It's unclear what the nature of Pettis' injury is, but he was fighting for a roster spot as a depth WR. Pettis played 17 games, starting seven, for Chicago in 2022. His 245 yards and three touchdowns were the most since his rookie year in 2018 with the 49ers. He will miss the 2023 season and can return in 2024.
