San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch confirmed two things during a news conference Wednesday.

He confirmed that wide receiver Jauan Jennings, coming off a breakout 2024 season, requested a trade “awhile ago.” He also confirmed the 49ers don’t intend to honor that request.

“He asked for it, and we’ve moved on,” Lynch said. “We’re not doing that, so we’re moving forward.”

While the Niners limped to a 6-11 record last season and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2020, Jennings emerged as a playmaker. He racked up receiving 975 yards — more than the 963 he had in 2021-23 combined — and six touchdowns. Both ranked second on the Niners to tight end George Kittle.

With Deebo Samuel Sr. now in Washington, those opportunities should again be there for Jennings this season.
