49ers' quiet win over Jauan Jennings contract keeps getting louder each week

Jauan Jennings understandably wanted to cash in on a career-best year in 2024, one in which he led all San Francisco 49ers wide receivers with 975 receiving yards. But, after going through all kinds of tumult with their previous two wideouts demanding extensions, Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, the Niners rebuffed Jennings' request for either a lucrative extension or a trade.

Instead, both parties settled on a negotiated contract with incentive-based bonuses, one that'd still make Jennings a free agent in 2026.

San Francisco's decision not to cave is looking more and more brilliant each week.
