Saints just cut a former 49ers player who never escaped Kyle Shanahan’s doghouse

NFL teams made plenty of roster cuts on Tuesday as they trimmed their rosters down to 53 players. One former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver, and former member of head coach Kyle Shanahan's doghouse, Dante Pettis ended up on the chopping block.

Pettis was among those cut by the New Orleans Saints. This does not come as a huge shock since he was on the bubble in New Orleans, but he is now searching for a new home. Do not count on a reunion with the 49ers, though.

San Francisco selected Pettis in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
