Who Should I Start? Michael Pittman Jr. or Malik Nabers

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a quiet performance in Week 10's 31-25 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. Pittman caught both of his two targets for only 19 yards in the win. Week 10 was a rare game where Pittman wasn't the Colts' most productive receiver as the team leaned on Alec Pierce, who caught four of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. Pittman has now caught 54 passes for 580 yards and six touchdowns in 10 games for the Colts this season. He will be on bye in Week 11 before a Week 12 road matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) had surgery on Tuesday to fix the torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, and he "should be ready" for the start of next season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Nabers suffered his season-ending knee injury in the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but he just now had surgery after doctors had to wait for the swelling in his knee to dissipate. Barring setbacks with his rehab and recovery in the offseason, the 22-year-old former first-rounder should be good to go for the start of the 2026 season next fall, although fantasy managers might have some reservations about rolling with a receiver coming off a major knee repair as a high-end WR1. Before his injury, though, Nabers had displayed his game-changing abilities with 271 yards and two scores on 18 receptions in four games. His long-term fantasy ceiling should be higher going forward now that rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart looks like the real deal.
