Brandon Pettigrew returns to practice for Lions, remains solid Week 6 fantasy play
Detroit Lions tight end Brandon Pettigrew returned to practice on Wednesday. We break down the fantasy implications.


Fantasy Impact: There was never any real concern here. Pettigrew’s season is off to a solid start, especially in PPR formats. He is the second leading receiver on a team that still has to throw the ball to make things happen. Pettigrew is a fringe No. 1 tight end this week against the Eagles and should be valued more in PPR leagues.
