Who Should I Start? Michael Pittman Jr. or Emeka Egbuka

Saturday, September 13, 8:06 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (glute) will host the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Pittman was listed on the injury report with a glute issue after Week 1, but he practiced fully all week and has no injury status heading into Sunday. The veteran wideout turned in a solid game in a Week 1 win over the Miami Dolphins, leading the team with 80 receiving yards and a touchdown. He might have a tougher time getting going against lockdown corner Patrick Surtain II in Week 2, however. Treat Pittman as a flex option, but don't be afraid to leave him on the bench if you have a better option due to the tough matchup.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka got his NFL career started off with a bang last week. The rookie wideout hauled in four of his six targets for 67 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Atlanta Falcons. He delivered a beautiful 30-yard score in the second quarter. Egbuka found the end zone again with a 25-yard grab as the game-winning score. It's tough to have a much better debut than that right there. He figures to continue having a significant role in the offense with Chris Godwin (ankle) and Jalen McMillan (neck) both out. In PPR formats, Egbuka should be viewed as a low-end WR2 for the upcoming Week 2 matchup against the Houston Texans.
