Where'd the shoulder come from? I read he started having symptoms after they landed.

The Colts listed the shoulder injury along with the concussion on the injury report starting with the first day of actual practice (Thursday). The comments on the injury report from Wednesday were just estimations because it was only a walkthrough. I don't think many teams spend too much time/effort on the walkthrough / estimation injury reports. Once Pittman initially cleared the concussion protocol, they still listed him as Questionable with the shoulder injury.

But yes, the reason why he is now being ruled out for tomorrow's game is because concussion symptoms re-appeared.

(vs. RAIDERS, 12/31)


In addition to his 5 catches for 46 yards, Pittman made a CRUCIAL play of falling on a Jonathan Taylor fumble when the Colts were deep in Raiders territory in the 2nd quarter.

I hope they lock him up on the first day it can happen. Yeah, I know they could do it any time, but if they are waiting until the season ends, sign him the Monday that all the bad coaches get fired.

(vs. TEXANS, 1/06)


Pittman finished one hell of a season with another good game in the season-finale ...... his final numbers were 109 REC, 1,152 YD's, 4 TD's, and 10.6 YPC.
