Perfect fit for Philip Rivers
One of the reasons that Pittman Jr. is such a good fit for the offense is because of who is under center for the Colts for at least the 2020 season. Rivers has long had a big-bodied wide receiver on the boundary to target both vertically and on the intermediate routes.
Pittman Jr. brings size (6’4, 223), length (32.5″ arms) and great athleticism for his size (6.96 in the three-cone). He won’t win with long speed but his 4.52 in the 40-yard dash is nothing to frown about at his size. Pittman Jr. wins with physicality and above the rim while showing off impressive athleticism and should be able to make an immediate impact.
