San Francisco settled on an incentives-heavy path for Jauan Jennings, lifting his earnings potential this season from 7.5 million to up to 10.5 million while keeping the base salary manageable. The deal leans into benchmarks Jennings can hit, rewarding a second straight big year without locking SF into a high-cost, long-term commitment. Jennings, who missed camp with a calf issue but returned to practice, profiles as Seattle-ready target who could again lead the 49ers’ receiving corps if health holds.

Incentives provide a bridge between Jennings’ value and SF’s cap strategy, a middle ground after months of public contract drama. With Jennings already a versatile blocker and pass-catcher in an expanded role, fantasy managers should monitor week-to-week targets and health updates as he works to reassert himself as SF’s top option and pave the way for a likely free-agent market surge next spring.

Jauan Jennings and the 49ers ended his holdout with a deal that adds 3 million in playtime incentives, boosting his potential pay to 10.5 million this season. The structure centers on minutes and snaps, not just yards, signaling continued trust in his versatile role within SF’s offense.

From a fantasy lens, Jennings gains upside if he earns more field time behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, while remaining shielded by health and game plan. The incentives hint at a path to bigger weekly outputs, but his floor remains tied to opportunity and SF’s overall offensive balance.

Seattle's Week 1 build is thinning at wide receiver. Bobo is sidelined by concussion, Tory Horton ankle, Cody White shoulder, and Dareke Young hamstring, with Horton practicing fully later in the week. Uchenna Nwosu is ramping up but not yet ready. Seattle has just six WR on the active roster, leaving depth questions for the 49ers defense. Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp are noted as the players not on the initial injury report.

The Seahawks could lean on practice-squad options Ricky White III, Courtney Jackson, and Tyrone Broden if needed. Tyrice Knight’s knee absence is notable but he looks set to play, a big boost for the defense. Injury updates roll out Thursday and Friday ahead of Sunday’s 1:05 p.m. kickoff at Lumen Field.
