According to Indianapolis Colts beat writer Zak Keefer, wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is “primed to break out” in 2022.
Pittman has been one of the standouts of Indy’s training camp, looking the part of a true alpha wideout. The 24-year-old recently gave the Lions defense fits during a joint practice, with Keefer saying, “Pittman caught everything: crossers, screens, posts down the middle, deep shots on the sideline. He was a problem.”
Pittman is coming off a productive 2021 campaign in which he recorded 88 catches for 1,082 yards and six touchdowns. He achieved that production despite the Colts boasting one of the league’s most run-heavy offenses, in addition to the struggles of quarterback Carson Wentz.
