Michael Pittman Jr. fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2025). Should you start or sit Michael Pittman Jr. for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ team leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: The Indianapolis Colts enjoyed an impressive start to the 2025 season. In their Week 1 victory, their offense, led by former Giants QB Daniel Jones, looked unstoppable as they scored 33 points against the Dolphins.
During this contest, top wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. did most of the damage through the air. With Jones under center, Pittman was able to bring in six of his eight targets for 80 yards and a touchdown. This was a much-needed game for Pittman, who struggled in 2024 due to their inconsistent QB play as he tallied just 808 yards and three scores.
However, in 2023, Pittman totaled 1,125 yards (a career-high) with four touchdowns and an impressive 109 receptions.
While the USC product has a tough matchup ahead of him, facing the Denver secondary that shut down the Tennessee passing game in Week 1, Pittman carries high-floor WR3 value in 12+ team leagues. He should be able to be Jones's go-to option in the passing attack.
However, managers should expect Jones to take a slight step back facing a much tougher defense, which will limit Pittman's ceiling.
