Michael Pittman Jr. Finishes With Five Catches
2 years agoIndianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. was expected to be the focal point of this offense heading into this Week 5 matchup. The Colts were without star running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle), which means Pittman would be their next best player on offense. Sadly for fantasy managers, the Broncos secondary was able to contain Pittman fairly well on Thursday. He finished with five receptions on eight targets for 59 yards in the win. It wasn't the game everyone expected from Pittman, but at least it wasn't a complete bust. Hopefully things will get better, but Pittman probably won't be anything more than a low-end WR2 going forward.
