Niners Nation on Jordan Watkins

Watkins must show clean hands and contested-catch ability to secure rotation spot.

Watkins, a former fourth-round pick, missed his rookie 2025 season due to injury and suffered a high-ankle sprain in last preseason. He has reportedly struggled with catching the ball cleanly in camp. If he can finish plays with his speed over the middle and in contested situations, he could cement a spot in the rotation rather than just on the roster.
