Who Should I Start? Dante Pettis or Savion Williams

Tuesday, March 11, 4:51 PM

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.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Savion Williams has mostly been limited to special teams and a handful of designed touches over the first eight games. Williams has been used creatively, catching all seven of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown while also adding eight carries for 28 yards and another score on the ground. The rookie third-round pick out of TCU has strong ball-in-hand skills, which could lead to more of these designed touches as the Packers will be without their best YAC threat in star tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) for the rest of the season. However, it will be difficult to earn consistent playing time behind Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden, in addition to Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) when healthy. Williams is also dealing with a foot injury, having been limited in Friday's practice with a foot injury. Williams remains off the radar for redraft leagues for now.
