49ers' Jennings talks contract resolution, calf
"After returning to the practice field Monday and participating in Wednesday and Thursday sessions, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings spoke publicly for the first time about an eventful summer that included a calf injury and a contract impasse. The 49ers and Jennings reached agreement Wednesday night on a slight modification to his contract that includes the opportunity to earn $3 million in additional play-time incentives in 2025."
"Asked Thursday whether he was happy with that outcome despite not getting the lucrative, long-term deal he sought, Jennings seemed content. "Oh yeah, I love money," Jennings said. "You love money? I love money." Of course, Jennings will have to reach certain benchmarks in order to receive that money with the possibility of raising his take-home pay for 2025 from $7.5 million to $10.5 million."
