Dante Pettis News: Elevated from practice squad

The Saints elevated Pettis to their active roster from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Panthers.

Pettis is set to make his season debut after signing with New Orleans' practice squad early last month. The 30-year-old is expected to serve as the team's punt returner in Sunday's matchup, replacing Rashid Shaheed, who was traded to the Seahawks earlier in the week.
