Pascal will face increased competition for playing time with the Colts taking Michael Pittman in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
EDGE Analysis
Pittman should immediately push for a starting role in three-wide sets for Indianapolis after catching 101 of 136 targets for 1,275 yards (9.4 YPT) and 11 touchdowns last season at USC. Pascal took advantage of a number of injuries in the receiving corps last season to lead the team in receiving yards (607) while reaching the end zone five times. However, he could be used this season in a more limited capacity with Parris Campbell also set to compete for a larger role after an injury-plagued rookie season.

Pascal signed a one-year contract extension with the Colts on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal was scheduled to become an exclusive rights free agent in March, but his extension ensures he'll remain in the fold for Indianapolis through the 2020 season. The 25-year-old took advantage of a number of injuries to the Colts' pass catchers to lead the team in receiving yards (607) while reaching the end zone five times.

Pascal had just one reception for six yards on three targets in Sunday's win over Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
The Colts didn't throw many passes (Jacoby Brissett was just 14 of 27 for 119 yards passing) due to a large lead gained on special teams and via the run. Pascal still started and played on 50 of the offense's 64 snaps. He should get more work next week at Jacksonville.

Pascal caught four of six targets for 44 yards in Monday night's 34-7 loss to the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal led the Colts in catches and receiving yards despite top wideout T.Y. Hilton returning from injury to top the team in targets. Truthfully, though, Hilton didn't produce much at all prior to Indy's final offensive drive, and it was Pascal who went for a team-long, 24-yard reception earlier. Even with Hilton back -- and potentially on a snap count, at that -- Pascal should remain rather involved going into the final two weeks of the season, keeping his value relatively stable.

Pascal caught five of nine targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-35 loss to Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal has stepped up with T.Y. Hilton (calf) sidelined. After setting a new career high with 109 receiving yards last week, Pascal pulled down his fifth touchdown of the season from 12 yards out in the third quarter. As long as Hilton remains out, Pascal is an enticing plug-in option at the wide receiver position.

Pascal hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 109 yards in the team's Week 13 loss to the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal leapt up the depth chart with T.Y. Hilton (calf) and Parris Campbell (hand) both ruled out prior to the game. Pascal took advantage of Chester Rogers' (knee) exit from the game after just two plays by recording several big grabs -- including three receptions of 20 yards or more and another that went for 19 yards. Pascal has shown flashes of brilliance without other key Colts offensive weapons around, so his outlook for Week 14 against the Buccaneers will likely depend on the health of Hilton, Campbell and Rogers.

Pascal logged 59 of a possible 67 snap on offense in Thursday's 20-17 loss to the Texans but did not catch his only target in the game.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal's 88 percent snap share was tops among the Colts' wideouts Thursday, but that's because the team limited T.Y. Hilton to 25 snaps in his return from a calf injury. The team's next game isn't until Dec. 1 against the Titans, at which point Pascal could possibly have some added competition for playing time, with both Parris Campbell (hand) and Devin Funchess (collarbone) candidates to return to action in Week 13.

Pascal hauled in two of his six targets for 17 yards in the team's Week 11 win against the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal led the team with six targets but his lone significant reception came on the team's second drive when he turned a short pass into a 14-yard gain. Though Pascal has struggled to build on his Week 9 breakout against the Steelers, he has earned at least six targets in each of his past three games. With the Colts playing their Week 12 contest against the Texans on Thursday, it's unlikely that T.Y. Hilton (groin), Parris Campbell (hand) and Devin Funchess (collarbone) will return. That should clear the way for Pascal to see plenty of volume once again.

Pascal hauled in two of seven targets for 26 yards in the team's Week 10 loss to the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal was the victim of a poor performance by Brian Hoyer, as he finished tied for second on the team with seven targets. He also accounted for the team's longest play from scrimmage, coming on a 23-yard reception during the team's first drive of the game. If T.Y. Hilton (calf) remains out and Jacoby Brissett (knee) is able to return, Pascal could be in a good position to bounce back in Week 11 against the Jaguars.

Pascal recorded five receptions on six targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Week 9 against the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Pascal entered the game among a committee of receivers that hoped to replace T.Y. Hilton's (calf) production. He did so successfully, leading the team in targets, receptions and yards. In the process, he showed rapport with both Jacoby Brissett (knee) and Brian Hoyer, a performance highlighted by a 14-yard score late in the second quarter. However, he also connected for long receptions of 17, 18 and 19 yards to turn in his second-highest yardage total of the season. While Pascal has seen inconsistent volume throughout the campaign, he should be among the top Colts' receivers so long as Hilton remains sidelined.
