SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- For the first time in 36 days, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings participated in practice Monday.
The Niners held their "bonus" practice Monday morning as they begin preparations for Sunday's regular season opener against the Seattle Seahawks . And when they did, they were about as healthy as they've been all offseason as five players -- Jennings, guard Dominick Puni (knee), defensive tackle Kalia Davis , receiver Russell Gage Jr . (knee) and defensive lineman Yetur Gross-Matos (knee) -- were all back to practice.
But Jennings' return was, perhaps, the most urgent. Since departing the team's fourth practice of training camp on July 27 with a calf injury, Jennings has been rarely seen on side fields and taken part in zero padded practice
