Despite Deebo Samuel arriving at 49ers minicamp, Trey Lance has not had the chance to work on his rapport with San Francisco’s top receiver. However, Lance has had ample opportunity to build a promising connection with a less-heralded receiver in Jauan Jennings, whose development could prove critical to the quarterback’s hopes of efficiently adapting to life as a full-time NFL starter.
Jennings, a seventh-round pick in the 2020 draft, emerged down the stretch last season as San Francisco surged to a 10-7 record with a run that took them to the NFC Championship Game.
