News: 2 days agoPitts secured one of two targets for five yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Spin: Pitts' slow start persisted Thursday despite Michael Penix making his season debut and taking the reins of the offense from the ineffective duo of Cooper Rush and Jack Strand. Pitts has managed just two receptions for 20 yards on six targets through three games, but given how sharp Penix looked right out of the gate Thursday, the duo is bound to start clicking in coming games as they've done previously.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Right when it seemed like Pitts might never live up to the hype, the 2021 No. 4 pick put together the best season of his career. Pitts finished second among tight ends in routes, targets, catches, yards and fantasy points, setting career highs in all but the yardage category. He scored five touchdowns and has increased his total in that category (by exactly one) each season in the league. Pitts did a big chunk of his damage with Kirk Cousins under center (some with WR Drake London sidelined), which is notable as Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr. are set to battle for the Atlanta QB job. There's some obvious risk here considering Pitts finished 17th or lower in PPG three straight seasons before 2025, but he nonetheless enters his age-25 season as a priority target in the Atlanta offense. Consider him a midrange TE1.
