The 49ers are entering this year with relatively low expectations after a 2024 season in which they missed the playoffs altogether on the heels of the previous year&#8217;s Super Bowl appearance.<\/p>\n<p>A big reason why the 49ers performed well below expectations in 2024 was the fact that they were dealt several tough injuries, including to star wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and future Hall of Fame running back Christian McCaffrey. The 49ers are certainly hoping that the same thing doesn&#8217;t happen this year, and on Wednesday, they got a positive injury update on one of their other key wide receivers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(49ers head coach Kyle) Shanahan said Jauan Jennings (calf) will be limited at practice today but will play Sunday. Everyone\u2019s excited that he\u2019s back,\u201d reported Vic Tafur of The Athletic on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>Jennings is another key downfield target for newly re-signed quarterback Brock Purdy, and together with Aiyuk and George Kittle forms a solid wide receiving trio.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Can the 49ers bounce back?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3503640\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3503640\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg?resize=300,168 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg?resize=768,431 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg?resize=1024,574 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Jauan-Jennings.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"49ers' Kyle Shanahan confirms Jauan Jennings' Week 1 status vs. Seahawks\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3503640\">Mark J.
