Philip Rivers

Pittman saw four targets on his first ten pass routes but was invisible for much of the final three quarters in Philip Rivers' first start of the season, and his first NFL action since 2020. Pittman was tied with Josh Downs -- who caught a touchdown -- and Ameer Abdullah in targets, trailing only Tyler Warren. The Colts schemed up a few screen passes for Pittman in the first half, before the team's offense sputtered in the final two quarters. Pittman should be considered a borderline WR3 next week against the 49ers.

Abdullah was very much involved as a pass catcher, though he only ran six pass routes and saw a target on five of those routes. Jonathan Taylor, meanwhile, logged 18 routes and saw four targets from check-down artist Philip Rivers, 44, who made his first start since 2020 on Sunday against Seattle. With short-area pass catchers set to feast with Rivers under center, Abdullah could have some value in deeper formats next week against the 49ers.

It's fun that the Colts almost upset the Seahawks in QB Philip Rivers' first game since 2020. But he certainly didn't boost the fantasy fortunes of anyone around him. Rivers completed a solid 18 of his 27 throws (66.7% completions) and found Josh Downs for an 8-yard TD. But he totaled just 120 yards (4.44 yards per attempt) and added an INT as well.

In his stunning return after nearly five full seasons in retirement, Philip Rivers started at quarterback for the Colts and positioned them to win before a late collapse by Indy in an 18-16 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Seattle won without scoring a touchdown against the Philip Rivers-led Colts thanks to Myers' deadly long-range accuracy. Myers in Week 15 continued a season full of clutch kicking with a four quarter field goal to take the lead and another one to win the game after the Colts took a late lead with a 60-yard Blake Grupe bomb. Myers has now made 37 of 42 field goal tries this season and should be started in all formats next week against the Rams.
