Michael Pittman Jr. a Flex Option in Tough Week 2 Matchup

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.

Jameson Williams Records Long Touchdown in Week 2, Still Limited to Downfield Role?

Sunday, September 14, 10:00 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams recorded 108 receiving yards in his team's 52-21 Week 2 victory over the Chicago Bears, including a 44-yard touchdown catch. However, Williams hauled in just two passes on four targets, raising questions about whether his role will be expanded beyond being a downfield threat in 2025. The 24-year-old Williams is unquestionably explosive with the ball in his hands, averaging over 17 yards per reception for his career. Still, he's recorded just six catches on nine targets through the first two games of the season after averaging under four catches per game in 2024. Williams profiles as a boom/bust fantasy WR3/flex option until proven otherwise.
