In February, the San Francisco 49ers tendered a one-year contract to exclusive rights free agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings. According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, the 25-year-old player signed his one-year tender today as the team reports to Santa Clara for the start of its offseason program.
WR Jauan Jennings hadn't been listed on the #49ers' recent roster because he hadn't yet signed his one-year ERFA tender. He signed it today, indicating that he'll be part of the team's offseason program, which begins today.

Jennings has caught 59 passes for 698 yards and six touchdowns in 32 game appearances (five starts) through his two NFL seasons.
