San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings did not get long-term job security with a new tweak to his current contract, but he did get his bag.
On Sept. 3, Jennings and the 49ers agreed to terms on a deal that could pay the wideout up to $3 million in play-time incentives, per multiple reports. Last year's leading wide receiver in San Francisco is still set to become a free agent after this season, but he's in line to make $3 million more in 2025 than he was previously due.
Jennings, 28, had a massive breakout last year, five years after beginning his career on the 49ers' practice squad in 2020. A season-ending injury to 49ers' lead wideout Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel's battle with pneumonia gave Jennings a chance to shine in the passing offense.

He took full advantage of the opportunity, finishing the 2024 season leading all 49ers wide receivers with his 77 catches, 975 yards and six touchdowns. All of those marks also set new career highs for the former Tennessee Volunteer and opened up the door to receiving a pay bump ahead of 2025.

Entering this season, Jennings is set to make up to $10.5 million if he remains healthy throughout the year. It's a significant raise from the $7.5 million he was originally due.
Jennings will still hit free agency after the 2025 season, as his new agreement with the 49ers did not include any extension of his current contract.
