Michael Pittman Jr. Returning To Practice
4 years agoIndianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that rookie wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (calf) is returning to practice on Wednesday. Indianapolis will now have 21 days to activate Pittman from Injured Reserve. The USC product could return to face the Lions this weekend, but he'd likely play limited snaps if that was the case. The 23-year-old had nine receptions on 12 targets for 73 yards in three games before going down with injury. The Colts haven't had much volume in the passing game with Philip Rivers under center so far this year, but Pittman is a big-bodied receiver capable of making some noise down the stretch if he becomes a big part of the offensive attack. He's worth a speculative pickup in deeper leagues right now, but he should already be owned in all dynasty/keeper setups.
