Who Should I Start? Michael Pittman Jr. or Amon-Ra St. Brown

Friday, September 29, 10:55 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is coming off another strong performance in Week 3, in which he caught nine passes for 77 yards. Pittman Jr. has been the No. 1 option in this Colts passing attack, receiving over ten targets a week in each of his first three games. The third-year-receiver will face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4, a secondary that has allowed an average of only 181 passing yards this season, good for seventh best in the league. Despite the tougher matchup, Pittman Jr.'s target share sets him up as a solid PPR WR2 option with a slightly lower ceiling than in previous weeks.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught five of his seven targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in the Week 4 win over the Green Bay Packers. It wasn't a nuclear target or reception game for the third-year wideout, but he ultimately delivered for fantasy managers with the end zone trip. When the Lions are forced into pass-happier game scripts, he has high-end WR1 upside in all matchups. Continue to start him with confidence.
