Westbrook-Ikhine elevated if Pierce out; serviceable platoon option but not Pittman Jr. replacement.

Westbrook-Ikhine is part of the Colts' wide receiver depth chart and could be deployed in a platoon with Ashton Dulin to their clear strengths. However, he is less relevant when Pierce, Downs, and Warren are fully healthy, as he would be the 3rd or 4th option. With Pierce out, Westbrook-Ikhine gets elevated in the receiving hierarchy, but he is not as complete a wideout as the departed Michael Pittman Jr.
