Early life

Pittman attended Thomas Jefferson High School in Auburn, Washington. He was a three-year letterman in Football and Track for the Raiders.

Pittman was discovered and seen at well-known specialist coach Paul Assad's free agent camp in Reno, Nevada by Jerry Rosburg, special teams coach of the Cleveland Browns. His 15 yard punt snaps were clocked at 0.55 seconds, the fastest to date by a long snapper at an official combine event. Normal times are between 0.68 and 0.70 seconds. Cleveland had drafted a long snapper so after the last cuts of pre-season, Pittman was picked up by the Houston Texans by coach Joe Marciano who had seen Pittman at Paul Assad's event. He went on to play for seven years in the NFL.^{[citation needed]}
