Jauan Jennings should make 49ers 53-man roster in 2020

Jauan Jennings is the newest wide receiver addition for the San Francisco 49ers.

Having been selected with the Niners’ final pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, there’s no easy guarantee the former Tennessee wideout make the regular-season roster. Jennings won’t be afforded the same luxuries and chances given to rookie prospects selected much earlier, such as San Francisco’s first-round pick, Arizona State’s Brandon Aiyuk.

Jennings falling to San Francisco is a steal in of itself, honestly. Before his terribly slow 4.72 40-yard time at the NFL Scouting Combine, Jennings was likely viewed as a fourth- or fifth-round draft pick.
