Dante Pettis

Matt Barrows of The Athletic projects Dante Pettis to function as the 49ers' number one wide receiver this season.

Fantasy Impact

Pettis flashed plenty of upside as a rookie last season, totaling four touchdowns over a three-game stretch at one point. San Francisco doesn't have any established receivers on the roster, which creates a big opportunity for the 23-year-old. He's a name to monitor throughout training camp.

Dante Pettis is believed to have suffered an injury to his MCL in Week 16 versus the Bears.

Fantasy Impact

Pettis had totaled three catches for 21 yards before departing. The injury occured when he made a catch but had his knee twisted on the tackle. The 23-year-old had been playing great down the stretch. As of now Pettis is expected to miss Week 17 but not require surgery. He'll be an interesting late round flier in 2019 fantasy drafts.

Dante Pettis caught five passes for 83 yards as the 49ers beat the Seahawks 26-23 on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Pettis operated as the team's number one wideout in this one. He led the team in targets, catches, and receiving yards. Pettis is an intriguing asset to have in dynasty leagues, but he has a tough Week 16 matchup versus the stingy Chicago Bears defense.

Dante Pettis (foot) is active for the 49ers' Week 15 game against the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact

Pettis was trending in the right direction and he's good to go. He's become a viable fantasy option of late, so owners who find themselves in a pinch can feel free to lean on him.

ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting 49ers WR Dante Pettis (foot) is expected to play in Week 15.

Fantasy Impact

While Pettis was a late-addition to the injury report, he is on track to play facing a Seattle defense he unexpectedly went off for a 5/129/2 line against two weeks ago. Pettis has drawn 27 targets combined in his past four games including at seven in each of the past three games, scoring four times in that timespan since Week 12. He will look to keep recent breakout-run moving in Week 15.
