Overview

  • Jennings formally asked the 49ers for a contract extension or to be traded by the league’s camp reporting deadline.
  • He enters the final year of a two-year, $15.39 million extension that carries a $4.258 million cap hit in 2025.
  • The 28-year-old wide receiver used his career highs of 77 receptions, 975 yards and six touchdowns last season as leverage.
  • San Francisco’s offseason extensions for Brock Purdy, George Kittle and Fred Warner have significantly squeezed its available salary cap.
  • Several teams have already inquired about Jennings’ availability, though the 49ers say they hope to keep him if a new deal can be struck.
