Quick fantasy outlook: In 2012, Pettigrew came in after two complete seasons, and two seasons as a top 12 fantasy TE. And the Lions threw the ball 740 times, for over 5000 yards this season. You'd think that Pettigrew would have another top season. Instead he missed a few games due to injury and finished well outside the starting tight end range. This year Pettigrew should bounce back, as the Lions certainly recognize that force-feeding the ball to Calvin Johnson is not the key to victory. Pettigrew should be an important part of the offense, and should return to his stats as a solid fantasy TE.
