Pitts caught two of seven targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 27-26 loss to New Orleans.
Pitts was targeted two times on the Falcons' opening drive, hauling in one pass for 11 yards. He added an eight-yard reception at the end of the first half that set up a last-second field goal from Younghoe Koo. However, the phenom tight end was shut out in the second half as the Falcons offense sputtered, which allowed the Saints to make a fourth-quarter comeback. Pitts tied rookie wideout Drake London in targets but finished fourth on the team in receiving yards behind a trio of receivers -- London, Olamide Zaccheaus and KhaDarel Hodge. Pitts' Week 1 performance was disappointing, but his high target share bodes well for a potential bounce-back performance against the Rams in Week 2.
