Summary

Tight End Rank: #8All Players: #73

A full season of Matthew Stafford led to a huge year for Pettigrew, who set career highs in receptions, yards and touchdowns. Pettigrew was a consistent force in the Lions' offense. He had two 100-yard games and at least three receptions in all but two games. He finished just shy of 800 yards and caught 83 passes. He has 154 receptions the last two seasons, averaging 750 yards per season. The Lions offense is emerging with some promising young talent, and Pettigrew is one of the top targets in the passing game. He is the complete package at tight end. Pettigrew is a huge tight end with plus hands and top athleticism. His size makes him a tough cover for the opposition. He also is a willing blocker, which helps the Lions rushing attack.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

His lack of scores (nine the last two seasons) is the only thing holding Pettigrew back from elite tight end status. He remains a solid No. 1, though, and it wouldn't surprise if his touchdown numbers improved some this season. He certainly has the potential because of his size and athleticism. He can get 800 yards and eight touchdowns in this offense.
