Dante Pettis News
Veteran free-agent wide receiver Dante Pettis is signing a one-year deal with the Chicago Bears, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN. The 2018 second-round pick last played in 2022 with Chicago, and he was released during last year's training camp with an injury settlement. Pettis has hauled in just 71 passes for 984 yards and 12 touchdowns through his first 50 regular season games. He's unlikely to be on the fantasy radar in 2024, especially since the Bears now have one of the best wide receiver duos in the NFL in DJ Moore and Keenan Allen.
Chicago Bears wide receiver Dante Pettis (undisclosed) was removed from the non-football injury list on Wednesday. The veteran hasn't participated in training camp because of an undisclosed injury. However, with DJ Moore, Chase Claypool, and Darnell Mooney (ankle) expected to serve as Justin Fields' top targets, Pettis may see most of his work as a punt returner this season. If anything, his availability isn't good news for guys like Velus Jones Jr., who is battling for a spot on the roster.
The Chicago Bears re-signed wide receiver Dante Pettis to a one-year deal on Monday. The 27-year-old caught 19 passes for 245 yards and three touchdowns last season, his first year in Chicago, before hitting the free-agent market. Pettis has not lived up to expectations since being taken by the San Francisco 49ers in the second round of the 2018 NFL draft. While he set the all-time NCAA record for most punt-return touchdowns, he has yet to score a special teams touchdown in the NFL. His speed could work well in the Bears offense, and quarterback Justin Fields has hit him deep for some big plays when he does get open, but he has been inconsistent.
