BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (back) has logged two straight days without a practice, and though he's technically the team's WR1, he hasn't been playing like it. In a bizarre sequence of events, it was reported a few weeks ago that he was being considered for injured reserve. However, he's played in every game since then.
No sight of #Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) at practice. He did not practice yesterday.

It could be that the team is giving him more rest to manage his injury, or that he's headed for an absence of at least a few games. Either way, even if he does play, he's probably not worth putting in fantasy lineups. He scored under three PPR fantasy points in each of his last two games.

Does it limit him?
“I’m not gonna make excuses for it. If I’m out there, I’m out there.”
No excuses, so one catch the last two games?

He hasn't looked like himself on the field, and he hasn't played like fantasy managers know he's capable of playing either. It's probably the wiser move for the team to sideline him for some time.
