BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR1
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. comes into Sunday's meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals with two consecutive 100-yard games, including last week's contest in which he was targeted 16 times, hauling in 11 passes for 105 yards and a score. The week before, he finished with 107 receiving yards in a win over the Buccaneers.
Pittman is one of the most reliable receivers in fantasy football right now because of his volume. He's had at least 12 targets in four of the last five games, with an average of 12.4 targets per game over that span. He's also averaged nine receptions per game over that frame.
Quarterback Gardner Minshew has shown that he wants to get the ball to Pittman, something that makes Pittman a solid fantasy WR1 play. This week, he's set to face a Cincinnati Bengals defense that allows the sixth-most passing yards per game in the NFL, so fantasy managers should have no hesitation when it comes to putting Pittman in their starting lineup. He could easily end Week 14 with his third consecutive 100-yard receiving game based on how often Minshew has been throwing the ball Pittman's way.
