Dante Pettis Could Be Elevated to Active Roster for Broncos Game

With injuries decimating the San Francisco 49ers receiving corps, 30-year-old practice squad wide receiver Dante Pettis is a strong candidate to be elevated for Sunday's matchup against the Denver Broncos. Pettis has not started a game since the 2022 season with the Chicago Bears, and he caught nine passes for 127 yards for the New Orleans Saints last year. The 49ers are thin at receiver behind Deebo Samuel, Jacob Cowing, and Jordan Watkins, putting Pettis in line for game-day action.
