San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings fell short of his first 1,000-yard receiving season in a dramatic turnaround against the Arizona Cardinals. Jennings pleaded his case to the officials and was seen on the sideline explaining the situation to head coach Kyle Shanahan after he was penalized twice for unsportsmanlike conduct – in consecutive games.

The penalties resulted from extracurricular activities involving the Jennings and Cardinals defenders. The first incident involved Jennings and Cardinals cornerback Starling Thomas, resulting in compensatory penalties, while the second incident occurred when the 49ers receiver made contact with cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting.

Both Jennings and Murphy-Bunting were sent off with 6:26 left in the first half.

Jennings finished the game with seven catches for 52 yards on 10 targets and finished the season with 975 receiving yards – just shy of the coveted 1,000-yard milestone.

Over the weekend, the NFL fined Jennings $11,817 for an altercation with the Detroit Lions last week.

Jennings’ absence against the Cardinals increases the challenges for the 49ers, as the team was already without wide receiver Deebo Samuel, who is inactive due to rib and wrist injuries.
