MyCole Pruitt secured one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 18-10 win over the Falcons.Pruitt was on the field for 59 percent of the Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive snaps Sunday, more than fellow reserve tight end Darnell Washington.

Falcons' MyCole Pruitt: Records two catches in loss
MyCole Pruitt played 21 of 72 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 15 yards on two targets in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers.Pruitt fumbled after reeling in a six-yard reception in the second quarter, but fortunately for the Atlanta Falcons, the football bounced out of bounds to allow Atlanta to maintain possession.
