Who Should I Start? Dante Pettis or Dee Eskridge

The New Orleans Saints agreed to terms on an undisclosed one-year deal to re-sign wide receiver Dante Pettis on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pettis began the 2024 season with the Chicago Bears before being released in September with an injury settlement. He eventually latched onto the Saints' practice squad before becoming a part of their offense late in the season. The 29-year-old finished his sixth year in the NFL with 12 receptions on 28 targets for just 120 yards and one touchdown in eight starts. The former second-round pick (44th overall) by the San Francisco 49ers in 2018 out of the University of Washington had his best season in his rookie year, when he had 27 catches for 467 yards and five touchdowns on 45 targets in 12 games (seven starts). Pettis will look for a bigger role in his first full season in New Orleans but will most likely have a small role behind Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed.

The Miami Dolphins have re-signed wide receiver Dee Eskridge. The two sides have agreed on a one-year deal for an undisclosed amount of money. The former second-round pick from 2021 has unfortunately not lived up to the hype. Last season, Eskridge hauled in three receptions for 44 yards in six games during his first year with the Dolphins. He averaged nearly 30 yards per kick return, so that is likely why the Dolphins decided to bring him back. Eskridge could see a few targets as well, but he'll probably mainly be used on special teams, so he won't be fantasy relevant.
