Inconsistent start to camp Pettis hasn't risen above the Bears' less experienced receivers the way a former second-round pick may be expected to, Gene Chamberlain of SI.com reports.

Impact Pettis hasn't been getting consistent separation against defensive backs with little NFL experience during practices. He's also struggled with occasional drops. Although Pettis had a strong rookie season in 2018, when he posted 467 yards and five touchdowns, he's recorded just 172 yards and four scores in 21 games over the last three seasons. It's likely he'll remain in a battle for one of the last wide receiver spots on the roster.

Impact The wide receiver was moved to the COVID list Jan. 1, forcing him to be away from the Giants' facilities as he worked his way through league protocols. Pettis will now be able to keep rehabbing his shoulder injury with his sights set on a return for the 2022 campaign.

Giants' injured Barkley off COVID list, but out vs. Raiders

Heads to IR The Giants placed Pettis (shoulder) on injured reserve Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Pettis suffered a left shoulder injury during Monday's loss to the Chiefs, and he will now have to miss a minimum of three weeks while on IR. If the likes of Kadarius Toney (thumb), Kenny Golladay (knee) and/or Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) are healthy by the time Pettis is able to return, he could see his role on offense significantly reduced.

Not practicing again Pettis (shoulder) didn't take part in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The Giants listed Pettis as a non-participant on their official Week 9 report for the second straight day, after he sustained a left shoulder injury in Monday's loss to the Chiefs. The lack of practice reps this week seemingly put Pettis' availability for Sunday's game against the Raiders in peril, but the Giants will see what he's able to do at Friday's session before gauging where he stands heading into the weekend. If active Sunday, Pettis could have the chance to fill a key role in the Giants' passing game. Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) appears to be trending toward sitting out Week 9, while the statuses of fellow wideouts Kenny Golladay (knee), Kadarius Toney (thumb) and John Ross (quadriceps) are up in the air.
