Jauan Jennings is likely in a good amount of fantasy football championship lineups.

That's not good news for those relying on the San Francisco 49ers' wide receiver.

He's off to an incredibly quiet start on Sunday Night Football against the Chicago Bears in Week 17.

That's even with the 49ers scoring almost at will to start the game.

Is Jauan Jennings playing tonight?

Yes, Jauan Jennings is active, healthy and on the field.

He just isn't getting thrown to.

He's out there for some snaps in his usual jersey number 15, and he's done some solid blocking. Of course, that isn't earning any fantasy points.

Ricky Pearsall, Demarcus Robinson and even Skyy Moore already have WR touches early.

So too does tight end Jake Tonges. 

Brock Purdy is running the ball, too.

Jennings is waiting for his chance.
