SAN FRANCISCO (WISH) — Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has been in Indianapolis for all six seasons of his career.
This is an important offseason for Pittman and the Colts though. He enters the final season of a three-year, $70 million contract.
There is a potential out in the contract this offseason. Pittman is owed a base salary of $22 million for the 2026 season.
With the offseason looming, Pittman voiced his love for Indianapolis.
“Indy is my home,” Pittman said. “I love everything about it. I love the people there. I love this team and I just really want to do everything that I can to bring this team back to where we should be and where we were in the past, like the Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison days. I would love to be a part of that, but part of it is not in my control. I know the nature of football. It’s a business, so we’ll see what happens.”
Pittman had 80 catches for 784 yards in 2025. It was the fewest yards he’s had in a season since his rookie year in 2020. However, he set a career high in touchdowns with seven.
After leading the Colts in receiving yards in three straight years from 2021-2023, Alec Pierce has led the Colts in receiving yards for the past two seasons. Pierce is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Pittman has totaled 485 catches for 5,254 yards and 25 touchdowns in his six seasons in Indianapolis.
