The San Francisco 49ers enter training camp with significant concerns at the wide receiver position, as their struggles from the previous season continue to loom large. Brandon Aiyuk's participation is uncertain due to a lingering injury, while Deebo Samuel's performance remains inconsistent. The team is heavily relying on Jauan Jennings to step up as a top target, particularly in Aiyuk's absence.

Ricky Pearsall, fresh off recovery from a gunshot wound, needs to prove his durability, while the addition of veteran Demarcus Robinson aims to bolster their receiving corps. With rookies like Jacob Cowing and Jordan Watkins looking to earn snaps, the 49ers must use the preseason to establish a reliable receiving unit. Meanwhile, Russell Gage's comeback adds another layer of intrigue as the team navigates through injuries and expectations.
