struggled to put up numbers during a game in which they were fighting through the absence of quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) and left tackle Trent Williams (ankle). On the bright side, Jennings' target total led all 49ers and he continues to out-produce both Deebo Samuel Sr. and rookie Ricky Pearsall. However, there is no guarantee that the 49ers will be any healthier when they play the Bills in Week 13. Jennings managers will need to monitor the status of Purdy -- and to a lesser degree, Williams -- before setting expectations for the emergent wideout in Buffalo on Sunday Night Football.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings will take on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday. The 27-year-old is making the most of his opportunity this year, filling in for an out-for-the-season Brandon Aiyuk. Jennings surpassed 20 half-PPR points last week versus Seattle by securing 10-of-11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown. The week before, in Tampa, Jennings was less productive but also had 11 targets. As a result, Jennings has surpassed teammate Deebo Samuel Sr. in fantasy value, at least for the moment. Jennings' job is a difficult one this week, however. For one, Green Bay's pass defense has been better than Seattle's, ranking 12th-toughest on wide receivers in fantasy. More importantly, San Francisco will be without starting quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) and potentially All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, who is questionable with an ankle injury. Even still, Jennings is in play for lineups in Week 12 as a firm WR2. He's earned it.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings continued his ascent as a fantasy asset in a Week 11 20-17 home loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. The former seventh-round pick out of Tennessee caught 10 of 11 targets for 91 yards, including a three-yard touchdown reception to give the 49ers a short-lived lead in the fourth quarter. All four receiving numbers were team highs. Jennings isn't just filling up the stat sheet with empty yards either. He's flashing skill and grit in big spots, which all but solidifies his go-to role in the offense for the rest of the year. With two consecutive 11-target games in the books, it's going to be very hard for fantasy managers to leave Jennings out of lineups in Week 12 when the 49ers travel to Lambeau Field to take on the Packers.
