Jauan Jennings Injury Update: Should Fantasy Managers Be Concerned About 49ers WR for Week 10 Fantasy Football?
What Happened to Jauan Jennings
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings suffered an ankle injury during the team's Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The injury occurred in the first quarter of the game when Jennings was tackled awkwardly while attempting to make a catch. He was immediately helped off the field and did not return to the game.Jennings' Injury Severity and Timeline for Return
The 49ers have not yet released an official diagnosis of Jennings' injury, but early reports indicate that it is a high-ankle sprain. High-ankle sprains typically take several weeks to heal, so it is likely that Jennings will miss at least a few games. The 49ers have a bye in Week 10, so Jennings will have an extra week to recover before the team's next game in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs.Fantasy Football Impact
Jennings has been a solid fantasy contributor for the 49ers this season, averaging over 50 receiving yards per game. His absence will be a blow to the 49ers' passing attack, and it could also have a negative impact on Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk in fantasy football.If Jennings is unable to play in Week 10, fantasy managers should consider benching him and looking for other options at wide receiver. Some potential replacements for Jennings include:
- Dante Pettis
- Trent Sherfield
- Jauan Jennings
