Huddle Up: Although Pittman's blocking won't earn him any fantasy points, it should ensure his status as the team's No. 2 receiver. Depending on the quarterback situation in Pittsburgh, Pittman could be a WR3 in 2026, especially in PPR formats.

Huddle Up: Pittman will be in an offense where the quarterback is still up in the air, and he will be fighting for targets alongside D.K. Metcalf. For now, he remains up in the air but should at least have a floor as a WR3 or flex spot in your lineup.

Huddle Up: It is almost stunning that the best the Colts could do in a trade involving a 28-year-old receiver with four 80-catch seasons on his resume is a late-round pick swap. It is equally hard to believe that the Colts likely made a rushed trade so that they could make Alec Pierce the ninth-highest paid receiver in the league (in terms of annual average value). Pittman's departure paves the way - at least until the draft - for Tyler Warren and Josh Downs to see their target shares increase. Meanwhile, Pierce's contract almost locks him as a player that Indy will likely ask to assume more of the short and intermediate routes that Pittman handled throughout his time with the Colts.

Huddle Up: Pittman will be starting opposite DK Metcalf next season and should see a handful of targets each game. He can be a No. 3 receiver in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Pittman's 2025 was solid by all accounts, finishing as the WR18 in fantasy football last season with 80 receptions, 784 yards and a career-high seven touchdowns. Heading to Pittsburgh, Pittman will likely see a dip in passing volume in his new location. With DK Metcalf fully entrenched as the top receiver for the Steelers, a WR2 on the Steelers hasn't been too fruitful for fantasy purposes. Going into 2026, Pittman is more of a WR4 with some upside because of his skills and production through the years.

Huddle Up: Pittman really went downhill working with Philip Rivers, posting just nine receptions for 74 yards on 13 targets in the final three games. He really struggled in the fantasy playoffs and championship games in most leagues. He'll look to finish up the regular season strong in Week 18 against the Houston Texans.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if Pittman will be able to return. He is the top receiver for the Colts when healthy and can be at least a flex option in leagues.

Huddle Up: In two weeks with Philip Rivers at the helm, Pittman has caught seven passes for 58 yards. Outside of a 9-79-0 effort against Jacksonville, Pittman has finished with less than 35 yards in each of the last six games. Depending on who else you have on your roster, you should give strong consideration to benching Pittman this week given his lack of production since the team traveled to Berlin back in Week 10. If you want to roll the dice, you could use Pittman as a flex.

Huddle Up: Pittman was humming along early in the season with Daniel Jones, but he has struggled in the past five games, going for 27 or fewer receiving yards in four of the outings. He remains worth a look as a WR4 or flex fantasy option in PPR leagues, with lesser appeal in standard play. He just cannot be trusted lately.

Huddle Up: Since grabbing 24 balls for 263 yards and two touchdowns from Week 7-9, Pittman had eight catches for 59 yards with one touchdown in his previous three games. With Jones done for the season, Pittman's strong WR3 or flex option in most formats is in question, but he hooked up often with Riley Leonard in this one.
