BALLER MOVE: Bench in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Starting Jauan Jennings this week carries substantial risk as he returns from a two-game absence due to a hip injury.
Although many fantasy managers were quick to pick him up off waivers after Brandon Aiyuk’s season-ending injury, it’s uncertain how heavily the 49ers will involve Jennings in his first game back.
The matchup against the Buccaneers might not necessitate a high-volume passing attack, as Christian McCaffrey’s return should anchor the offense, allowing the 49ers to lean on their run game rather than force the ball through the air. Jennings may see limited targets, which could cap his fantasy upside this week.

With Jennings likely working his way back to full speed and the 49ers having ample playmaking options, he can be viewed as a low-end WR4 option for this week.
Jennings is best suited as a last-resort play, especially if your team desperately needs a receiver due to bye weeks or injuries. While he has the potential to produce solid numbers in the future, this game is likely not the one to count on him heavily.
If the 49ers establish a strong ground game early, Jennings could be left with limited opportunities to make a meaningful impact in fantasy lineups. Jennings can be viewed as a WR4 this week with WR3 upside.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) has easily been one of the worst fantasy football draft picks of 2024.
