I like it but wish they would give him a longer contract. Though I do get it, It's much cheaper to just give him the 1 year tender since he is a 7th RD draft pick.

He is going to make too much money next year. He will be missed.

WI'll be interesting to see how they approach this. Do you grab a similar receiver in hopes they develop? Will be interesting to see how the league views him. If they see his ceiling as a number 3, we can resign him. But the Patriots gave Kendrick Bourne a big contract so you never know.

So VERY glad he'll be here next season.

Yeah buoooy!!!

Agree, especially because i see JJ making it with improved play this yr. I bet by end of this season the F O is going to wish they had extended him 3 yrs. He was greatly improved this yr over last and his play last yr was very good…he was just a bit green. This yr he was sure handed on 3rd down. The other thing is opponents D is covering McC, Deebo, Kittle, and JJ frequently gets overlooked . That's when he is money on 3rd down. By end of this season, Ds will not be able to ignore him.

I'd really have liked us to resign him for 3 yrs. We'll see , however.

I was hoping we sign him for 3 years.. and if we somehow doubt that we can affor him next year.. then I'll draft (WR) Jesse Matthews somewhere in the 4th or 5th round...

This guy's a solid security blanket. I would like to see RayRay split his reps more because of the home run threat with him, deebo, and aiyuik at the same time.

I can see a situation where purdys third read is an outlet screen to ray ray that goes for a huge gain where if it were Jennings it would just be first down.

He's definitely gotten better every year.

I love his YAK and toughness.

He's great in Madden, better than Deebo at the long ball.

Bruh how many times have seen a 3rd read be a screen pass? Jennings is one the field more than Ray Ray for a reason. JJ has made several cluthc third down cathces and has earned his time.
