49ers Stand By Jauan Jennings After Browns' Complaints About Trash Talk

San Francisco's leadership describes the receiver as aggressive within the rules.

Overview

  • The dispute centers on words Jennings allegedly said during an injury timeout after Browns defensive tackle Maliek Collins suffered a season-ending quad injury.
  • Browns defenders, including Shelby Harris and Myles Garrett, publicly criticized Jennings for demeaning comments directed at their players.
  • Head coach Kyle Shanahan said he spoke with Jennings and praised him for playing to the whistle and provoking opponents without breaking rules.
  • General manager John Lynch told KNBR he does not believe Jennings crosses the line with his words and said the precise remarks have not been confirmed.
  • The specific comments have not been independently verified and no NFL discipline has been announced for the Week 13 exchange, following a separate Week 12 incident that led to a one-game suspension for Panthers safety Tre'von Moehrig.
