Michael Pittman Jr.

Pittman missed Week 2 with a quad injury, but he returned in Week 3 without a setback. Through two games, Pittman has 17-193-1 receiving on 22 targets, and in two games against the Titans last year he had 16-154-2 receiving on 27 targets with 1-5-0 rushing. Pittman has a great matchup against perimeter CBs Kristian Fulton and Terrance Mitchell, who respectively have allowed 1.19 and 1.20 yards per coverage snap for their careers. Pittman is a fantasy WR1.

Michael Pittman Jr. sees team high nine targets in Colts win Sunday

Michael Pittman Jr. caught eight of his nine targets for 72 yards on Sunday en rout to the Colts' 20-17 win over the Chiefs.

Fantasy Impact

Pittman Jr. bounced back after missing Week 2 to show managers he will remain as consistent as they come at receiver in PPR leagues. The Colts' star wideout has now seen 22 targets over his first two games, having caught 17 of them while going for 193 yards on the season thus far. The 24-year-old is clearly one of the biggest threats in the Colts offense outside of Jonathan Taylor, and he will continue to garner the vast majority of Matt Ryan's attention on a game-to-game basis. Pittman Jr. should plug in as a WR1 going into a Week 4 matchup against a Titans team that just gave up 303 air yards to the Raiders.
