Head coach Raheem Morris said that Pitts will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Pitts will be listed with an injury on Atlanta's first official practice report of the regular season, though he seemed to be at full health throughout training camp and the preseason. The fourth-year tight end still has two more chances to upgrade to full practice participation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, which will be Pitts' first chance to work with new quarterback Kirk Cousins. The Falcons have Charlie Woerner and Ross Dwelley behind Pitts on the depth chart at tight end, but both profile primarily as blockers.
