Saints Elevate Pettis for Punt Return Duty
23 Nov
Summary
- Pettis promoted from practice squad for Sunday's game.
- He will serve as punt returner, filling in for Shaheed.
- This role continues after the team's bye week.
The New Orleans Saints have promoted player Pettis from the practice squad to the active roster. This strategic elevation occurred on Saturday, just ahead of their Sunday matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
Pettis's recent involvement with the team began in Week 10, where he served as the designated punt returner. He stepped into this crucial role following the departure of Rashid Shaheed, who was traded to Seattle.
With the team returning from their bye week, it appears Pettis is set to continue his responsibilities as the primary punt returner in the upcoming contest against Atlanta. This confirms his ongoing significance in the team's special teams unit.
