Report: Jauan Jennings is expected to report to training camp next week
Jennings is scheduled to make $7.5 million this season in the final year of a two-year extension he signed in 2024 as the team's No. 3 receiver behind Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel. Jennings, though, led the 49ers' receivers with a career-high 77 catches, 975 yards and six touchdowns.
Samuel now is with the Commanders, and Samuel is working his way back from an ACL and MCL tear in his knee last October. Demarcus Robinson, a free agent signee, faces a potential three-game suspension after pleading no contest last week to a misdemeanor DUI charge.
Ricky Pearsall, a first-round pick in 2024, Jacob Cowing and rookie Jordan Watkins are other receivers on the roster.
Aiyuk didn't hold out of camp last year as he sought a new contract, but instead held in, not participating in practice. He signed a four-year, $120 million extension, with $76 million in guarantees, on Aug. 29.

Mets' young trio provides necessary spark in another win over Angels
Access the Mets beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Mike Puma about the inside buzz on the Mets. Try it free In 2022, MLB Pipeline tabbed the Mets' three best prospects as Francisco Alvarez, Brett Baty and Ronny Mauricio, who along with Mark Vientos broke into the majors around the same time. Francisco Lindor coined the group the 'Baby Mets.' A few years later — after demotions, inconsistencies, injuries and flashes — they sure look grown up. Advertisement Bottles gone and bats looking ready to break out, the Mets' young trio were at the center of their one big, three-run inning that became the only offense they needed in a 3-2 victory over the Angels in front of a sellout crowd of 43,055 at Citi Field on Tuesday. The Mets (58-44) have won three straight after losing three straight and claimed the series before Wednesday's finale. 4 Francisco Alvarez celebrates after hitting a two-run home run in the fifth inning of the Mets' 3-2 home win over the Angels on July 22, 2025. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST Advertisement Frankie Montas was decent in letting up two runs in 5 ²/₃ innings — though recording 17 outs nearly qualifies as a marathon for this Mets rotation. Three relievers — highlighted by excellence from once-again-Met Rico Garcia and clutch work from Ryne Stanek, who induced a game-ending pop-out from Mike Trout with the potential tying run on second — were better in covering 3 ¹/₃ scoreless innings. Best for the Mets was the group of friends who have overcome a well-publicized option (in Alvarez's case), a roller-coaster ride that has included plenty of frustrations (in Baty's case) and a torn ACL (in Mauricio's case). 4 Ronny Mauricio reacts after he hits a single in the fifth inning. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Advertisement 4 Brett Baty smiles after recording an out in the eighth inning of the Mets' win over the Angels. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST The Mets entered the fifth inning down two runs before the trio went to work. With two outs, Baty — looking more comfortable by the day and who received a vote of confidence from David Stearns on Monday — slugged a double that reached the wall in right-center. Alvarez — summoned Monday after a torrid stretch at Triple-A Syracuse — continued looking like the Alvarez of old in working a deep at-bat before getting a seventh-pitch fastball that was thrown down the middle. Alvarez hammered it over the left-field wall for a two-run homer that tied the game. As if the might were not evident enough, Alvarez flexed his right bicep as he came around third base. Advertisement CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND METS STATS Mauricio — whose progress also was highlighted by Stearns — then stroked a single and easily stole second base. A two-out hit from Brandon Nimmo drove in what became the game-winning run. A day after coming back from a four-run hole, the Mets completed another comeback because their bullpen was untouched. 4 Frankie Montas reacts as he walks back to the dugout after he is pulled from the game by Carlos Mendoza in the sixth inning of the Mets' win over the Angels. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Garcia — who had been DFA'd by the Mets on July 11, signed with the Yankees July 14, pitched with the Yankees on Friday, was DFA'd by the Yankees on Saturday and was reclaimed by the Mets on Monday — recorded three large outs, including a strikeout of Trout. Reed Garrett followed without allowing a run and Stanek recorded his third save of the season, Edwin Díaz unavailable on what would have been a third straight day of work.

PFF says Rod Moore's return at safety will strengthen Michigan's defense in 2025 season
Something just wasn't right for the first two-thirds of the season for the Michigan football defense in 2024. There were lapses made, big passing plays, and while the defense would stand tall for two downs, it allowed drives to be extended by the better offenses they faced. To some degree, PFF thinks that the Wolverines have what they need to keep that from happening again in 2025. The reason that analyst Dalton Wasserman gave on the Michigan preview on the PFF college football podcast wasn't just more familiarity to the college game for defensive coordinator Wink Martindale or the bevy of players expected to rotate up front. No, it's a returning player in Rod Moore, who missed all of last season due to tearing his ACL in spring ball. "I'm excited to see him back, too, to free safety," Wasserman said. "I think this year (he's) gonna be the glue that holds the secondary together. He missed last year because he tore his ACL in the spring. But the two previous years, per PFF's wins above average metric, he was the second most valuable safety in college football six interceptions over those two years big part of their national championship-winning team in 2023. Just to see him back on the field, because I think Michigan, last year, you could see it with him out and with Keon (Sabb) transferring to Alabama, and a little more of a struggle covering over the middle of the field. On the outside, they were still great with Will Johnson and Jyaire Hill, those corners that they always have going there at Michigan, but struggled over the middle. "I think Rod Moore is gonna be a big piece of fixing that problem. He's got great recovery speed. He's got good eyes back there and as long as he can run like he used to before the torn ACL, I think Wink Martindale is gonna have a lot of fun playing a lot of single-high with Rod Moore back at free safety." The big question for Moore is whether or not he can return fully healthy. He told The Wolverine on Monday that he's up to 80-85% healthy at this juncture, but being healthy and capable of returning to full game speed and instinct is a completely different thing altogether. If Moore does take some time to get going, the Wolverines are excited about many of the options they have at safety as it is. Brandyn Hillman, Mason Curtis, TJ Metcalf, Tevis Metcalf, and Jaden Mangham are all strong options for the maize and blue in the middle of the secondary, even if Moore is healthy and ready to go. Michigan is set to begin fall camp on July 29 with eyes on the season opener on August 30 against New Mexico at The Big House.
