Dante Pettis

Gladstone

Sad to see his NFL career not panning out, an all time great UW player. I'll never forget seeing him break the all time NCAA PR TD record in the rain against Oregon.

When he got rocked and fumbled against the Seahawks I didn't cheer. Just sad for the dude. And his pops has bad a real rough go of it with cancer

My inner hook would like to see him get picked up by Seattle to replace Swain.

49ers should cut him. He needs a shot elsewhere. It’s not happening in SF tho. He’s dead and buried there.

BeerThirty

Hopefully a change if scenery will do him good. A new team can turn a guy's career around

Eh never really expected much from him. Always new Hall was the glue holding together that reciever room.

Both Ross and Pettis need a change of scenery ... probably both at 80/20 their careers not really panning out though

Kingdome_Urinals

Neither Ross or Pettis are very physical receivers at all, in fact below average physicality at the NFL level.

Every time they get hit they get rocked.

DoogWhisperer

He does not have a great or even good skill at the pro level. He's average to below average in everything as an NFL receiver. At least Ross has speed.

BleachedAnusDawg

I don't think he has the mentality to be successful in the NFL. Completely guessing here, but he seems to be interested in non-football stuff more than playing football from things I've read. Great Dawg, though.

I liked Pettis at UW. I didn’t expect him to be a 2nd round pick, but he had some good games his rookie year.

He’s really soft and he hasn’t bounced back from tough love at all. His only shot is going somewhere else. It’s not looking good for him.

- he's a skilled player
- he's got talent
- he's kinda soft
- he's kinda ... flamboyant

Hope he makes good on a second or third chance in the league ...

Like Deion Sanders flamboyant or Michael Sam flamboyant?

I had to think a moment to remember who Michael Sam was

He is the type a kid that thrives from positive reinforcement, unfortunately nfl is a cutthroat business and a some of the soft kids finding this out the hard way

I almost died of @priapism when Pettis roasted Minka Fitzpatrick 1-on-1 and caught a Browning dime in the back of the endzone to start the playoff.

I didn't know any of those guys were gay.

Pettis might be. I dont know or care. I agree he doesn't seem to have the mental makeup of a typical football player and that may be what holds him up. It's almost impossible to perform at that level without being 100% dedicated these days.

Such a beautiful play design too. They started with Pettis lined up in the backfield and motioned him out wide before the snap to ensure a 1-on-1 look where Fitzpatrick didn't have time to fully get situated with his position on the field. Which allowed Pettis to round out his route towards the sideline at the end to create separation.

The fuck happened to Pete's offense after 2016?

Didn't Garcia marry a playboy playmate?
