Jauan Jennings is savoring his new surroundings ahead of Year 7. The pacey wide receiver signaled the end of his six-year stint with the San Francisco 49ers as he signed a one-year, $13 million contract to join the Minnesota Vikings.<\/p>\n
A reporter caught up with Jennings on Thursday and asked about his time in Minnesota.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n \nThanks for the submission!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/template><\/p>\n “It’s awesome! I feel like Kevin Durant with the Warriors,” Jennings said about his fit.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n \u2022 <\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/template><\/p>\n “Big 3, man. You know what I’m saying?

Bro really said “Big 3″ while standing next to JJ McCarthy and Kyler Murray?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n One chipped in, saying<\/a>, “Hold up\u2026 am I tripping or did Jauan Jennings really just compare himself to Kevin Durant? This can\u2019t be real.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Some weren’t as critical.<\/p>\n One said<\/a>, “Jennings is more Harrison Barnes than KD but I get it. When you’re lining up behind Justin Jefferson every week, the coverage isn’t coming your way. That’s real value, even if the comparison is a stretch.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Another wrote<\/a>, “Awesome for JJ15 – best of luck in MN. See ya Wk 11.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n One chimed in, saying<\/a>, “Big 3 vibes already Jauan fitting right in with JJ & the crew. Let\u2019s see that chemistry pop this season!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Jauan Jennings<\/a> is buzzing ahead of the new season. However, his comparison to two-time NBA champion Kevin Durant<\/a> seemed to ruffle some feathers.<\/p>\n According to Celebrity Net Worth, Durant is worth $400,000,000. The perennial basketball all-star and future Hall of Famer is widely considered one of the greatest players of all-time. Jennings was referencing the time when Durant joined the Golden State Warriors.<\/p>\n Durant left the Oklahoma City Thunder to form a Big 3 alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thompson<\/a> in Golden State. The trio dominated the league for a few more seasons before Durant left for the Brooklyn Nets.<\/p>\n Jauan Jennings<\/a> tested free agency just one season removed from his career year with the San Francisco 49ers. The former seventh-round pick amassed a stat line of 77 catches, 975 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 15 games during the 2024 season.<\/p>\n According to ESPN, Jennings<\/a> signed a one-year deal worth up to $13 million on May 7. His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, negotiated the deal.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
