San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings made some history this past weekend with his huge performance against the Los Angeles Rams. 

The former Tennessee Vols standout put up the best stat line of his career, catching 11 passes for 175 yards and three touchdowns in a loss to Los Angeles. 

Jennings, who was a seventh round selection by San Francisco in the 2020 NFL Draft, is one of only two 49ers wide receivers that's had 10 plus receptions, 175 plus yards, and three touchdowns in a single game. 

Hall of Famer Jerry Rice, one of the greatest football players of all time, is the only other 49ers wide receiver to accomplish the feat (Rice did it twice). 

Despite Jennings' big day, the former Vol wasn't happy after the game. Jennings reportedly left the locker room without speaking to the media out of frustration because of the loss. 

Jennings is all about winning. The stats don't mean much to him if he's not on the right side of the scoreboard.
