Colts WR Alec Pierce (concussion) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Titans. He leaves behind 4.1 targets per game, giving WRs Michael Pittman and Josh Downs slight boosts. WR Adonai Mitchell figures to soak up most of Pierce's snaps but is only viable in DFS tournaments.
Colts WR Michael Pittman (back) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He should be ready to roll for this weekend's game vs. the Titans. Pittman is just a WR4 with QB Anthony Richardson at the controls.
Colts WRs Michael Pittman (back) and Alec Pierce (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Pittman has been playing through this back issue for a while now, although he was a full-go at practice all last week. We're still tentatively expecting him to play vs. the Titans this weekend but will keep you posted on his status. Pierce is unlikely to clear protocol in time to play on Sunday.
Colts WR Alec Pierce (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. We don't have any details on his foot injury. WR Josh Downs (shoulder) is not expected to play vs. the Patriots this weekend, while WR Ashton Dulin (ankle) also missed Wednesday's practice. That leaves Michael Pittman, Adonai Mitchell, and Anthony Gould as the three healthy WRs on Indianapolis' active roster.
Colts WR Josh Downs is considered "week to week" with the shoulder injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Lions and is a "long shot" to play against the Patriots this weekend, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "But the belief is he did not suffer a major injury," Rapoport adds.
Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. led the team with 6 receptions and 96 yards in Sunday's loss to the Lions. That accounted for 54.5% of QB Anthony Richardson's completions and 55.8% of his passing yardage for the game. It also marked just the second time all season that Pittman has exceeded 63 yards in a game this season.
Colts WR Michael Pittman is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Lions with a shoulder injury. It's a new injury for Pittman, who's been playing through a bad back and also suffered a finger injury earlier this season. We'll update his status when we know more. His absence should mean more snaps for WR A.D. Mitchell.
Update: Pittman returned to the game.
Colts WR Michael Pittman (back) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. With QB Anthony Richardson back under center, though, Pittman is no better than a WR4. He’s finished outside the top 50 WRs in PPR points in four of five games with Richardson this season.
Colts WR Michael Pittman (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Jets, but Pittman is no better than a WR4 with QB Anthony Richardson back at the controls. Rookie Adonai Mitchell figures to revert to the No. 4 spot on the depth chart with Pittman back.
Colts QB Anthony Richardson has been announced as the starter by HC Shane Steichen. After spending two weeks as the back-up to QB Joe Flacco, Richardson is back in the starting role. The Colts are currently 4-6 and in desperation mode to get back into the playoff hunt in the AFC
The Colts have ruled WR Michael Pittman Jr. out for Sunday's game against the Bills. He's officially listed with back and finger injuries and has missed practice all week. The back issue seems to be what's keeping him out this week, though. Pittman returned to last week's game after dislocating the finger.
Colts WR Michael Pittman dislocated a finger on his left hand in the fourth quarter of Sunday night's loss to the Vikings, he told the media on Wednesday. “(The finger) was like a right angle to my pinky," Pittman explained. “I knew it wasn’t right so I was like, ‘Hey, can you fix this?’ And (the medical staff) popped it back in for me." Pittman returned for the final drive of the Vikings game and is fully expected to play against the Bills this weekend. But it's another issue for a guy who's been battling a back injury for the past month. Pittman has totaled just eight catches for 128 yards and one TD over his last four games. He shouldn't be considered more than a lower-end WR3 right now.
Colts WRs Josh Downs (toe), Michael Pittman (back), and Alec Pierce (shoulder) are active for today’s game vs. the Dolphins. We’re expecting them to play their usual roles as the team’s top three WRs. But their projections take significant hits with QB Anthony Richardson back at the helm. See where the Colts land in the Week 7 WR Rankings.
Colts WRs Josh Downs (toe), Michael Pittman (back), and Alec Pierce (shoulder) are all expected to play vs. the Dolphins today, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. All three guys are listed as questionable. With Anthony Richardson back under center, no Colt WR sits inside the top 40 of the Week 7 WR Rankings.
Colts WRs Josh Downs (toe), Michael Pittman (back), and Alec Pierce (shoulder) are questionable for this weekend's game against the Dolphins. Downs played through his toe issue last week and got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. He should be fine. Pittman was a full-go on Thursday but did not practice on Wednesday or Friday. His status is a bit murkier, but we're projecting him to play. Pierce should also be available after putting in a full practice on Friday. All three guys are less appealing in fantasy lineups this week with the return of QB Anthony Richardson.
Colts QB Anthony Richardson (oblique) will start this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins, HC Shane Steichen confirmed on Friday. Richardson put in a full week of practice and should be nearing 100% at this point. Consider him a risk/reward QB1 play against a Dolphins squad that ranks 16th in pass defense DVOA and 31st in run defense DVOA. Richardson's return is a significant downgrade for WRs Josh Downs and Michael Pittman.
