Should You Cut Jauan Jennings?
From Weeks 2-5, Jennings was on the field for 63.5% of San Francisco’s offensive snaps, and being on the field regularly is the best way to take advantage of a highly efficient offense like this one.
He showed well for himself when given the opportunity, but his stock is fading quickly with the 49ers now healthy. Against the Seahawks last week, Jennings was on the field for just 49.2% of snaps, a rate that is more likely to regress further than bounce back.
Jennings is to be used like a handcuff receiver — stash him and deploy him if he rises up the depth chart, but ignore him otherwise. He’s a nice player to have on your bench right now, but not in your starting lineup.
