Jauan Jennings signed an $8 million base contract with incentives to join a new receiving corps featuring stars Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Though projected as the WR3, Jennings’ physical frame and run-blocking ability allows him to challenge Addison for snaps in two-receiver sets and absolutely buries Tai Felton on the depth chart.
To be clear, the Minnesota landing spot dampens Jennings’ best ball and dynasty stock. Currently valued as a WR4/FLEX in all formats, the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that Jordan Addison remains the Vikings’ No. 2 wide receiver. While Jennings trails Jefferson and Addison in most fantasy rankings, he offers contingent upside if he can earn an expanded role.
