NFL fans are praying for Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman this Saturday after seeing him take one of the most vicious hits we’ve seen this season. 

Pittman had to fully extend himself to catch a pass downfield from Gardner Minshew. His attempt was ultimately thwarted by an illegal hit from Steelers safety Damontae Kazee. 

Despite seeing the star wideout defenseless, Kazee launched his body right in the direction of Pittman’s head. 

Not only was Kazee penalized for his brutal hit on Pittman, he was ejected from the game. 

Prayers up to Michael Pittman who took a brutal hit 🙏🏻

There’s no place in the NFL for these type of hits.

For what it’s worth, Kazee has been fined five times this regular season. In November, he was fined consecutive weeks for unnecessary roughness. 

Pittman, meanwhile, was off to an incredible start this Saturday afternoon, hauling in four passes for 78 yards. The USC product is currently being evaluated for a concussion.
