Michael Pittman Jr. Week 12 Outlook - Lions at Colts

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 21st 2024, 1:05pm EST

Since Week 4, Pittman hasn't had more than 63 receiving yards in any game. He hasn't hit double-digit fantasy points or seen a red zone target since Week 6. It's been a tough season for Pittman, and he has struggled to stay healthy. Pittman has a 21.1% target share, 1.51 YPRR, and a 23.5% first-read share. Since Week 6, the Lions have had the fourth-highest rate of single-high (60%). Against single-high, Pittman has seen his YPRR drop to 1.37 and his first-read share fall to 21.5%. He's a must-sit this week against a secondary that, since Week 6, has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game and receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
