Just like they thought I did something wrong or something and I didn't view it as something wrong. Like on a route or like my second year I guess I was a little more immature where I wasn't practicing as hard, and they saw that as like I didn't care or something.

Thomas at least played and contributed. Foster wasn't as talented as he looked in college and he had those off field problems as well as injury issues.
Pettis was just a bust. It seemed like he showed some promise his rookie season and then the lights went out.

49ers should bring him back as a Punt returner, we haven't been good since he left.

This guy….
on his time with the niners:
Cant believe we wasted a 2nd round pick on this guy.
on his time with the niners:
Like on a route or like my second year I guess I was a little more immature where I wasn't practicing as hard, and they saw that as like I didn't care or something. At practice like I didn't get the urgency, I guessOn why he'll be better with the giants
"Definitely the pressure that Coach Judge puts on us at practice I think helps a lot because you're kinda in that mode every day where it's like, 'I have to be perfect this play,' or else blah, blah, blah, blah," Pettis told The Post. "I think that's helped with my mentality just like being ready for practice every single day."That s**t makes no sense. So you weren't taking practice seriously and now you're with a coach who you claim puts a ton of pressure on everyone to practice perfectly and somehow that's going to make you better???
I can be a really good football player, I know that, I know I've shown it," Pettis said. "I have confidence in myself.That don't sound like the words of someone who's confident. A confident player ain't saying I CAN be good. They're telling us they are good and how great they can be.
I'm fast, but I'm not like blazing fast," Pettis said. "I'm not super-big, I know how to get open, I know how to catch the ball. I can still runLol….just listen to that confidence. I'm fast guys….we'll not reallly…and I guess I'm not that big either….but I can still run! 🤣🤣
This is only my fourth year," Pettis said. "It's not like I'm 10 years in or something.Cut him some slack everyone. He's only been in the league for 4 years. Everyone knows players don't hit their peaks till about 7 years in 😂
Cant believe we wasted a 2nd round pick on this guy.

I always suspect he never outgrown the college years. It never occurred to him to --try harder. He's always already good enough in his mind.
