Pettis had 19 catches for 245 yards and three touchdowns last season. Overall during his pro career, he has 52 catches for 739 yards and nine touchdowns.

Reed signed with the Bears in January and was a fifth-round draft pick by the Chargers in 2020. His only action was his rookie season in which he averaged 20.7 yards on 21 kickoff returns.
