Michael Pittman Jr. 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook: Expect More of the Same
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is very talented, but he has never entered the conversation as an elite wide receiver. Early in his career, Pittman hovered around WR20 before turning in a WR13 finish in 2023. That season was primarily built on volume, as Pittman only recorded four touchdowns on 109 receptions. With a chronic back injury and an inaccurate quarterback in Anthony Richardson in 2024, Pittman recorded just 808 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Richardson is in pole position to win the starting gig once again. Unless he has made huge strides this year, Pittman could end up in wide receiver purgatory once again. The Colts' other option under center is Daniel Jones who could support Pittman as a low-end WR2, but that is likely about his ceiling. Luckily, the concerns about Pittman are factored into his ADP. He is currently not even on the flex radar in redraft formats. RotoBaller currently has Pittman ranked as the WR45, which is about where he should be valued. He is worth a flyer given his talent and the potential for improvement from Richardson or a move to Jones.
