Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. hauled in his fifth touchdown of the season in a 38-24 win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 7. Pittman has been a dangerous red-zone weapon for a red-hot Colts offense through the first seven games of the season. He will look to keep it going in Week 8's home matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans are allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season. Pittman's projection is downgraded a bit with Josh Downs returning from a one-week absence due to a concussion, but he will remain a threat to find the endzone regardless. He sets up as a low-end WR2 in fantasy in Week 8 against Tennessee.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. caught seven of his nine targets for 58 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 win over the Indianapolis Colts. The 28-year-old bounced back after catching just two passes last weekend. He has quietly established himself as the overall WR10 in scoring this season (PPR), and his schedule will only get easier over the next two weeks as he takes on the Titans and Steelers. Facing Tennessee in Week 8 should keep Pittman in the low-end WR1 tier. In his last outing against the Titans, he caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a slow day at the office in a 31-27 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6, catching just two of his three targets for 20 yards as the team leaned on Josh Downs (concussion) in the passing attack. Pittman has a chance to bounce back on the road in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers as Downs has been ruled out with a concussion. The Chargers have been excellent against receivers in fantasy this season as they are allowing just the 30th-most fantasy points per game to the position through six games. With four touchdowns already in six games, Pittman is safe to deploy as a low-end WR2 in fantasy in Week 7 despite the difficult matchup.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a slow performance in a 31-27 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6. Pittman caught just two of his three targets for 20 yards in the close win, breaking a five-game streak where he caught at least four passes or a touchdown. The veteran took a backseat to Tyler Warren and Josh Downs against Arizona, but he had been operating as the Colts' top wide receiver in the five previous games before Week 6's win over the Cardinals. Pittman will now look to bounce back in Week 7's road matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. He can be deployed as a WR3 in fantasy for that contest.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is off to a hot start in 2025. The veteran wide receiver has now caught 26 passes for 273 yards and four touchdowns thus far. Pittman will look to keep it going in Week 6's home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have been solid against the pass this season, allowing the 20th-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts in five contests. That being said, Pittman has emerged as Indy's top wide receiver this season as Daniel Jones seems to prefer him over Josh Downs when dropping back to pass. Fantasy gamers can trust Pittman as a solid WR2 heading into Week 6's slate.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. continued his hot start to the season in a 40-6 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5. Pittman caught five of his six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the blowout win, giving him scores in four of his five games this year. The veteran receiver has been posting modest yardage totals as he's averaging 54.6 yards per game thus far, but he's emerged as Daniel Jones' favorite target so far. Pittman will look to stay hot in a Week 6 home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are allowing just the 20th-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season, but Pittman can be utilized as a WR3 heading into Week 6.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has gotten off to a hot start in 2025. The veteran wide receiver has caught 21 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns through four games. Pittman will look to keep it going in a Week 5 home matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders have been extremely generous to opposing wideouts this season, allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to the position through four games. Pittman sets up as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 in this prime matchup, making him an excellent fantasy option this weekend.

Following his limited participation in Thursday's practice, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (hamstring) reportedly practiced on Friday and will be good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Raiders, according to head coach Shane Steichen. Steichen said his top receiver, in terms of targets, receptions, and touchdowns, was just a little sore, and the fact that he did not earn an official injury designation would support this claim. The Raiders have been an above-average fantasy matchup for receivers through four weeks, and with Alec Pierce (concussion) already ruled out and Adonai Mitchell potentially facing playing time discipline for last week's mental error that cost the team a score, Pittman, who has caught a touchdown in three of four games, could be in line for another big day.
From RotoBaller
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (hamstring) was added to the team's Thursday injury report and listed as a limited practice participant, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. A mid-week addition to the injury report is never a good sign, as it could indicate that Pittman Jr. suffered the injury during practice. Pittman Jr. is off to an excellent start to the season with 21 catches for 234 yards and three touchdowns on 29 targets through four games. If he is unable to play in Week 5 against the Las Vegas Raiders, Colts wide receivers Josh Downs and Adonai Mitchell would both be in line for more targets. Indianapolis wideout Alec Pierce (concussion) missed Week 4 with a concussion, but he's logged two full practices so far this week and would factor in as well if he can suit up in Week 5.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has enjoyed a big bounce-back this season after struggling through his 2024 campaign. Pittman has now caught a touchdown in three of his four contests while drawing 29 targets over that span and leading the Colts' wide receivers with 234 receiving yards. Pittman should stay hot as he will host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5. Pittman has settled in as an every-week WR3 in fantasy and should be fired up across all leagues for his matchup against the Raiders.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has emerged as the favorite target of new quarterback Daniel Jones through the first three weeks of the season. Pittman has been excellent thus far, catching 16 passes for 193 yards and two touchdowns, easily pacing the Colts in all three categories. The veteran wideout will look to keep it going in a Week 4 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams have been decent against wideouts this season, allowing the 14th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pittman should remain the focal point of the Indy offense as they look to improve to 4-0 on the year. He sets up as a high-end WR3/flex option in Week 4.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. had a solid performance in Week 3, catching all six of his targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 41-20 win over the Tennessee Titans. Pittman Jr. led the team in catches, yards, and targets, even on a day when running back Jonathan Taylor stole the spotlight with three touchdowns. The veteran wide receiver has been a consistent target for quarterback Daniel Jones, accumulating nearly 200 yards and two touchdowns through three games this season. If he remains a red-zone target, he should be a reliable WR3 with WR2 upside moving forward.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. had a big Week 1, going for 80 yards and a touchdown, but was quieter last week, catching four passes for 40 yards in a win over the Denver Broncos. Pittman will look to get back into the end zone in a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans have been generous to opposing receivers through two games, allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pittman also could see extra work as standout rookie tight end Tyler Warren is dealing with a toe injury and could be limited if he ultimately ends up playing. Treat Pittman as a mid-range WR4 in fantasy for Week 3.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a modest outing in his team's 29-28 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2. After an encouraging Week 1 that saw him catch six balls for 80 yards and a touchdown, Pittman caught four of his five targets for just 40 yards against the Broncos. Of course, Pittman had to contend with lockdown corner Patrick Surtain II for much of the afternoon, which may have led Daniel Jones to look elsewhere when he dropped back to pass. With a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans, Pittman is likely to operate as a decent WR4 with upside moving forward.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (glute) will host the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Pittman was listed on the injury report with a glute issue after Week 1, but he practiced fully all week and has no injury status heading into Sunday. The veteran wideout turned in a solid game in a Week 1 win over the Miami Dolphins, leading the team with 80 receiving yards and a touchdown. He might have a tougher time getting going against lockdown corner Patrick Surtain II in Week 2, however. Treat Pittman as a flex option, but don't be afraid to leave him on the bench if you have a better option due to the tough matchup.
From RotoBaller
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (glute) is dealing with a glute injury, but it didn't stop him from fully participating in practice on Wednesday. As of now, it appears he'll be good to go against a stingy Denver Broncos defense led by all-world cornerback Patrick Surtain II on Sunday. Pittman got off to a great start in catching six of eight targets for 80 yards in a blowout win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1. However, it could be tough sledding for Pittman this week if he's matched up against Surtain, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year. Surtain broke up the only pass thrown his way in a Week 1 win over the Tennessee Titans.
