Remains without target in 2024
Pascal wasn't targeted while playing two of the Cardinals' 57 snaps on offense in Monday's 17-15 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Pascal has suited up in each of Arizona's first seven games, but he's played double-digit snaps on offense just once, when he got on the field for 10 plays in a Week 5 win over the 49ers. Though he cleared 600 receiving yards in two seasons with Indianapolis earlier in his career, Pascal looks to be valued mostly for his special-teams contributions at this stage. He recorded just four receptions for 19 yards over 14 games in his first season with Arizona in 2023, and he has yet to draw a target…read more

Musters career-worst output
Pascal tallied four catches (on 15 targets) for 19 yards and no touchdowns in 14 games during the 2023 campaign.
Analysis: In a receiving corps devoid of size outside of rookie third-rounder Michael Wilson (6-foot-2, 213 pounds), the 6-foot-2, 219-pound Pascal had a chance for a decent role in a Cardinals offense otherwise dominated by the diminutive Marquise Brown, Rondale Moore and Greg Dortch. Instead, Pascal surpassed a 30 percent snap share in only two of his 14 appearances and stumbled to the lowest output of his six-year career by a long shot. He's an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, so the…read more

Good to go for Week 18
Pascal (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Pascal was on the Cardinals' injury report Thursday with a hamstring issue, but was able to log back-to-back limited sessions to end the week and will play in the team's regular-season finale. The veteran wide receiver has split his time between offense and special teams this season and has accrued four catches on 15 targets for 19 yards over 13 games.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Pascal is questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Seahawks due to a hamstring injury, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Pascal popped up on the Cardinals' injury report with a hamstring issue Thursday and has since logged a pair of limited practice sessions. The veteran receiver has played a limited role for Arizona this season, and he hasn't caught a pass since Week 4 against San Francisco. If Pascal is unable to suit up Sunday, Dan Chisena could be signed to the active roster from the practice squad to provide wideout depth Week 18.

Missing Sunday's contest
Pascal (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The 28-year-old wideout won't play in Sunday's affair after the birth of his child Saturday. On the season, Pascal has caught four of his 11 targets for 19 yards, playing on just 21 percent of Arizona's offensive snaps. With no Pascal in Week 13, Andre Baccellia could see increased opportunities on both special teams and offense.

Questionable for Sunday
Pascal (personal) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Also per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, Pascal is not traveling with the Cardinals on Friday but is expected to join the team again Saturday. That would suggest he'll probably play in Week 13, but if he can't, it will likely mean more playing time for Andre Baccellia.

Pascal (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Pascal sat out of the Cardinals' Week 11 loss to the Texans after he sustained a hamstring injury the week prior. He was a limited participant in practice all week and could see extended time in three-wideout sets with Michael Wilson (shoulder) ruled out for Sunday's contest.

Out Sunday
Pascal (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The 28-year-old wide receiver failed to log a single practice this week, so it's no surprise that he'll be inactive for Sunday's contest. Greg Dortch has a chance to see increased opportunities on Arizona's offense in Pascal's stead.

Pascal (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Pascal suffered the injury in the Cardinals' Week 10 win over the Falcons and was unable to return to the contest.

Good to go vs. Ravens
Pascal (neck) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus Baltimore, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Pascal sat out Week 7 action with a neck injury, but it looks like he'll be ready to suit up in Week 8. He's drawn more than one target in only one game this season, back in Week 4 at San Francisco.

Pascal (neck) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Pascal returned to practice Wednesday after missing last week's loss to the Seahawks with a neck injury. The 28-year-old has caught four of his eight targets for 19 yards in six games this season and will look to make his return versus the Ravens on Sunday.

Won't go Week 7
Pascal (neck) has been deemed inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Pascal will miss his first game of the season after picking up a neck injury, which left him sidelined for all three practices leading into this Week 7 contest. The 28-year-old's next opportunity to suit up will arrive Sunday, Oct. 29 against Baltimore. In Pascal's absence, expect Greg Dortch to step into a bigger role behind the Cardinals' starting receiver trio of Marquise Brown, Michael Wilson and Rondale Moore.

Questionable for Week 7
Pascal (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Seattle, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Pascal followed coach Jonathan Gannon from Philadelphia to Arizona in the offseason, but he's seen sparse usage in the Cardinals offense, getting at least 25 percent of the offensive snaps in two of six games. His output (4-19-0 on eight targets) thus isn't much of a surprise, and Pascal now may in danger of missing his first contest of the campaign after failing to practice in any capacity this week.

Three grabs in loss
Pascal caught three of his four targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 35-16 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Pascal played just 21 of Arizona's 71 offensive snaps Sunday, but his four targets in the contest were his most in a game so far this season. Despite the increased opportunity, the veteran wideout was unable to have much of an impact. Pascal will likely remain extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes going forward barring injuries in the Cardinals' receiving corps. The Cardinals will host the Bengals in Week 5.

Inked by Arizona
The Cardinals and Pascal agreed to terms Monday on a two-year contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Pascal's production dropped in his inaugural season with the Eagles' star-studded offense in 2022, as he logged just 15 catches for 150 yards and one touchdown, all career-low marks. It's possible he earns increased work in Arizona, especially if the team ends up parting ways with DeAndre Hopkins (knee) this offseason. Even then, though, all of Marquise Brown, Rondale Moore (groin) and Greg Dortch would seem clearly above Pascal on the depth chart.

Finishes with career lows
Pascal ended the regular season with 15 catches for 150 yards and one touchdown, all career lows.
Analysis: Pascal averaged 37.5 catches, 472 yards and 3.8 touchdowns across his four seasons in Indianapolis but saw his numbers tail off significantly after his move to Philadelphia. A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith combined to claim 56 percent of the Eagles' targets, leaving very little work for the team's depth wideouts. Pascal is merely on a one-year deal, so it's possible he finds himself on a roster that needs to look his way more often next season.

Apparently good to go Saturday
Pascal (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's game at Dallas.
Analysis: Pascal was listed as questionable Thursday, as he still hadn't cleared protocol for the concussion he sustained in Philadelphia's win at Chicago in Week 15, but he presumably got the okay from team physicians to return to football activities Friday. With A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Quez Watkins and Dallas Goedert all healthy headed into Week 16, Pascal's path to targets is very narrow.

Questionable for Saturday
Pascal (concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: Pascal sustained a concussion during the Eagles' win over the Bears on Sunday, and he was a non-participant during practice Tuesday and Wednesday. While it's unclear if he's managed to clear protocols yet, the 28-year-old should have a chance to play on Christmas Eve after logging a limited practice Thursday.

No activity Wednesday
Pascal (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Pascal has now opened Week 16 prep with two straight absences due to the concussion he sustained this past weekend in Chicago. He'll likely need to return to the field as a limited participant at the Eagles' final practice session of the week Thursday to have a legitimate chance at clearing the NFL's five-step concussion before Saturday's game in Dallas.

Logs DNP to open Week 16 prep
Pascal (concussion) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.
Analysis: Pascal appears to have sustained a concussion in last weekend's matchup against the Bears, ultimately explaining why he was listed as a non-participant during Tuesday's walk-through session. The 28-year-old wide receiver has until Saturday to clear protocols before the Eagles square off in Dallas.

Notches short reception in win
Pascal played 19 snaps on offense and turned his lone target into a five-yard reception in Sunday's 48-22 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Pascal operated as the clear No. 4 receiver behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Quez Watkins and actually ended up seeing more playing time on the Eagles' special-teams units, where he logged 20 snaps. With pass-catching tight end Dallas Goedert (shoulder) trending toward a return from injured reserve for the Eagles' Week 15 game at Chicago, Pascal's opportunities on offense could become even scarcer over the final quarter of the regular season.

Two catches in blowout win
Pascal pulled in two of his three targets in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Titans, gaining 16 yards.
Analysis: Pascal's three targets matched his season high. He could see an uptick in usage going forward depending on the results of No. 3 wideout Quez Watkins' shoulder MRI, but he's unlikely to see a particularly large bump. Watkins himself is averaging just 2.5 targets a game, with Jalen Hurts primarily looking for his top two receivers.

Good to go
Pascal (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: Quez Watkins has taken more of the snaps in recent weeks after rotating with Pascal for much of the season, and given Watkins' recent surge in production it's possible that continues Sunday against the Titans even after Pascal managed a full practice Friday and was cleared for the game.

Limited due to groin injury
Pascal was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a groin injury.
Analysis: Seeing as Pascal played a season-low nine offensive snaps against the Packers, the wideout presumably picked up the groin injury sometime in the first half of the Eagles' primetime win. The extent of the issue remains unclear, but it's encouraging to see Pascal at least get some work in during the first session of Week 13 prep. He'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice before Philadelphia needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

Plays season-low eight snaps
Pascal went without a target while playing eight of the Eagles' 79 snaps on offense in Sunday's 40-33 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Pascal's 10 percent snap share marked a notable downturn from Week 11, when he played 43 percent of the snaps in a win over the Colts. The Eagles handed most of Pascal's playing time to Quez Watkins (84 percent share), who operated as the team's clear No. 3 receiver after splitting the role with Pascal in Week 11.

Catches one pass
Pascal pulled in one of his two targets and gained 10 yards in Monday's loss to Washington.
Analysis: The Eagles offense was muted overall with the Commanders dominating time of possession. Pascal hasn't made much of an impression even when the Eagles have been playing with a lead, so it's no surprise to see his impact remain minimal in the team's first loss.

Records one reception
Pascal caught his only target and gained eight yards in Thursday's victory over the Texans.
Analysis: Pascal continues to play a minor role at most. He's scored just once all season and is averaging 1.1 catches for 13.0 yards per game. He continues to trail Quez Watkins in snap count (35 to 20 in this instance), so even an injury to A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith might not give Pascal a fantasy-relevant role.

Scores first touchdown of season
Pascal caught both his targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win against Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Pascal hadn't scored all season and hadn't caught a pass since Week 3, so he must have enjoyed the chance to contribute against the Steelers. His 34-yard score on an out-and-up early in the third quarter stretched the Eagles' lead to 28-10. Despite that play, however, he remains an unappealing fantasy option, as he's caught just eight passes through seven games.

Not targeted in Week 5 win
Pascal went without a catch for the second week in a row Sunday against the Cardinals.
Analysis: While this wasn't the first time this season that Pascal has gone without a catch, it did represent the first time he went without a target. He also saw the field for a season-low 13 offensive snaps. The Eagles thus far are barely looking to their secondary weapons and have little incentive to change that given their 5-0 record.

No catches against Jaguars
Pascal finished with zero catches on one target Sunday against Jacksonville.
Analysis: Pascal caught at least one pass in each of the first three games of the season, but he didn't play a major role in any of those contests, topping out at just three receptions. He was blanked Week 4, with no wideout other than A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith hauling in a pass.

Three catches in win
Pascal was targeted three times in Sunday's Week 3 win against Washington, leading to three catches for 18 yards.
Analysis: Pascal narrowly trailed Quez Watkins in snaps (33-30), but he beat him 3-1 in targets and 3-0 in receptions. Still, neither of the Eagles' depth options was able to do much on a day in which A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith each received double-digit targets. Those two have combined for 86 percent of the Eagles' wide receiver targets this season, so there hasn't been room for Pascal to play much of a role.

Catches two passes
Pascal pulled in both of his targets Monday against the Vikings, finishes with 14 yards on two receptions.
Analysis: Pascal doesn't appear to be a big part of the Eagles' plans at the moment. He's been fourth on the wideout depth chart in terms of snap count in both of the first two weeks, though he did at least jump up from 17 snaps Week 1 to 31 in Week 2. He's received just three targets on the year, but that does put him ahead of No. 3 receiver Quez Watkins, who's been targeted just twice.

Pulls in lone target
Pascal brought in his only target for seven yards in the Eagles' 38-35 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: It wasn't a particularly notable performance for Pascal, but it did make him the lone Eagles wideout not named A.J. Brown to pull in a pass. Brown's 13 targets and 10 catches didn't leave much room for anyone else, and Pascal won't necessarily be the primary beneficiary if the Eagles spread the ball around more in the future, as he saw the field for just 17 snaps.

Returns from food poisoning
Pascal returned to practice Thursday after missing the first week of training camp with food poisoning, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: A late start to camp shouldn't be the end of the world for a 27-year-old with 44 career starts, especially given that his new head coach was his offensive coordinator for three seasons in Indianapolis. On the other hand, Pascal has never done a ton with is playing time, and last year in particular he was one of the NFL's least productive starting WRs on a per-snap, per-route or per-target basis (384 yards, 5.6 YPT, 872 snaps).

No timetable for return
Coach Nick Sirianni said Monday that Pascal (illness) does not have a return timetable, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: Pascal is dealing with a stomach illness, one which has prevented him from participating in training camp thus far. If Pascal is unable to get back on the field in the near future and begin establishing a rapport with Jalen Hurts, it could lower his chances of earning a notable depth role in Philadelphia's wide receiver corps, which is headlined by A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Dealing with illness
Pascal is not practicing Saturday due to an illness, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Pascal has been sidelined due to an illness since Wednesday, per EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer, but the Eagles' practice report indicates that the wideout is not dealing with COVID. The 27-year-old wideout is competing for a depth gig in Philadelphia's wide receiver corps, so it would benefit him to return to training camp as soon as possible.

Joining Eagles
Pascal is signing a one-year contract with the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Pascal caught only 38 passes last season despite playing 872 offensive snaps, but he does have the benefit of familiarity with Eagles coach Nick Sirianni, who was the Colts' offensive coordinator from 2018 to 2020. The 27-year-old wideout now is set to compete with Quez Watkins and Jalen Reagor for roles behind No. 1 receiver DeVonta Smith, though the Eagles still have plenty of time to add another receiver (or two) to that mix.

Just one reception in season finale
Pascal had one reception for seven yards on two targets in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.
Analysis: Pascal had another season of being a reliable, if not spectacular, contributor in Indy's offense with 38 receptions for 384 yards and three touchdowns on 69 targets, but he averaged just 10.1 yards per reception -- his lowest mark since his rookie season (9.9).

Pascal had one reception for eight yards on two targets in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Las Vegas.
Analysis: Pascal returned after missing a game while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He played on 34 of the offense's 56 snaps, which was slightly more than Ashton Dulin's 27 snaps and represented a season low in percentage of those plays. Pascal may see more activity in the third receiver role next week against Jacksonville.

The Colts reinstated Pascal (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: After testing positive for the virus last Saturday, Pascal was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list just hours before the Colts' eventual win over the Cardinals. Though he missed the Colts' first official Week 17 practice while in isolation, the wideout should get back on the field Thursday and Friday and put himself on a path to play Sunday against the Raiders.

Leads team with 23 receiving yards
Pascal caught one of two targets for 23 yards in Saturday's 27-17 win over New England.
Analysis: Pascal's modest stat line was enough to lead the Colts in receiving yards, as the team took a page out of the Patriots' playbook against Buffalo and completed just five passes while trampling New England with the running game. After totaling a season-high 58 receiving yards in Week 9 against the Jets, Pascal has just six catches for 50 yards in five subsequent games.

Catches one pass Sunday
Pascal caught one of his three targets for six yards and added one rushing attempt for 12 yards during Sunday's 31-0 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Pascal finished third on the team in targets behind Michael Pittman (eight) and Nyheim Hines (four), but he was only able to haul in one of them for a modest gain. Over his last two games, the wideout has garnered 10 targets, but he has caught just three passes for 18 yards. This is certainly a concerning trend and likely makes Pascal a risky fantasy option when the Colts resume action Week 15 against the Patriots.

Targeted seven times in loss
Pascal secured two of seven targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Pascal's seven targets in Sunday's loss matched his second-highest total of the season, yet he failed to generate much production on his two catches. The 26-year-old racked up a season-high 58 receiving yards in Week 9 but has hauled in four of 10 targets for 21 yards while rushing once for nine yards across the last three games.

No receptions Sunday
Pascal failed to catch his only target in Sunday's win at Buffalo.

Pair of grabs in victory
Pascal brought in both targets for nine yards in the Colts' 23-17 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran possession receiver's final numbers were especially disappointing after he'd posted a solid 9-101 line on 15 targets over his last two games, and he actually lost three yards on one of his catches. Pascal's reception and yardage tallies were his worst outside of his Week 5 blanking against the Texans, and he could have a tough time improving on them much during a Week 11 matchup against a tough Bills secondary.

Four catches in win
Pascal brought in four of seven targets for 58 yards in the Colts' 45-30 win over the Jets on Thursday night.
Analysis: Pascal turned in one of his trademark solid-but-unspectacular efforts that saw him serve as a reliable No. 2 option alongside Michael Pittman. Pascal's yardage total was a season-high figure for the fourth-year pro, however, and with 21 targets in his last three contests, he's at least got a relatively safe fantasy floor going into a Week 10 divisional matchup against the Jaguars a week from Sunday.

Five-catch effort in OT loss
Pascal secured five of eight targets for 43 yards in the Colts' 34-31 overtime loss to the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Pascal turned in one of his trademark workmanlike efforts and checked in second on the team in receptions. The possession receiver's production represented a modest but welcome resurgence after he been held to a pair of three-catch efforts and zero receptions once over the prior three games. With T.Y. Hilton possibly suffering a concussion late in Sunday's game, Pascal could have a prominent role in the Thursday night Week 9 battle against the Jets.

Just three receptions Sunday
Pascal had three receptions for 14 yards on six targets in Sunday's 30-18 win at San Francisco.
Analysis: Pascal led the team in targets and didn't do much with them, but some of that can be excused by the rainy and windy conditions. He worked as the No. 2 receiver with T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) out and should continue to get a steady workload with both Hilton and Parris Campbell (foot) sidelined.

Pascal had three receptions for 48 yards on five targets in Monday's loss at Baltimore.
Analysis: Pascal started at receiver opposite Michael Pittman and played on 59 of the offense's 69 snaps. He was also third on the team in targets. Given his usual workload, he could be more productive against Houston next week.

Pascal brought in four of five targets for 44 yards in the Colts' 27-17 in over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Pascal gained 41 of his yards on one reception where he flashed some nice after-the-catch skills, so the remainder of his three grabs went for just three yards. The veteran possession receiver's yardage total qualified as a season-high figure, but Pascal will look to build up his overall numbers in a Week 5 Monday night road matchup against the Ravens.

Just two receptions Sunday
Pascal had two receptions on seven targets for 31 yards in Sunday's loss at Tennessee.
Analysis: It wasn't a great game for Pascal as he dropped a potential catch near the goal line and failed to make a few potential catches. It was a positive he was second on the team in targets, and some of his off day could be the result of Carson Wentz being limited with two sore ankles.

Returns to practice Thursday
Pascal (illness) was able to practice Thursday, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Analysis: Pascal missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness but his return Thursday suggests the slot receiver isn't in danger of sitting out a juicy Week 3 matchup with a Titans secondary that's been the most generous in the league to opposing receivers in the early going. The only damper on Pascal's outlook Sunday is the possible absence of starting quarterback Carson Wentz (ankle), whom Erickson said wasn't spotted at practice Thursday.

Misses practice with illness
Pascal missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness.
Analysis: The good news is that Pascal wasn't placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Assuming that doesn't change, he'll have a good chance to suit up in Sunday's game against the Titans, looking to build on a strong start to the season (three touchdowns on 11 targets in two games). Pascal may have to catch passes from backup quarterback Jacob Eason instead of banged-up starter Carson Wentz (ankles), who missed practice Wednesday and looks questionable -- at best -- for Week 3.

Pascal secured five of six targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 27-24 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Pascal crossed the goal line for the third time in two games when he recorded an eight-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter in connection with Carson Wentz (ankle). The veteran clearly is a red-zone factor in coach Frank Reich's scheme, which helps make up for the fact Pascal doesn't flash much explosiveness between the 20s.

Hilton (IR-neck) unavailable, getting into the end zone from 10 and 11 yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively.

Analysis: Pascal returns to practice along with QB Carson Wentz (foot) and starting center Ryan Kelly. Pascal's absence coincided with WR T.Y. Hilton's surgery for a disc injury in his neck, ruling the veteran out for at least three games. Pascal seemed to be competing with Parris Campbell for slot snaps earlier this summer, but the Colts may now use him as a replacement for Hilton, at least early on in the season. They kick things off with a Week 1 home game against the Seahawks.

Pascal will likely see the largest increase in playing time among the receiving corps while T.Y. Hilton is out multiple weeks with a neck injury, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports. Pascal is likely to start at receiver opposite Michael Pittman.
Analysis: Pascal is likely to start outside opposite Pittman with Parris Campbell in the slot. However, both Campbell and Pascal were used in the slot last season, and Pascal was used in multiple roles. It may take a week or two to figure out how a passing game without Hilton and with new quarterback Carson Wentz may distribute targets.

Hilton, Michael Pittman and Parris Campbell represent the competition for playing time at wide receiver. Pascal had a top-three role for most of last season, but he could drop down to No. 4 if everyone is healthy (a big 'if') in 2021.

The wideout suited up in all 16 regular-season contests for the Colts, reeling in 44 of 71 targets for 629 yards and five touchdowns. He'll continue operating in a starting role alongside T.Y.

Analysis: Pascal paced all Colts receivers in receptions and yards, narrowly beating out T.Y. Hilton in each statistic. However, he made his primary impact with two touchdown grabs, which came from 11 and five yards. Pascal had recorded only one reception in each of his last three games, but Sunday, he benefitted from Michael Pittman's inability to command targets.

Pascal's consistent usage is encouraging, but it's tough to depend on him in fantasy at this point.

Analysis: Pascal was listed as questionable before avoiding the inactive list ahead of last week's loss to the Titans, but he looks poised to enter Sunday's game in Houston without an injury designation at all.

Pascal had four receptions for 54 yards on seven targets, including a 17-yard touchdown, in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Pascal has been working as the No. 2 receiver with injuries to Parris Campbell (knee) and Michael Pittman (leg), but he had just two targets last week amid Philip Rivers' struggles. With the Colts falling behind early Sunday, the Colts turned to the passing game with Rivers showing a significant improvement (105.4 passer rating). Pascal isn't in a high volume passing offense, so he may not be a steady source of production unless the Colts are forced to catch up like Sunday.

Analysis: The 25-year-old paced Indianapolis with 58 receiving yards during a 19-11 win over the Bears in Week 4, but he established a new season low in yards Sunday despite playing 91 percent of the offensive snaps. Pascal proved during 2019 that he is capable of breaking big plays, as evidenced by his five touchdowns and 14.8 yards-per-catch average.

However, he played just seven more snaps than Michael Pittman (39 snaps) and was tied for sixth in targets in the offense.

He's therefore off the radar in most re-draft formats in his present…read more

More competition for snaps
Pascal will face increased competition for playing time with the Colts taking Michael Pittman in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Analysis: Pittman should immediately push for a starting role in three-wide sets for Indianapolis after catching 101 of 136 targets for 1,275 yards (9.4 YPT) and 11 touchdowns last season at USC. Pascal took advantage of a number of injuries in the receiving corps last season to lead the team in receiving yards (607) while reaching the end zone five times. However, he could be used this season in a more limited capacity with Parris Campbell also set to compete for a larger role after an injury-plagued…read more

Gets extended
Pascal signed a one-year contract extension with the Colts on Monday.
Analysis: Pascal was scheduled to become an exclusive rights free agent in March, but his extension ensures he'll remain in the fold for Indianapolis through the 2020 season. The 25-year-old took advantage of a number of injuries to the Colts' pass catchers to lead the team in receiving yards (607) while reaching the end zone five times.

Just one reception Sunday
Pascal had just one reception for six yards on three targets in Sunday's win over Carolina.
Analysis: The Colts didn't throw many passes (Jacoby Brissett was just 14 of 27 for 119 yards passing) due to a large lead gained on special teams and via the run. Pascal still started and played on 50 of the offense's 64 snaps. He should get more work next week at Jacksonville.

Makes four grabs
Pascal caught four of six targets for 44 yards in Monday night's 34-7 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Pascal led the Colts in catches and receiving yards despite top wideout T.Y. Hilton returning from injury to top the team in targets. Hilton didn't produce much at all prior to Indy's final offensive drive though, and it was Pascal who went for a team-long, 24-yard reception earlier. Even with Hilton back -- and especially if he's on a snap count -- Pascal should remain one of Jacoby Brissett's primary options going into the final two weeks of the season.

Another strong performance
Pascal caught five of nine targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-35 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Pascal has stepped up with T.Y. Hilton (calf) sidelined. After setting a new career high with 109 receiving yards last week, Pascal pulled down his fifth touchdown of the season from 12 yards out in the third quarter. As long as Hilton remains out, Pascal is an enticing plug-in option at the wide receiver position.

Tops 100 receiving yards
Pascal hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 109 yards in the team's Week 13 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Pascal leapt up the depth chart with T.Y. Hilton (calf) and Parris Campbell (hand) both ruled out prior to the game. Pascal took advantage of Chester Rogers' (knee) exit from the game after just two plays by recording several big grabs -- including three receptions of 20 yards or more and another that went for 19 yards. Pascal has shown flashes of brilliance without other key Colts offensive weapons around, so his outlook for Week 14 against the Buccaneers will likely depend on the health of…read more

Held without a catch Thursday
Pascal logged 59 of a possible 67 snap on offense in Thursday's 20-17 loss to the Texans but did not catch his only target in the game.
Analysis: Pascal's 88 percent snap share was tops among the Colts' wideouts Thursday, but that's because the team limited T.Y. Hilton to 25 snaps in his return from a calf injury. The team's next game isn't until Dec. 1 against the Titans, at which point Pascal could possibly have some added competition for playing time, with both Parris Campbell (hand) and Devin Funchess (collarbone) candidates to return to action in Week 13.

Can't turn targets into production
Pascal hauled in two of his six targets for 17 yards in the team's Week 11 win against the Jaguars.
Analysis: Pascal led the team with six targets but his lone significant reception came on the team's second drive when he turned a short pass into a 14-yard gain. Though Pascal has struggled to build on his Week 9 breakout against the Steelers, he has earned at least six targets in each of his past three games. With the Colts playing their Week 12 contest against the Texans on Thursday, it's unlikely that T.Y. Hilton (groin), Parris Campbell (hand) and Devin Funchess (collarbone) will return. That should…read more

Fails to build on breakout
Pascal hauled in two of seven targets for 26 yards in the team's Week 10 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Pascal was the victim of a poor performance by Brian Hoyer, as he finished tied for second on the team with seven targets. He also accounted for the team's longest play from scrimmage, coming on a 23-yard reception during the team's first drive of the game. If T.Y. Hilton (calf) remains out and Jacoby Brissett (knee) is able to return, Pascal could be in a good position to bounce back in Week 11 against the Jaguars.

Takes over as leading receiver
Pascal recorded five receptions on six targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Week 9 against the Steelers.
Analysis: Pascal entered the game among a committee of receivers that hoped to replace T.Y. Hilton's (calf) production. He did so successfully, leading the team in targets, receptions and yards. In the process, he showed rapport with both Jacoby Brissett (knee) and Brian Hoye in a performance highlighted by a 14-yard score late in the second quarter. However, he also connected for long receptions of 17, 18 and 19 yards to turn in his second-highest yardage total of the season. While Pascal has seen…read more

Should help fill in for Hilton
Pascal is expected to step in as the Colts' No. 1 wideout Sunday in Pittsburgh after coach Frank Reich said T.Y. Hilton (calf) could be sidelined for three weeks, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Over the six games he's played this season, Hilton averaged 5.3 receptions, 60 yards and 7.6 targets while scoring five times. Pascal shouldn't be expected to match that volume or efficiency, but he'll nonetheless be in store for more consistent involvement in the passing game as the Colts look to replace their top option. Rather than counting on Pascal to act as a one-for-one replacement for Hilton, the Colts likely will turn to multiple pass catchers to step up their production in the next…read more
