METAIRIE, La. – After seeing one of their wide receivers signed away earlier this week, the New Orleans Saints have brought a familiar face back to the practice squad.

Thursday afternoon, the Saints announced that they have re-signed wide receiver Dante Pettis to the practice squad. Pettis was a later-season addition to the club in 2024 and spent the 2025 offseason with the team before being released at roster cuts.
