New York Giants claim former 49ers WR Dante Pettis off waivers

The New York Giants stood still at the 2020 NFL trade deadline, holding onto trade-candidates like Golden Tate and Kevin Zeitler. It was a quiet deadline across the league with minimal trades made this season. But after the deadline, plenty of teams reshaped their rosters, cutting players that they were unable to trade before the deadline.

The San Fransisco 49ers were one of the teams that made a surprising cut this week, waiving wide receiver Dante Pettis. Pettis is a former second-round draft pick that has now been claimed off of the waivers by the New York Giants, according to Adam Schefter.
