Pettis had one reception on three targets for five yards in Sunday's 51-13 win over the Panthers.
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 acquisition of Emmanuel Sanders earlier this week, there was a report that Pettis could be dealt before Tuesday's trade deadline, according to NFL Insider Adam Caplan. A trade to a more pass-happy offense could be the recipe he needs to tap back into the potential the 2018 second-round pick displayed last season, but if he sticks in San Francisco, Pettis will not carry much fantasy value heading into Thursday's matchup against the Cardinals.
