To say that the San Francisco 49ers are thin at the wide receiver position would be a bit of an understatement.
Not only are they missing Brandon Aiyuk, who is on the PUP as he continues to rehab his ACL/MCL injury suffered last season, but Jacob Cowing has a hamstring injury, and Jauan Jennings is now nursing a calf injury as he looks for a new contract.
It's why journeyman like Equanimeous St. Brown and Quintez Cephus have been signed in the last few days, although the latter has already been released to make room for Eli Apple, who is coming in to fill a hole at cornerback, another position that feels paper-thin in San Francisco.
