Colts' Michael Pittman Jr. Clears Concussion Protocol, Expected to Play vs. Raiders

Pittman's return crucial for Colts' playoff push as they aim to win the South Division for the first time since 2014.

Indianapolis Colts receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has cleared concussion protocol and is expected to play against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
Pittman was cleared a week ago, but showed symptoms of a concussion a day later and was ruled out of last week’s 29-10 loss to the Falcons.
Pittman went into concussion protocol after a helmet-to-helmet hit by Pittsburgh safety Damontae Kazee in the Colts’ 30-13 victory on Dec. 16. Kazee was ejected from the game.
Pittman has 99 catches for 1,062 yards and four touchdowns this season. The Colts need Pittman back for their push to the playoffs.
The Colts sit as the No. 7 seed in the AFC, but still have a chance to win the South Division for the first time since 2014.
