Michael Pittman Jr. Week 11 Outlook - Colts at Jets

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Nov 16th 2024, 1:05am EST

Pittman returns to the starting lineup this week after missing last week's game with a back injury. Pittman practiced in full all week and doesn't carry an injury designation into Week 11. In Pittman's five games with Anthony Richardson starting, he hasn't had more than four receptions or 63 receiving yards in any contest. In those contests, Pittman has drawn only one red zone target and has only one weekly finish above WR40 (WR37). With Richardson under center, Pittman has had a 24% target share, 1.31 YPRR, and a 26.7% first-read share while averaging 33.4 receiving yards per game. Pittman is a must-sit against a secondary that, since Week 5, has allowed the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game and the ninth-lowest passer rating when targeted to perimeter wide receivers.
