The deal is worth $8 million. If Jennings hits all of his incentives, he\u2019ll have an opportunity to earn up to $13 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jennings has earned over $18.5 million in his career. He\u2019s been living on one-year deals for the majority of his career. The most recent deal Jennings signed netted him nearly $12 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jennings turns 29 in July. The former seventh-round pick couldn\u2019t have landed in a better spot. He\u2019ll play alongside Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Surrounding Jennings with speed was always when he was at his best. He\u2019ll play in an offense that will ask him to do a lot of the things he did under Kyle Shanahan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The playing time should be there. Depending on how reasonable the incentives are, Jennings should reach them \u2014 unless he gets ejected in the final game of the regular season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Seventh-rounders aren\u2019t supposed to last more than a contract. So kudos to Jennings not only for carving out a role but also for making a name for himself in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jennings will finish his 49ers tenure with 210 receptions, 2,581 receiving yards, and 22 touchdowns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings signed a one-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings.
