Who Should I Start? Michael Pittman Jr. or Jaylen Waddle

Saturday, October 11, 8:59 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is off to a hot start in 2025. The veteran wide receiver has now caught 26 passes for 273 yards and four touchdowns thus far. Pittman will look to keep it going in Week 6's home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have been solid against the pass this season, allowing the 20th-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts in five contests. That being said, Pittman has emerged as Indy's top wide receiver this season as Daniel Jones seems to prefer him over Josh Downs when dropping back to pass. Fantasy gamers can trust Pittman as a solid WR2 heading into Week 6's slate.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will have an opportunity to step up as the team's top receiver the rest of the season after Tyreek Hill (knee) was lost for the season in Week 4. In Week 5, Waddle delivered a big game, hauling in six of his nine targets for 110 yards and a touchdown against the Panthers. He set season highs in catches, targets, and yards, while scoring his third touchdown in the last four weeks. Waddle and the Dolphins will look to bounce back from last week's loss to Carolina, as they host the Chargers. The Chargers' defense has done a good job against receivers this season, but Deebo Samuel did light them up for eight catches, 96 yards, and a touchdown last week. Waddle should be primed for another high-volume game and is the WR17 in RotoBaller's Week 6 rankings.
