Michael PittmanWRPIT

Matt Harmon identifies Pittman as a reliable layup receiver with consistent target share expectations. There is talk that Pittman may be used more in the slot than he was previously with Indianapolis; he and Bernard can both function as 50/50 slot/Z receivers while DK Metcalf is the clear X of the room. Pittman is described as a great fit for Aaron Rodgers' current stage of career as a quick-game option, fitting well with Mike McCarthy's West Coast scheme and 11 personnel usage, and is praised for his catch-point ability. Harmon specifically highlights Pittman as "especially" reliable among the Steelers' receiving options alongside Bernard as receivers "who are going to be in the right places at the right time," suggesting he'll maintain consistent target volume.
