Michael Pittman Jr. A WR2/3 Option In Week 8

Michael Pittman Jr. A WR2/3 Option In Week 8

one year ago

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is coming off another productive outing in the team's Week 7 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Pittman was quiet for most of the game but was on the receiving end of a 75-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Pittman was receiving one of the highest target shares in the league in the first few weeks of the season but is now splitting more targets with the emergence of rookie wide receiver Josh Downs. The Colts host the New Orleans Saints in Week 8, who have allowed the sixth least points per game this season. While it may be a tough matchup for Pittman and the Colts, he can still be included in lineups as a WR2/3 option with his volume.
