News

  • Playing Week 11

    Pettis (back) is listed as active Sunday against the Cardinals, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Available for all 10 of the 49ers games this season, Pettis hasn't made much of an impact when on the field in the previous nine, posting an 11-109-2 line on 24 targets. Top wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) is banged up at the moment, but Deebo Samuel and Kendrick Bourne (and not Pettis) profited when the veteran was knocked out of the team's Week 10 loss to the Seahawks. As a result, Pettis may be relegated to a situational role yet again on this game day.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Pettis (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Pettis arguably has a bit more intrigue with Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) also listed as questionable, but recent comments from coach Kyle Shanahan don't bode well for the second-year pro. The 49ers used Deebo Samuel and Kendrick Bourne ahead of Pettis after Sanders suffered the rib injury during Monday's 27-24 loss to Seattle. It'll be interesting to see the 49ers' inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, as they have five players listed as out or doubtful and a…read more

  • Still has cap on practice reps

    Pettis (back) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kicking off the week with back-to-back capped session leaves Pettis in some limbo for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. His listing on Friday's injury report will provide a sense of his chances to suit up Week 11.

  • Limited by back injury

    Pettis was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a back injury.

    Analysis: Pettis is coming off an uneventful performance in Monday's loss to the Seahawks, during which he went without a catch on three targets. He apparently picked up an injury along the way, adding another complication as he prepares for a Week 11 matchup with the Cardinals. The 24-year-old has been minimally involved in the offense over the last three games, so even if he's available this week, he shouldn't garner much fantasy interest.

  • No catches Monday

    Pettis was targeted three times but did not record a catch in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Deebo Samuel and Kendrick Bourne were given opportunities to shine after Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) left the contest early. Pettis was out there for a few routes (38 percent of snaps), but he was unable to establish any sort of rapport with Jimmy Garoppolo, as has been the case all season. It has been a harsh fall from grace for the 2018 second-round pick, and even if Sanders is unable to go next week, Pettis would not be worth considering in fantasy.

  • Sticks in backup role

    Pettis caught his lone target for 21 yards in Thursday's 28-25 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Pettis was removed from his starting role last week against the Panthers, and he retained the decreased role (30 percent of offensive snaps Thursday) behind rookie Deebo Samuel against Arizona. The second-year receiver has really seen his stock plummet after posting WR1 numbers over the final quarter of the 2018 season. With the trade deadline passed, Pettis will continue to serve a backup role (eliminating nearly all of his fantasy value) heading into another divisional matchup against the…read more

  • Role reduced, trade rumored

    Pettis had one reception on three targets for five yards in Sunday's 51-13 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old was bumped out of the starting lineup in favor of rookie Deebo Samuel for the first time since Week 2. It is no secret that Pettis has been a colossal disappointment in his sophomore season. From having his motivation questioned by his head coach in the preseason, to poor statistical results despite technically being a starter (10 catches for 88 yards and a touchdown over seven games), there isn't a positive takeaway from his 2019 campaign so far. In fact, following the…read more

  • Good for Sunday

    Pettis (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Pettis played 92 percent of snaps on offense in last week's 9-0 win over Washington, but he's in danger of a significant reduction with Emmanuel Sanders joining the 49ers and Deebo Samuel cleared to return from a groin injury. Meanwhile, Marquise Goodwin is listed as questionable for unspecified non-injury reasons.

  • Tending to knee injury

    Pettis was limited at Thursday's practice by a knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Pettis was impacted by knee injuries at times during his rookie season in 2018, missing four games in the process. In the current campaign, he hasn't missed a contest but has played through groin and pectoral issues. With another health concern in tow, Pettis again is a question mark as the 49ers gear up for a visit from the Panthers on Sunday.

  • No catches in win

    Pettis was unable to haul in either of his targets in Sunday's 9-0 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Pettis led all receivers with 59 offensive snaps (92 percent), but his production was hampered by treacherous conditions. The 23-year-old continues to start for the 49ers, even if his stat lines suggest otherwise. San Francisco has been committed to establishing the run first, and when it goes to the air, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has shown to spread the targets evenly behind star tight end George Kittle. It will be tough to trust Pettis against Carolina's top-10 passing defense Sunday.

  • Leads wideouts with 45 yards

    Pettis caught three passes (six targets) for 45 yards in Sunday's 20-7 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Pettis led all San Francisco wide receivers in receptions (three), targets (six) and receiving yards (45), but it was the team's tight end, George Kittle, who ate up most of Jimmy Garoppolo's modest aerial production. The yardage represents a season high for the 23-year-old wideout, highlighting a disappointing start to his sophomore campaign. Pettis continues to start on a weekly basis, but the 49ers' zone-run scheme has left few scraps to be had in the passing game outside of the team's…read more

  • Leaves points on field

    Pettis caught one pass (three targets) for 11 yards in Monday's 31-3 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Pettis got another start alongside Marquise Goodwin, but as has been the case this season, the wideout was unable to do much with the opportunity. In the 23-year-old's defense, there weren't many footballs flying around the field in a contest dominated by the 49ers' rushing attack from start to finish. However, Pettis had a golden opportunity to potentially score a touchdown in garbage time, but he suffered a costly drop in a situation with plenty of open field ahead of him. San Francisco may…read more

  • Another preseason injury revealed

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed that Pettis has been dealing with a pectoral injury in addition to a previously reported groin injury to begin the season, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Pettis' groin injury was kept under wraps to begin the season, and this pectoral injury is only now being announced to the public despite it developing during the preseason. This could help explain the second-year wideout's lack of production through three weeks (five receptions on six targets for 27 yards and a touchdown). The good news is that Shanahan stated that Pettis has been regaining both lower- and upper-body strength, and that culminated in the receiver's best stat line against the…read more

  • Scores game-winning touchdown

    Pettis caught four passes on five targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Pettis appeared to be on his way to another forgettable performance before making his first touchdown grab of the season in the waning moments of a tight contest -- and while 20 yards is nothing to write home about, the score certainly boosted the wideout's confidence, as evidenced by the energy he showed on the sideline after the big grab. Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has been spreading the ball evenly among his WRs, a formula that has resulted in three victories but has also created angst…read more

  • Only usage as passer

    Pettis was not targeted, but completed his lone pass attempt on a trick play for 16 yards in Sunday's 41-17 win over Cincinnati.

    Analysis: Pettis' lack of usage in the first game of the season was attributed to health, but the wideout was cleared for action against the Bengals this week. While he didn't see a target, the 23-year-old did start and was on the field for 49 percent of the snaps on offense, second to only fellow starter Marquise Goodwin (51 percent of the offensive plays). So while the results have been poor, Pettis' playing time this week does fall in line with being a starter. That said, one catch for seven yards…read more

  • Expects to play

    Pettis said he feels healthy and expects to see more playing time Sunday in Cincinnati, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Pettis noted that his "body's back to normal," hinting that he wasn't quite at full strength Week 1 when he played just two snaps in a 31-17 win over Tampa Bay. He picked up a groin injury late in August, but the 49ers listed him as a full practice participant last Thursday and Friday. Pettis isn't listed on the injury report this week, and he could take some of the snaps that went to Deebo Samuel, Richie James and Kendrick Bourne in the season opener.

  • Barely used in opener

    Coach Kyle Shanahan suggested health concerns contributed to the lack of playing time for Pettis in Sunday's 31-17 win over Tampa Bay, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. "[Pettis] just got cleared to come back on Monday, so he was a little behind the 8-ball on that," Shanahan said. "Hopefully he'll work off that and continue to earn some more time out there."

    Analysis: Pettis caught his lone target for a seven-yard gain on two snaps, and he didn't even get any playing time on special teams. It sounds like his preseason groin injury was a factor, though he was a full practice participant Thursday and Friday before the game. Shanahan was critical of Pettis throughout August, hinting at a lack of consistency in route running and intensity. On the other hand, Shanahan also stated his belief that Pettis "can be our best player". In the season opener, Deebo Samuel…read more

  • Disappointing opening performance

    Pettis hauled in his only target for seven yards in Week 1 against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Pettis made his lone catch of the contest in the middle of the second quarter. After a tumultuous offseason during which he was criticized by head coach Kyle Shanahan, Pettis was still expected to fill a large role in the team's passing attack. However, this lackluster performance calls into question how much he'll be involved going forward. He'll look to get back in the mix as the team heads to Cincinnati for a matchup against the Bengals in Week 2.

  • Not listed on injury report

    Pettis (groin) is not listed on the injury report and is expected to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.

    Analysis: Pettis had been hampered by a minor groin strain, but an unrestricted practice Thursday hinted that he would suit up Sunday. The 23-year-old has had his starting role threatened by the coaching staff this preseason -- in an effort to motivate the receiver -- but his usage during the exhibition games would signify that he is a starter opposite Marquise Goodwin. The Bucs had one of the worst passing defenses in 2018, so there is matchup appeal for Pettis, even following his tumultuous preseason.

  • Progress to full participation

    Pettis (groin) practiced in full Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Pettis endured a topsy-turvy training camp and preseason, which culminated with the second-year wideout suffering a minor groin injury in late August. He kicked off Week 1 prep with a limited session Wednesday, so his progression to an uncapped practice one day later bodes well for his availability Sunday at Tampa Bay.

  • Limited in practice Wednesday

    Pettis (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Pettis' groin injury doesn't appear to be a long-term concern, but he's not quite in the clear yet for the 49ers' Week 1 game at Tampa Bay. The wideout dealt with criticism from coach Kyle Shanahan through training camp and the preseason, but the expectation remains that he'll open the season with the starting unit if his health cooperates.

  • Still has Shanahan's confidence

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that he's been critical of Pettis (groin) because he believes the wide receiver is talented enough to become the best player on the 49ers, Eric Branch of The San Francisco Chronicle reports. "[Pettis] can be our best player on this team," Shanahan said. "He can be our No. 1 receiver, our No. 2 receiver, our slot receiver, or just a role receiver. And he's shown that he can do all of that, but he hasn't shown it consistently enough so that we know exactly where to put him."

    Analysis: Shanahan clarified that his uncertainty involves the exact nature of Pettis' role, not whether the 23-year-old will be an important part of the team. Pettis made the start and took regular snaps with the first-team offense in last week's preseason win over Kansas City, but he also stayed in the game until early in the fourth quarter, long after Jimmy Garoppolo, Marquise Goodwin, Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida had been removed. Now dealing with a minor groin injury, Pettis acknowledged Monday…read more

    Pettis disclosed Monday that he's managing a "minor" groin injury, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Pettis also addressed recent challenges from coach Kyle Shanahan, acknowledging a need to improve his route running and play with increased urgency. The second-year wideout appears likely for a key Week 1 role assuming a full recovery, though he may see a short leash until he plays to a level that alleviates the coaching staff's worries.

    Analysis: It remains to be seen what sort of injury Pettis is dealing with, but any time missed due to injury could impact his Week 1 role. Coach Kyle Shanahan reiterated Sunday that Pettis is competing for a starting role, according to Matt Barrow of The Athletic, citing a lack of consistency for the second-year wideout. With Trent Taylor (foot) expected to miss the start of the regular season and Jalen Hurd (back) nursing an injury, San Francisco's wideout corps could struggle to provide depth until…read more

  • Challenged by coach again

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Pettis played into the fourth quarter of Saturday's preseason win over the Chiefs because he's still in the process of competing for a role, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. "He's still trying to earn a role on this team and still is trying to show what he's capable of doing ... consistently," Shanahan said.

    Analysis: Shanahan made similar comments a couple weeks back, noting that Pettis would need to earn his starting job. The second-year wideout has been used as a starter throughout the preseason, but he also played deep into Saturday's contest, ultimately catching three of five targets for 36 yards (his only receptions all preseason). Given the way he finished his rookie year, Pettis still seems likely to have spot in the Week 1 starting lineup, though he'll apparently be on a short leash if he doesn't…read more

  • Targeted just once

    Pettis couldn't haul in his lone target in Monday night's 24-15 preseason win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Pettis featured very briefly as the 49ers' first-team offense endured a rough outing in Jimmy Garoppolo's preseason debut. The quarterback completed one of six attempts, but targeted Pettis on his first dropback. Unfortunately, that ball was batted at the line, so Pettis will hope Saturday's meeting with the Chiefs offers a more productive session with his starting signal caller as the Niners prepare for the regular season.

  • Starting job not guaranteed

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan wants to challenge Pettis to earn a starting job this preseason, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: It was initially assumed that Pettis was the lone wideout to have a starting job secured heading into the 2019 season, but his head coach's statement puts that notion into question. The 23-year-old started Saturday's preseason opener, playing 17 snaps and failing to haul in his lone target. Rookie wideouts Deebo Samuel (two receptions for 61 yards) and Jalen Hurd (three receptions, 31 yards and two touchdowns) had far more promising games -- albeit against second-string defenders -- so Pettis…read more

  • Minimally involved versus Dallas

    Pettis failed to bring in his only target during Saturday's preseason opener against Dallas.

    Analysis: Pettis was hardly involved in the first taste of exhibition action, with his only touch coming on a punt return for no gain. Many of the team's key skill players were held out, so his lack of usage could actually be a good indicator of his status on the depth chart. Pettis should see more run next Monday against the Broncos.

  • Weighs 197 pounds

    Pettis said he now weighs 197 pounds, Eric Branch of The San Francisco Chronicle reports. "I know I'm a little slimmer," Pettis said. "So that's something I've always been trying to work on: Just trying to gain a little more weight, get a little stronger."

    Analysis: Despite struggling with knee injuries and the intricacies of Kyle Shanahan's offense, Pettis finished out his rookie campaign with a 20-359-4 receiving line on 31 targets over his final five games. The late outburst puts him in good position for a starting job this season, but he'll have serious competition for volume in a San Francisco offense with solid depth at both wide receiver and running back, not to mention a tight end (George Kittle) who demands at least seven or eight targets per…read more

  • Projected as starter

    Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area lists Pettis not only as a lock to make the roster, but also the favorite to begin the season as a starter.

    Analysis: San Francisco used its second and third-round selections on wideouts Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd. The latter is considered more of a project, while the former -- according to Maiocco -- could immediately start alongside the club's 2018 second-round pick. Pettis appears to have leapfrogged last year's starter, Marquise Goodwin, putting him in a position to make a fantasy impact with Jimmy Garoppolo returning from injury.

  • Expected to add weight

    General manager John Lynch expects Pettis to bulk up during the offseason, Joe Fann of the 49ers' official website reports. "We loved the way [Pettis] closed this season," Lynch said. "There's some maturation that I think is naturally going to come in terms of putting some girth on and some strength. I think this offseason is very important for him."

    Analysis: Despite missing the final game of his rookie season with an MCL sprain, Pettis seems to be ready for a normal workout program this offseason. The 49ers list him at 6-foot-1, 195 pounds, but he only weighed 186 at the 2018 combine. Coming off an efficient rookie season with a 27-467-5 receiving line on 45 targets (10.4 YPT, 17.3 YPR), the 23-year-old should be an important part of the San Francisco offense in 2019, though it's possible he occupies a part-time role if the team makes an aggressive…read more

  • Moves to injured reserve

    Pettis (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: The move means little for the status of Pettis' sprained MCL -- he was already ruled out for Week 17 on Monday -- as the 49ers are just clearing roster space for healthy players prior to the season finale. The rookie second-round pick caught 27 passes for 467 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games, coming on strong towards the end of the season. Kendrick Bourne and Trent Taylor are likely to start at wide receiver Sunday against the Rams, with Marquise Goodwin (calf) also sidelined.

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan has ruled Pettis (knee) out for the season finale Sunday against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Pettis sprained his MCL during this past weekend's loss to Chicago. His season now over, the 2018 second-rounder will get an early start to the offseason with much to build upon after averaging four receptions for 71.8 yards with four touchdowns over the final five games of the season. The impending return of Jimmy Garoppolo (knee) at quarterback in 2019 makes Pettis' future even brighter.

    Pettis sustained an MCL injury Sunday against the Bears and is not expected to need surgery, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: It seems unlikely Pettis will play in the 49ers' meaningless Week 17 contest, but it's at least positive news that the rookie is not expected to need surgery. Kendrick Bourne figures to benefit the most in the event Pettis is indeed ruled out next week.

  • Ruled out with knee injury

    Pettis (knee) won't return to Sunday's contest against the Bears.

    Analysis: The severity of Pettis' knee concern isn't known, but the 49ers won't risk his health with little to play for, draft positioning aside. Marquise Goodwin and Kendrick Bourne should benefit the most in Pettis' absence, but Trent Taylor and even Richie James are on hand for his vacated targets.

  • Sustains knee injury

    Pettis is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Bears due to a knee injury, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Pettis dealt with a knee injury late in the preseason and for most of the first half of the regular season, but he's mostly been injury-free since the calendar flipped to November, aside from a foot issue that limited him a bit during Week 15 prep. If he doesn't reenter the game, he'll fall short of 49 receiving yards for the first time since Week 10. Look for Marquise Goodwin and Kendrick Bourne to profit in Pettis' absence.

  • Stays hot in overtime win

    Pettis corralled all five of his targets, racking up 83 receiving yards during Sunday's 26-23 win against Seattle.

    Analysis: The rookie wide receiver out of Washington has been spectacular of late, picking up at least 80 receiving yards or a touchdown in four consecutive outings (per-game averages of 4.3 catches, 84.5 receiving yards and one touchdown over that span). Pettis entered Sunday as questionable with a foot injury, but there were no signs of the ailment whatsoever against the Seahawks, with three of his five receptions on the day going for 15 or more yards. He's been explosive if provided with an…read more

  • Active Week 15

    Pettis (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: As expected, Pettis will be available in spite of logging limited practices Thursday and Friday. In three appearances since the 49ers' Week 11 bye, he's racked up 12 receptions (on 21 targets) for 255 yards and four touchdowns, including a 5-129-2 line Week 13 in Seattle.

  • Likely to play Sunday

    Pettis (foot), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, is in line to play, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN.

    Analysis: Pettis and fellow starting wideout Marquise Goodwin (calf) both carried questionable tags into the weekend, but the duo should be good to go after managing limited showings in practices Thursday and Friday. With Pierre Garcon (knee) shut down for the season, Pettis should have a clear path to ample snaps over the 49ers' final three contests, and may have already established himself as quarterback Nick Mullens' go-to option at receiver. The rookie has drawn seven targets in each of the past…read more

  • Questionable along with Goodwin

    Pettis (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Pettis and Marquise Goodwin (calf) were both mid-week additions to the injury report, logging limited practices Thursday and Friday after full sessions Wednesday. While there's been no report of either injury being serious, the situation may need to be monitored leading up to Sunday's 4:05 PM ET kickoff. Kendrick Bourne, Trent Taylor and Richie James are the healthy wide receivers on the 49ers' roster.

  • Shows up on injury report

    Pettis was listed as a limited participant at Thursday's practice due to a foot injury, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Both Pettis and fellow starting wideout Marquise Goodwin (calf) were unlisted on the 49ers' initial Week 15 injury report Wednesday before appearing on Thursday's version as limited participants. That seemingly points to both players receiving some maintenance Thursday, but the team's final injury report Friday will offer clarity on whether Pettis or Goodwin are truly in any danger of siting out Sunday against the Seahawks. Goodwin's return from a two-game absence last weekend against Denver…read more

  • Finds end zone in win

    Pettis brought in three of seven targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 20-14 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    Analysis: Pettis remained in the starting lineup despite the return of Marquise Goodwin (personal), and he rewarded fantasy owners with his fourth touchdown over the last three games. The 23-year-old has seen seven targets in each of those contests, and he's consistently displayed a strong rapport with rookie signal caller Nick Mullens. Pettis figures to remain with the first unit against the Seahawks in Week 15.

  • Another start on tap

    Pettis is expected to remain in the starting lineup Sunday against the Broncos with fellow wideout Pierre Garcon (knee) ruled out for the contest, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Pettis has gone wild over the past two weeks while Garcon and Marquise Goodwin (personal) were inactive for both contests, hauling in nine of 14 targets for 206 yards and three scores. With Goodwin having since rejoined the team and likely in store for a regular role on offense Sunday, Pettis' path to being the obvious No. 1 option at receiver becomes more blocked, but there should be enough looks to go around for both players. In the eight games he has played this season, Goodwin has commanded…read more

  • Catches two touchdowns in loss

    Pettis caught five of seven passing attempts for 129 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 43-16 loss to the Seahawks. He also lost two yards on his lone carry.

    Analysis: Pettis caught a 17-yard pass to get San Francisco in the end zone for the first time in the third quarter, and in the fourth, the 2018 second-round pick caught a 75-yard ball for the longest play of his young career and another touchdown. After back-to-back strong performances, Pettis likely will have a large role in the 49ers' offense going forward, even if Marquise Goodwin (personal) and Pierre Garcon (knee) both return. The Washington product will try to keep it going at home Week 14 against…read more

  • Drawing another start

    Pettis will retain a spot in the starting lineup Sunday against the Seahawks with Marquise Goodwin (not-injury related) and Pierre Garcon (knee) ruled out for the contest, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The absences of Goodwin and Garcon should translate to full-time roles for both Pettis and Kendrick Bourne, while Richie James enters the mix in three-receiver formations. Pettis was by far the most productive of the healthy wideouts when Goodwin and Garcon were sidelined for the Week 12 loss to the Buccaneers, as the rookie notched four receptions for 77 yards and a touchdown. He could struggle to reach those marks while matching up against a tougher Seattle secondary, making Pettis an ideal…read more

  • Makes mark in spot start

    Pettis brought in four of seven targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 27-9 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Pettis found himself in a starting role with both Marquise Goodwin (personal) and Pierre Garcon (knee) out of action, and he delivered with a team-high receiving yardage tally and the only touchdown of the day for the 49ers. The rookie now has back-to-back four-catch efforts, although his yardage total Sunday was a career-high figure. The 23-year-old may have carved out a larger role for himself irrespective of the health of the rest of the receiver corps, something he'll look to capitalize on…read more

  • Catches four passes in loss

    Pettis had four catches (six targets) for 12 yards in Monday's 27-23 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: The four catches and six targets were both season highs for the rookie wideout, but the 12 yards were certainly underwhelming. Still, Pettis' target spike may be a sign that the 2-8 49ers are willing to see what their second-round pick has to offer down the stretch. It will be interesting to see how the 23-year-old is used following the team's Week 11 bye, especially if Pierre Garcon (knee) is able to return. For now, there is no reason to jump the gun with Pettis in the majority of fantasy…read more

  • Remains a non-factor

    Pettis was not targeted in Thursday's win over Oakland. His only action came on a punt return that went for no gain.

    Analysis: Trent Taylor was a healthy scratch, but the slot man's absence was filled by a combination of Kendrick Bourne and Richie James. Pettis dealt with a knee injury earlier this season, but he has yet to record a catch in two games since returning to action. The 23-year-old doesn't appear to be in the 49ers' immediate plans, despite his status as a second-round draft pick.
