The Colts’ wide receiving corps is one of the most underrated in the NFL, so it seems fitting to include the most underrated member of that unit on this list.

Despite being one of the most consistent receivers in recent franchise history, Zach Pascal’s contributions get glossed over year in and year out. In fact, over the last two seasons, he’s registered 85 catches for 1,236 yards and 10  touchdowns.

Why are Colts WR Zach Pascal’s contributions still getting overlooked?

Not bad for the third WR option on a team that’s built to run the football. For added context, Pascal’s 10 scores since 2019 are tied with TY Hilton for the team lead in that span. He also comes in third in receptions and second in both yards per reception and targets.

While it might be a stretch to call Pascal one of the best slot wideouts in the NFL, is there any evidence that proves he isn’t a top 15 player at the position? Touchdown Wire certainly seems to think so, as they ranked him as the eight-best (!) slot receiver in the game today.

Whether or not you think Pascal holds a candle to any of the top slot WRs, the Old Dominion product is clearly one of the hidden gems on the Colts’ roster.
