Michael Pittman Jr. questionable for Steelers’ Week 2 clash with Patriots
Pittman’s practice involvement declined across the week, leaving his availability for Sunday’s game uncertain and described as unlikely.
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is listed as questionable for Sunday’s Week 2 game against the New England Patriots, with his availability described as unlikely by Yahoo Sports.
Pittman was limited in Wednesday’s practice before missing Thursday and Friday sessions. The Steelers have not confirmed his final playing status, and the supplied report does not identify an injury.
The receiver joined Pittsburgh after six seasons with the Indianapolis Colts from 2020 to 2025. Yahoo Sports credits him with 5,312 receiving yards and 25 touchdowns during that period.
Pittman led the Steelers with 58 receiving yards in his debut against Atlanta. If he is unavailable against New England, DK Metcalf, Germie Bernard and Roman Wilson could take on increased roles, while tight end Pat Freiermuth may also see more opportunities.
