Scouting report

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Indianapolis Colts

Michael Pittman has totaled two catches for 30 yards over the last two weeks. It doesn't matter if it's Joe Flacco or Anthony Richardson at quarterback. Pittman has struggled to find consistency for fantasy owners. It doesn't get much easier against the strong Buffalo secondary. Pittman is a borderline WR3/Flex this week.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Minnesota Vikings

Anthony Richardson's struggles last week really affected Michael Pittman's day, catching just one pass for 16 yards. Now that Joe Flacco is back under center, Pittman has a chance to become a bit more consistent. He gets the Vikings this week, who are allowing the second-most receiving yards per game to wide receivers. With a bit of a higher ceiling this week, Pittman can be considered a WR3/Flex option.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Houston Texans

Michael Pittman led the way for the Colts in Week 7 with 63 receiving yards, only the second time this season he had over 40 receiving yards. With the continued struggles of quarterback Anthony Richardson, the ceiling is capped for Pittman and the rest of the Colts offense. Add in the fact they are facing the league's 4th-best passing defense and it's an uphill battle this week for Pittman. Consider him a deeper flex this week.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Miami Dolphins

The good news is Michael Pittman found the end zone for the second game in a row. The bad news is he was held under 40 yards for the fifth time in six games. Things don't get much easier this week as the Dolphins are a top-three passing defense entering Week 7. Also, the passing game is expected to take a hit with Anthony Richardson back under center. Even when the Colts do pass, it's been Josh Downs of late being the main target. Proceed with caution this week with Pittman.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Jacksonville Jaguars

Michael Pittman bounced back in a strong way in Week 4. His 113 yards last week were 25 more than his first three weeks combined. He also did well with both Anthony Richardson and Joe Flacco at quarterback, so the change under center shouldn't affect Pittman too much, if at all. Flacco still, somehow, has a good arm and will find a way to get the ball to Pittman. He's a WR2/Flex option this week against the Jaguars.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Colts' struggles in the passing game have hurt the fantasy value of one Michael Pittman. He has yet to hit 40 receiving yards in a game this season. The good news is he leads the Colts with 20 targets. He does have to deal with the stingy Steelers defense this week. Couple that all together, are you're looking at a flex play at best for Pittman, not something we thought we'd say about him before the season.

IND WR Michael Pittman Jr. - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Chicago Bears

The early struggles of Anthony Richardson have affected the early fantasy output of Michael Pittman. He has been targeted 15 times but only has seven catches for 52 yards. He could see a dose of Bears CB Jaylon Johnson. Josh Downs could be back this week to take some defensive pressure off of Pittman, but until we see the Colts pick things up offensively, Pittman is a Flex option at best.
