Colts' Michael Pittman Jr. Back at Practice Ahead of Week 10 in Berlin

His return to the field signals improved odds to play, pending Friday's evaluation.

Overview

  • Pittman was a Wednesday DNP with a glute injury, then practiced Thursday, per The Athletic’s James Boyd, with his participation level not yet specified.
  • His status for the Falcons game in Berlin hinges on Friday’s session, with reports indicating he should be on track if he practices again.
  • He logged nine receptions for 115 yards in the Week 9 loss to the Steelers and was sore after the game.
  • Through Week 9 he leads Indianapolis with 52 catches for 561 yards and six touchdowns, and he has missed only six games in six NFL seasons.
  • If he sits, Alec Pierce, Josh Downs and tight end Tyler Warren are projected to see more targets, as the Colts’ eventful week also included a trade for CB Sauce Gardner.
