Michael Pittman Jr. has had a disappointing season, scoring single-digit PPR fantasy points in six of nine games and struggling with a back injury that sidelined him for Week 10. His recent performance has been lackluster, with only two catches for 30 yards in his last two games. Despite being expected to start upon his return, his effectiveness is in question, especially with the emergence of rookie Adonai Mitchell and Alec Pierce, which could further diminish his role. Pittman is currently averaging just 3 catches and 40 yards per game, making him a risky fantasy option as he has not been a reliable contributor this season.
