San Francisco 49ers\u00a0free agent Jauan Jennings\u2019 market is starting to\u00a0heat\u00a0up now that the 2026 NFL Draft is over. Any team that didn\u2019t draft an impact receiver on Day 1 or Day 2 could be looking at the veteran as an option to bolster their group.<\/p>\n

On April 28, \u00a0ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter reported, citing a source, that Jennings was visiting the\u00a0Minnesota Vikings\u00a0on April 28 and 29. Nonetheless, the wideout left Minnesota without a contract\u00a0and\u00a0so it appears he\u2019s looking at all his options.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

PFF\u2019s Bradley Locker sees the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders\u00a0as a landing spot for Jennings, given that the Silver and Black could use another wideout and is familiar with new head coach Klint Kubiak, who was the 49ers\u2019 offensive passing game specialist during the 2023 season.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven after adding the aforementioned Nailor, the Raiders need to continue to find ammunition for first overall pick Fernando Mendoza as well as possible starter\u00a0Kirk Cousins,\u201d\u00a0Locker wrote in his April 30 article. \u201cJennings would fit the bill.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cJennings turned in a disappointing 2025 season, producing a 68.9 PFF receiving grade with only 1.35 yards per route run. However, much of that was rooted in an uncharacteristically high 7.9% drop rate, and memory of his outstanding 2024 (83.7 receiving mark)\u00a0isn\u2019t forgotten.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Raiders still need an explosive perimeter option next to Nailor, and the 28-year-old Jennings \u2014 having played 70.1% of his snaps out wide last year \u2014 makes sense. The match in Las Vegas is even clearer considering new head coach Klint Kubiak guided Jennings in San Francisco in 2023 when he was still a well-kept secret.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
\"49ers<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What Would the 49ers Free Agent Bring to the Raiders?<\/h2>\n

Last season with the 49ers,\u00a0Jennings posted a 68.3 overall PFF grade, ranking 48th among 81 qualifying wide receivers. His 70.6 receiving grade checked in at No. 42 on that same list.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jennings finished with 55 catches on 88 targets for 643 yards and nine touchdowns, averaging 11.7 yards per reception. He added 180 yards after the catch and\u00a0was credited\u00a0with three drops over the course of the season.<\/p>\n

Vikings Insider on Jauan Jennings\u2019 Visit<\/h2>\n

With Jennings\u2019 visit with the Vikings having come and gone without signing a contract, at least for now, Alec Lewis of The Athletic shared details on what was likely happening during the wide receiver\u2019s time in the facilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat visit was always kind of an exploratory type of feel,\u201d\u00a0Lewis said on the April 30 edition of \u201cThe Alec Lewis Show.\u201d\u00a0\u201cIt\u00a0was never billed\u00a0as \u2018Jauan Jennings is coming here, it\u2019s signing, done deal, over with and done for. \u2018\u00a0It was always more of a, \u2018Hey, you\u00a0come\u00a0meet us.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to spend time with you, see where you\u2019re at, talk through everything, fit, role, what we\u2019re about, what this building is about, and then, obviously, some of the financial ideas with where both sides stand.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moreover, Lewis shared that there\u2019s still a possibility that Minnesota and Jennings reach a contract agreement in the future, even after he left the Vikings\u2019 facilities without signing one.<\/p>\n

\n
\"49ers'<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cJust because Jauan Jennings was visiting, it was never like, \u2018If this doesn\u2019t happen, if he walks out of the building by Wednesday, what are we doing? The sky is falling. Do the Vikings even know what\u2019s happening?\u2018\u201d\u00a0Lewis added. \u201cNot at all. That\u2019s not, I think, any expectation that that\u2019s what this was about, just probably doesn\u2019t hit the mark.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
