SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- As the San Francisco 49ers continue working on trying to sign receiver Brandon Aiyuk to a long-term contract extension, they handled another important piece of wideout-related business on Wednesday.
Restricted free agent Jauan Jennings, who has emerged as the team's reliable third receiver option over the past three seasons, agreed to a two-year contract with the Niners that will keep him in San Francisco through the 2025 season.
Jennings did not sign his restricted free agent tender and instead did this deal, which is akin to a one-year extension.
