BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings took on a larger role in Week 3 with Deebo Samuel Sr. sidelined by a calf injury and delivered impressive results. In the loss to the Rams, Jennings was targeted 12 times, catching 11 passes for 175 yards and three touchdowns.
This isn't necessarily something that will continue indefinitely. In addition to the Samuel injury, the absence of tight end George Kittle helped Jennings out as well. Once Samuel is back, Jennings will likely go back to playing more of a reserve role behind him and Brandon Aiyuk.
Jauan Jennings becomes the first 49ers WR since Jerry Rice in 1995 with 10+ catches, 150+ yards and 3 TD catches in a single game

But if you need a startable fantasy option for the next game or two, Jennings is a must-add player. The team has juicy matchups against the Patriots and Cardinals coming up, so if Samuel is out for one or both of those games, then Jennings should deliver more strong results. Not three touchdowns, but still a WR3/4 option.
