News

  • Signs his one-year tender

    The 49ers re-signed Jennings to a one-year, $940,000 contract Monday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings signed the dotted line Monday in order to get on the field for the start of the 49ers' offseason workout program this week. The seventh-round pick in 2020 has developed into a key member of San Francisco's offense as the third wideout and slot man. He has 59 catches for 698 yards and six touchdowns over the last two seasons.

    Published: Mon, Apr 17 at 11:47am by Rotowire.com

  • Filled slot role in 2022

    Jennings finished with 35 receptions (56 targets) for 416 yards and a touchdown in 16 regular-season games with San Francisco this season.

    Analysis: Jennings saw his offensive usage rise as the 49ers' slot receiver in his sophomore campaign. However, the 6-foot-3 wideout was unable to break through as a fantasy asset due to a lack of touchdowns. Jennings is scheduled to become a free agent this upcoming offseason, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him stay in San Francisco after carving out a solid role this year.

  • Ready for divisional round

    Jennings (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Cowboys, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings operated under practice restrictions Wednesday and Thursday due to an ankle injury, but it won't impact his ability to suit up for the second round of the playoffs. With Deebo Samuel available the last two games, Jennings has moved back to a complementary role behind Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, gathering in three of seven targets for 51 yards during that span.

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Jennings (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: As he did Wednesday, giving Jennings just one more chance to get back to all activity before the 49ers potentially hand him a designation for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Cowboys. In 17 appearances this season (including playoffs), he's been targeted at least twice on every occasion, which likely is what he'll be in store for this weekend, if active, with fellow wide receivers Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk available to the offense.

  • Will be limited Wednesday

    Jennings (ankle) will be a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Jennings tweaked his ankle during the 49ers' wild-card win over Seattle this past weekend and was deemed day-to-day by head coach Kyle Shanahan on Monday. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but it's a positive sign to see him at least get some work in during Wednesday's practice. Jennings will have two more opportunities to log a full session before San Francisco needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's wild-card matchup against Dallas.

  • Dealing with ankle injury

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Jennings is day-to-day with an ankle injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear exactly when Jennings tweaked his ankle during the 49ers' wild-card win over Seattle on Saturday, but he finished the contest with two receptions on five targets for 41 yards across 26 offensive snaps. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but it's a concerning development for the third-year wideout, who caught 35 of 56 targets for 416 yards and a score across 16 regular-season appearances.

  • Held to one catch in season finale

    Jennings caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 38-13 win over Arizona.

    Analysis: Jennings dropped back to third on the receiver depth chart following Deebo Samuel's (ankle) return from a three-game absence, finishing with 26 snaps on offense (43 percent share) Sunday. The 25-year-old finished the regular season with 35 receptions for 416 yards and a touchdown. He'll likely remain in a low-usage role during Saturday's wild-card game against the Seahawks now that the 49ers have all their key skill-position players available.

  • Gains 46 yards on two receptions

    Jennings caught two of three targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 37-34 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Jennings made a couple of big catches in his third start in place of Deebo Samuel (ankle/knee), but his target share remained low despite the increased role. It has become clear that head coach Kyle Shanahan doesn't plan to draw up more plays for the veteran wideout even as a starter. That being said, Jennings' value should remain unchanged whether or not Samuel is able to return against the Cardinals on Sunday.

  • Disappoints in start

    Jennings had two receptions (three targets) for 21 yards in Saturday's 37-20 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Jennings received another start in place of the injured Deebo Samuel (knee/ankle), logging 46 offensive snaps (88 percent) and finishing third in team targets. The 25-year-old did not experience an increase in production despite seeing his regular snap count double in these two starts. Samuel's earliest timetable could have him returning ahead of a Week 17 matchup against the Raiders. If he is not ready to return, Jennings would garner another start -- with limited upside -- on New Year's Day.

  • Three catches in win

    Jennings brought in three of five targets for 31 yards in the 49ers' 21-13 win over the Seahawks on Thursday night.

    Analysis: Jennings played a modest role despite the absence of Deebo Samuel (knee), checking in a distant second to George Kittle in receiving yardage. However, it was a relatively quiet night for the air attack overall, with Jennings' five targets checking in second on the team for the night. The fourth-year pro should have another opportunity to operate as the No. 2 wideout in a Week 16 home matchup against the Commanders a week from Saturday.

  • Role could increase in Week 15

    Jennings played 20 offensive snaps (34 percent) and finished with one catch (two targets) for five yards in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Jennings turned in one of his worst performances in rookie Brock Purdy's first career start. It's hard to recommend a player after a poor outing, but the 49ers may be without the services of Deebo Samuel (knee/ankle) for the immediate future, opening the door for Jennings to potentially start alongside Brandon Aiyuk. Assuming that holds true, the 25-year-old could generate some deep-league value against the Seahawks on Thursday.

  • Nabs two catches Sunday

    Jennings finished with two receptions on four targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 33-17 win over Miami.

    Analysis: Fresh off of his best fantasy game of the season, Jennings reverted to his usual modest production. The 49ers lost starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) for the season, so it was encouraging to see the team's No. 3 wideout continuing to perform as expected with third-string rookie Brock Purdy under center. Jennings shouldn't be considered a starting fantasy option against the Buccaneers in Week 14.

  • Scores first TD of 2022

    Jennings caught six of seven targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 13-0 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Jennings scored his first touchdown of the 2022 campaign in unusual fashion Sunday. Jimmy Garoppolo was targeting his tallest wideout in the back corner of the end zone, but Tyrann Mathieu deflected the ball and Jennings was there to catch it as he was falling from his initial leaping attempt. The end result was a strong fantasy line from the 49ers' No. 3 receiver, who was coming off of a catch-less outing against the Cardinals in Week 11. Jennings played his usual allotment of offensive snaps…read more

  • Fails to record a catch

    Jennings was unable to pull in either of his two targets in Monday's 38-10 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The usually sure-handed Jennings had a rough go of things in Mexico City as he failed to record a catch for the first time this season. The 25-year-old logged his usual share of snaps (38 percent) while serving as San Francisco's third wideout. Jennings isn't much of a fantasy option in his limited role on offense, but he should produce better numbers than Monday's dud when the 49ers take on the Saints on Sunday.

  • Gains 40 yards in return

    Jennings (hamstring) caught all four of his targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Jennings was able to get back on the field and resume his role as the No. 3 wideout after missing a game prior to last week's bye with a bum hamstring. The 25-year-old saw his usual allotment of snaps on offense (33 percent) and continued to serve as Jimmy Garoppolo's preferred target on third downs (two conversions Sunday). Jennings still doesn't provide enough volume in his current role to warrant fantasy consideration against the Cardinals next Monday.

  • Logs full practice Wednesday

    Jennings (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings was absent Week 8 due to a hamstring issue, then rested up during the 49ers' Week 9 bye before returning to full on-field work to kick off Week 10 prep. The same can be said for the team's No. 1 wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring), so the position group is back to full strength ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers. In seven appearances this season, Jennings has put together a 14-180-0 receiving line on 24 targets while working behind Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk.

  • Takes seat in Week 8

    Jennings (hamstring) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game at the Rams, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Jennings managed one limited session in practice during Week 8 prep, but it wasn't enough to play through his hamstring issue. The 49ers also are without top wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring) on Sunday, so Brandon Aiyuk will be joined in the lineup by some combination of Ray-Ray McCloud, Danny Gray, Willie Snead and Tay Martin at the position. Jennings will use a Week 9 bye to heal up for the team's next game Sunday, Nov. 13 against the Chargers.

  • Deemed questionable for Week 8

    The 49ers list Jennings (hamstring) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jennings didn't practice in any fashion Wednesday or Thursday, but the fact that he'll take a questionable tag into the weekend rather than being ruled out for Sunday's contest suggests that he may have demonstrated progress on some level at Friday's practice. If Jennings is able to overcome his hamstring injury and suit up Sunday, he'll be one of several 49ers pass catchers who will be tasked with replacing some of the vacated target volume that would have gone to No. 1 wideout Deebo Samuel…read more

  • Still not practicing

    Jennings (hamstring) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings was listed the same way Wednesday, but he at least was seen running on a side field in a helmet and uniform Thursday, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The 49ers' No. 1 wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring) also hasn't practiced this week, so the team's situation at the position bears watching to see if either player may suit up Sunday at the Rams.

  • Dealing with hamstring injury

    Jennings didn't practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Cam Inman of the San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Deebo Samuel (hamstring) also missed practice, leaving Brandon Aiyuk and Ray-Ray McCloud as San Francisco's top healthy wide receivers at the moment. Jennings has caught two or fewer passes in every game since Week 1, but he could see a bit more work if he plays and Samuel sits out Sunday's game against the Rams.

  • Garners three targets in loss

    Jennings caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Jennings continues to be Jimmy Garoppolo's go-to man on third down, with two of the receiver's three targets coming on the crucial down. The 25-year-old hasn't recorded more than two receptions since Week 1, so he's more valuable to the 49ers than he is to fantasy managers. That said, Jennings could see an extra target or two next Sunday if San Francisco is forced to play from behind against a high-powered Chiefs offense.

  • Looks explosive on two snags

    Jennings (ankle) hauled in both of his targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Jennings entered the game with a banged-up ankle but he showed no ill effects on two impressive catches, as he out-muscled the smaller DBs covering him. The 6-foot-3 wideout continues to show improvements as a receiver despite a low target share (3.4 per game). The stats are not there for fantasy utility, but Jennings could be a name to watch should either Deebo Samuel or Brandon Aiyuk miss time this season. As things stand, Jennings will continue to operate as San Francisco's No. 3 wideout…read more

  • All set to play

    Jennings (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Carolina.

    Analysis: Jennings figures to occupy his usual role as the No. 3 receiver, following three straight weeks playing less than half the snaps. He saw six targets in the season opener when the Niners fell behind in Chicago, but Jennings has been targeted only nine times in three subsequent games and has caught just four of those for 31 yards.

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Jennings (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jennings has notched back-to-back capped sessions since coach Kyle Shanahan told Josh Dubow of The Associated Press on Tuesday that the third-year pro was day-to-day due to an ankle issue. He'll have one last chance to jump up to all activity Friday, at which point the 49ers may give Jennings a designation for Sunday's game in Carolina. Operating as the 49ers' No. 3 wide receiver this season, he's gathered in eight of 15 targets for 93 yards and no touchdowns in four appearances.

    Analysis: After Monday's 24-9 win against the Rams, head coach Kyle Shanahan told Josh Dubow of The Associated Press on Tuesday that Jennings was day-to-day due to an ankle injury. Jennings has upheld that statement by getting in some practice reps to begin Week 5 prep, and he'll have two more sessions to get back to full activity before the 49ers potentially give him a game-day designation for Sunday's contest at Carolina. On the season, Jennings has been lightly utilized behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon…read more

  • Battling ankle injury

    Jennings is day-to-day after suffering an ankle injury in Monday's 24-9 win over the Rams, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Jennings played 18 of the 49ers' 49 snaps on offense (37 percent) in the Week 4 victory, turning his four targets into two catches for 22 yards. The team will return to the practice field Wednesday as they begin preparations for a matchup with the Panthers, but Jennings' status for that game looks uncertain. If he's sidelined this weekend, Ray-Ray McCloud would presumably be first in line to join Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk in three-receiver formations.

    Jennings had one reception (three targets) for five yards in Sunday's 11-10 loss to Denver.

    Analysis: Jennings logged 26 offensive snaps (46 percent) in his usual role as the 49ers' third wideout on the depth chart. The 25-year-old did convert the team's lone third-down conversion late in the fourth quarter, but it was an otherwise forgettable night from a fantasy perspective. Jennings and the 49ers will take on the Rams next Monday.

  • Quiet in win

    Jennings had one reception (two targets) for four yards in Sunday's 27-7 win over Seattle.

    Analysis: Jennings logged 35 offensive snaps (46 percent), good for third amongst all San Francisco wide receivers. While his stat line left much to be desired, the physical wideout made his presence felt in the run game. Starting quarterback Trey Lance (ankle) suffered a season-ending injury, but Jimmy Garoppolo was waiting in the wings, so the passing offense shouldn't suffer tremendously. That said, Jennings wasn't considered a fantasy option in standard formats prior to Lance's injury, so not much…read more

  • Leads team in receiving

    Jennings played 41 of 68 offensive snaps and caught four of six targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 19-10 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Jennings turned out to be the unexpected beneficiary of Elijah Mitchell's (knee) early departure, as Deebo Samuel was forced back to play his unnatural position of running back, effectively making Jennings and Brandon Aiyuk (67 of 68 offensive snaps and two catches for 40 yards) to take over as the 49ers' top two wideouts for the remainder of the contest. The big-framed wideout has improved at a rapid pace since he was selected in the seventh round of the 2020 Draft. Jennings already was lined…read more

  • Sticking with San Francisco

    Jennings signed his exclusive rights tender with the 49ers on Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings will return for his third season with San Francisco as he was ineligible to negotiate with outside teams this offseason. The 2020 seventh-round pick caught 24 passes for 282 yards and five touchdowns over 16 regular-season games last season after not seeing the field in his rookie season. Jennings also accounted for 51 rushing yards on 13 carries last season and should slot in as the 49ers' No. 3 wideout in 2022 barring any changes to the position group.

  • Best game of professional career

    Jennings had six receptions (seven targets) for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Jennings saved his best game for the regular-season finale, as his two-touchdown performance helped propel the 49ers to an upset victory than landed his team in the playoffs. The 23-year-old hadn't topped three receptions, 46 yards or one touchdown in any of his previous 15 appearances this season, but he crushed each of those categories in one fell swoop against the Rams. Jennings has shown soft hands to complement his large frame (6-foot-3, 212 pounds), but it would be surprising if he…read more

  • Has two receptions in win

    Jennings caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 23-7 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Jennings saw his usual allotment of offensive snaps (48 percent) as the 49ers' No. 3 wideout, finishing with two receptions for the second week in a row. The 23-year-old didn't see his role on offense change much with rookie Trey Lance under center, so there isn't much to report here from a fantasy perspective. San Francisco escaped this matchup relatively healthy, leaving Jennings off the radar as an asset heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Rams.

  • Logs 27 offensive snaps

    Jennings caught two of five targets for 19 yards in Thursday's 20-17 loss to Tennessee.

    Analysis: Jennings saw his usual allotment of offensive snaps (46 percent), but was unable to replicate last week's trip to the end zone. The 23-year-old would have finished with three receptions for the third straight game if he didn't drop a pass that hit him right in the hands during a crucial stalled drive in the fourth quarter. Jennings has settled into a low-usage role as the 49ers' No. 3 wideout heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Texans.

  • Hits pay dirt in victory

    Jennings had three receptions (on six targets) for 28 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: The 49ers' No. 3 wideout logged his usual amount of offensive snaps (44 percent), but he was able to use his large frame (6-foot-3) on a quick slant route for a four-yard touchdown to bolster his fantasy day. Jennings has now scored two touchdowns over his last four contests, with both not coincidentally coming in the only two games where he saw red-zone targets.

  • Plays 65 percent of snaps

    Jennings corralled three of five targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Jennings saw some extended run in the receiver rotation with Deebo Samuel filling in at running back (8-37-1) for the injured Elijah Mitchell (concussion/knee). This resulted in the 25-year-old experiencing new season highs in receptions, targets, yards and offensive snaps (45) in one fell swoop. Mitchell's status for next Sunday's matchup against Atlanta still is unclear, but Jennings requires at least one of San Francisco's top playmakers to be absent for him to carry any value in deeper…read more

  • Sticks in No. 3 role

    Jennings logged 29 offensive snaps (50 percent) while catching his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Trent Sherfield (two receptions for 16 yards) took over Deebo Samuel's (groin) spot in the starting lineup, which kept Jennings in the slot role for the time being. When Samuel returns -- he could be back as soon as this Sunday -- it will be interesting to see whether Jennings will retain his spot at third on the receiver depth chart, or if Sherfield has permanently leapfrogged him.

  • Role continues to grow

    Jennings had two receptions on three targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-26 win over Minnesota.

    Analysis: Jennings continued to see a gradual increase in usage while serving as the 49ers' No. 3 wideout, experiencing new highs in targets and receiving yardage. The 23-year-old even appeared to catch a second touchdown, but it was reviewed and overturned when the wideout's knee barely grazed the white sideline paint in the end zone. Jennings may continue to see his usage increase with Deebo Samuel's (groin) status unclear for next week's matchup against the Seahawks. It is worth mentioning that fellow…read more

  • One catch in win

    Jennings caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Jennings continued serving as the 49ers' third wideout in place of the injured Mohamed Sanu (knee), logging 33 offensive snaps (48 percent) in a comfortable win. The increased playing time hasn't resulted in a larger role in the passing game, as the 24-year-old has just two receptions for seven yards on three targets in the two games since taking over the slot role. We should expect more of the same from Jennings against the Vikings next Sunday.

  • Takes over as No. 3 WR

    Jennings logged 32 offensive snaps (47 percent) Monday, finishing with one reception (two targets) for three yards in a 31-10 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Mohamed Sanu (knee) was placed on injured reserve this week, so Jennings assumed the veteran's role as the team's third wideout. The 23-year-old only saw two targets despite being on the field for nearly half of the team's offensive snaps, so there isn't much to report here from a fantasy perspective in the 49ers' current configuration.

  • Scores first career touchdown

    Jennings caught both of his targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-11 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: Jennings ran a levels concept with tight end George Kittle, taking the under route and benefitting from the defense drifting towards his teammate as the wideout took the ball to the house. While this was a big day for the 24-year-old, keep in mind that he logged just six offensive snaps, so he is unlikely to find the end zone very often with the current depth chart configuration.

  • Off injury report

    Jennings (heel) isn't listed on the 49ers' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Jennings played well in the 49ers' exhibition opener, but an injury suffered in preseason Week 2 could have derailed the receiver's chances of making the 49ers. The 24-year-old ended up a member of the regular-season roster and no longer is on the injury report, so he could see minimal snaps in Sunday's season opener, if active.

  • Expected to play Sunday

    Jennings (heel) participated in Friday's walk-through practice and is expected to play in the preseason finale Sunday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jennings had a strong showing in the preseason opener, totaling three touches for 49 yards, but he was unable to maintain that momentum as a heel injury sidelined him for Week 2 of preseason. The extra work will be vital for the 24-year-old as he competes for a roster spot with Travis Benjamin and Trent Sherfield.

  • Practices in limited capacity

    Jennings (heel) was limited to side work during Thursday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: jennings appears to be progressing towards being available for the 49ers' final preseason game against the Raiders on Sunday. The 2020 seventh-round pick was forced to miss last week's contest after an impressive performance during Week 1 of the preseason. He spent parts of his rookie season on the practice squad and was vying for a spot on the regular-season roster before his injury.

  • Sitting with heel injury

    Jennings won't play in Sunday's preseason game at the Chargers due to a heel injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A 2020 seventh-round pick of the 49ers, Jennings spent parts of his rookie season on the team's practice squad. After a stay on the reserve/COVID-19 list during training camp this summer, he impressed in preseason Week 1 with three touches for 49 yards from scrimmage on 38 offensive snaps. Now, a different health concern is threatening his availability, which in turn could set him back in his case for a spot on the regular-season roster.

  • Making case for roster spot

    Jennings' strong showing in the preseason opener (three touches for 49 yards) has put him in position to compete for a roster spot, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: While Trent Sherfield stole the show with an 80-yard touchdown reception, it was Jennings who was the first backup to enter the game against the Chiefs on Saturday, also finishing with a position-high 38 offensive snaps. The team clearly wanted to get a look at the 24-year-old, and his success on the field puts him in the mix to compete for a backup job behind what looks to be a settled starting trio of Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Mohamed Sanu.

    The 49ers placed Jennings (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jennings appears to have recovered from the serious hamstring issue he sustained last October, but he'll now need to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before practicing in training camp. He's likely competing for a spot on San Francisco's practice squad.

Despite Shanahan's pessimism in the short term, the head coach was hopeful that Jennings will practice and possibly play in a game by the end of the season.

  • Battling hamstring injury

    Coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Wednesday that Jennings remains on the practice squad injured reserve list with a hamstring injury, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Shanahan explained that Jennings would have been called up to the active roster to fill the void at wide receiver if it wasn't for this injury. Jennings will aim to return in about three weeks, and this same opportunity could be available at that time. The rookie seventh-round pick out of Tennessee produced a 59-969-8 line in his final collegiate season.

  • Dealing with injury

    The 49ers placed Jennings (undisclosed) on the practice squad injured reserve list Sunday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but his absence from practice is a hit to the receiving depth of the 49ers. The 2020 seventh-round pick has resided on the practice squad for the entire season to this point.

  • Sticks on practice squad

    Jennings has been selected to the 49ers' practice squad, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Jennings had a poor combine (4.72 40-yard dash) but turned in a strong camp by drawing praise for his polished route running for his 6-foot-3 frame. The 49ers have a young receiving corps that is already dealing with injuries, so the seventh-round draft pick may find himself getting the call at some point this season.

    Analysis: Jennings was selected in the seventh round by the 49ers in April after he logged a poor combine. The Tennessee product failed to earn a depth roster spot in the Bay Area, but will look to earn one elsewhere or land on a team's practice squad.
