Amidst injuries and trades at the wide receiver position, Dante Pettis got his chance in the second half of the 2025 season, making 8 appearances for the black and gold.
He hauled in 9 catches for 127 yards, seeing some action as a returner after the Saints traded Rashid Shaheed. His one-year deal was cheap, and the door remains open that he reaches a similar agreement to remain in New Orleans this summer.
Pettis’ best games were the final pair of the season, although his fumble near the goal line turned what could’ve been a long touchdown into a turnover late in the game against Tennessee.
The former second-round pick out of Washington is a journeyman receiver. He’s spent a couple of years in the black and gold now and seems to have built a bit of a connection with Tyler Shough in the latter stages of the season.
Would you re-sign Pettis? Are there other free agent receivers you’d prefer to see the Saints bring in? Let us know in the comments!
