Jauan Jennings will remain with the Vikings for now. The Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers had reportedly agreed on the terms of a trade for the receiver. The deal did not go through, however, because Jennings apparently preferred to stay with his current team. Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported the news.

Trade depended on conversation with Shanahan and Lynch

According to Glazer, the agreement between the two teams was contingent on one condition: Jennings was supposed to take part in a FaceTime conversation with 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch. Apparently, that conversation did not take place in the way required to finalize the trade.

According to the report, Jauan Jennings chose to stay in Minnesota instead. The 29-year-old spent the first six seasons of his NFL career in San Francisco. The 49ers selected him in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Jennings developed into a productive target in San Francisco’s offense. In 2024, he set a career high with 975 receiving yards. He had 643 yards in 2025. Last offseason, Jennings signed a one-year, $8 million contract with the Vikings.

Vikings unbeaten, Jauan Jennings in limited role

While Minnesota is the NFL’s only unbeaten team at 6-0, Jennings has made only a limited impact so far. He has caught four passes for 43 yards.

The 49ers, meanwhile, are 6-1 but have had to deal with several absences among their receivers. Mike Evans is hampered by an Achilles injury. Deebo Samuel missed time with a hamstring injury.

Rookie De’Zhaun Stribling is also unavailable to the 49ers after undergoing ankle surgery. The procedure took place after the first week of the season. San Francisco’s personnel issues at receiver explain the team’s attempt to bring Jennings back, but apparently did not change his decision to stay in Minnesota.

The trade therefore fell through not because of negotiations between the teams, but because Jennings wanted to stay with the Vikings.
