BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR41
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is the WR32 for the year, averaging 8.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. The former USC star has averaged 6.8 targets and 11.3 fantasy points per game over the past four weeks, scoring 11 or more in all but one contest.
However, Pittman is like every other Colts’ wide receiver. His fantasy value takes a significant hit with Anthony Richardson under center. Last week, the veteran wide receiver had 7.8 fantasy points with Richardson. By comparison, Pittman averaged 12.5 fantasy points per game in the three contests with Joe Flacco.
Pittman missed practice on Wednesday with an ongoing back injury. Thankfully, the star wide receiver returned to practice on Thursday and is ready for Sunday’s matchup against the Houston Texans.

Fantasy players can start the veteran as a flex option in deeper leagues. Unfortunately, Pittman’s fantasy upside is limited with Richardson under center.
