Michael Pittman Jr. injury update is good news for Colts fans, fantasy football players

Michael Pittman Jr. is a key piece of the Indianapolis Colts' offense.

Resurgent QB Daniel Jones has come to rely on Pittman as a big target as the Colts have gotten off to a 7-2 start to the season.

Pittman showed up on Wednesday's injury report, though, having not practiced. It raised concern about his status for Week 10.

That seemingly can mostly go away now. 

Pittman was back out at practice on Thursday, according to The Athletic's James Boyd.

The injury was listed as a glute issue for Pittman. As long as he practices on Friday, there should be no worries for his Week 10 status.

Pittman is coming off a week in which he had nine catches for 115 yards.

The tall wideout has caught a touchdown in six separate games.

He also has at least four catches in all but one game. And over the last three weeks, Pittman has a combined 24 catches.

If Pittman were to miss time, Alec Pierce and Josh Downs would likely both see more targets.

But right now it seems the arrow is pointing up and Pittman is likely to be out there in Week 10 as the Colts try to bounce back from a loss.
