Michael Pittman Jr. Quiet in Week 6 Win Over Arizona

Tuesday, October 14, 7:19 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a slow performance in a 31-27 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6. Pittman caught just two of his three targets for 20 yards in the close win, breaking a five-game streak where he caught at least four passes or a touchdown. The veteran took a backseat to Tyler Warren and Josh Downs against Arizona, but he had been operating as the Colts' top wide receiver in the five previous games before Week 6's win over the Cardinals. Pittman will now look to bounce back in Week 7's road matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. He can be deployed as a WR3 in fantasy for that contest.

Nico Collins Remains a Strong Wide Receiver to Build Around

Saturday, October 4, 10:05 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins didn't find the end zone in last week's win over the Titans, but he still tied for the team lead with six targets, finishing with four catches for a team-high 79 receiving yards. He remains the go-to option for C.J. Stroud, and the duo will look to connect early and often while trying to get a second straight win this week against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are banged up and have struggled on defense so far this season. They have given up the third-most fantasy points in the NFL to wide receivers, including three wide receiver scores last week against the Chiefs. The Texans' offense scuffled early this season, but Collins could help them continue to find their stride this week. He's the WR7 this week in RotoBaller's rankings and remains a strong top-line receiver to start every week in standard formats.
