Pittman caught two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman was limited to two catches for the second straight week, and he finished with fewer than 40 receiving yards for the fourth game in a row to end the season. The wide receiver was able to reel in 80 of 111 targets for 784 yards and a career-high seven touchdowns over 17 regular-season contests, but he ended the year having gone without a score in the final six contests. With Alec Pierce set to enter the offseason as a free agent, Pittman may begin next season as the Colts' undisputed No. 1 wideout.

Pittman recorded two receptions on three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman's disappearance from the Colts' offense continued Sunday, as he finished tied for fourth on the team in targets with Mo Alie-Cox. His impact during the competitive portion of the game was even more limited than the box score indicates, as he tallied a 12-yard catch while the Jaguars were in prevent defense in the final moments. Pittman missed a few plays early in the second quarter after suffering a calf injury, which could complicate his outlook for a Week 18 matchup against the Texans, given that the Colts have been eliminated from playoff contention. Even if Pittman does suit up, he's been held to 35 yards or fewer in five of his last six contests.

Pittman (calf) returned to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman exited the contest for a spell after suffering a calf injury, but the wideout is back in action Sunday to reclaim his key role in the Colts' Week 17 WR corps.

Pittman was forced out of Sunday's game against the Jaguars with a calf injury.
EDGE Analysis
Before that, Pittman caught one of his two targets for four yards. While he's sidelined, Alec Pierce, Josh Downs, Ashton Dulin and Laquon Treadwell are available to handle wideout reps for the Colts.

Pittman brought in four of five targets for 32 yards in the Colts' 48-27 loss to the 49ers on Monday night.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman tied with Alec Pierce for second in receptions on the night for the Colts, but he continued an extended stretch of middling production. Pittman has now recorded Monday's yardage tally or fewer in five of his last six contests, a stretch where he's played with three different quarterbacks. Pittman's quest to snap out of his funk gets another tough challenge in Week 17, as the Jaguars drop in on the Colts on Sunday.

Pittman had three receptions on five targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Philip Rivers' first start with the Colts in 2025 did not generate any fantasy stars from the receiving corps. Pittman did lead all Indianapolis wide receivers in targets and yardage, but that is not saying much in a game where the offense was held to 120 passing yards. Pittman's value understandably dropped off following the news of QB Daniel Jones (Achilles) missing the rest of the season, and Rivers coming out of retirement may not be able to salvage it. The 27-year-old Pittman carries more value in deep and PPR formats for next Monday's tilt against the 49ers.

Pittman recorded nine receptions on 12 targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 36-19 loss to the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman had been on the wrong end of the target distribution among Colts' pass catchers in recent weeks, but he rebounded to lead the team in opportunity in Week 14. He was targeted primarily in short areas of the field by Riley Leonard, leading to a modest yardage total, though he did manage a long 24-yard catch shortly after halftime. Pittman nearly had an even bigger day, as he appeared to have a 16-yard touchdown that was ultimately nullified by a borderline pass interference call. While this was an encouraging performance, Pittman could struggle down the stretch with Daniel Jones (Achilles) out for the rest of the year.

Pittman recorded one reception on four targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Daniel Jones distributed targets very evenly between the Colts' top pass catchers, with five players earning at least four targets and none more than six. Pittman failed to even deliver on his limited opportunity, with his only catch coming late in the second quarter. While he has been a reliable target for Daniel Jones this season, this was Pittman's worst yardage total of the season and his third straight contest with fewer than 30 yards.

Pittman brought in five of eight targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 23-20 overtime loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran receiver tied with Tyler Warren for the team lead in receptions and set the pace in targets, although Pittman finished with his second consecutive sub-30-yard tally. The sixth-year pro did find the end zone for the seventh time this season on a six-yard grab in the first quarter, and Pittman has now drawn at least eight targets in four of the last five contests. The veteran wideout draws a tough matchup again in Week 13, as a talented Texans defense drops in for a key divisional clash.

Pittman brought in both targets for 19 yards in the Colts' 31-25 overtime win over the Falcons in Berlin on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tyler Warren and Alec Pierce served as Daniel Jones' top two targets Sunday, leaving Pittman in an unfamiliar tertiary role. The veteran's yardage total was a season-low figure, as was his target tally, but the quiet performance can very comfortably be labeled an outlier considering Pittman's typical body of work. Pittman should be in line for a much busier afternoon in a Week 12 road showdown against the Chiefs following a Week 11 bye.
