Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Minimal production in loss
Kyle Pitts caught two of three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Panthers.Pitts finished the 2024 campaign with a quiet day against Carolina. The 24-year-old tight end was mostly a disappointment for fantasy managers this season, totaling just 47 catches on 74 targets for 602 yards and four touchdowns. Pitts will remain under contract with Atlanta in 2025, as the Atlanta Falcons exercised the $10.88 million team option on his rookie contract last April. The Florida product will look to turn things around in a contract year next season, and he'll likely be catching passes from Michael Penix at quarterback with Kirk Cousins expected to be cut in the offseason.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Rare strong showing Sunday
Kyle Pitts caught four of five targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Washington.Pitts turned in a rare strong fantasy line in Sunday's overtime loss. The underwhelming 2021 first-round pick upped his season marks to 49 receptions, 631 receiving yards and five touchdowns as Week 17 nears a close. Pitts has been a barometer for inconsistency in his four years in the league, making for a risky play as the Atlanta Falcons prepare to host the Panthers next Sunday.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: One catch in win
Kyle Pitts caught one of two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 34-7 win over the Giants.Pitts continued his underwhelming 2024 campaign, with his seven-yard catch representing his lowest yardage total of the season aside from goose eggs in Weeks 4 and 13. The other target Pitts received on the day ended in disaster, as he was unable to corral a Michael Penix inside the Giants' five-yard line and ended up tipping the ball into the hands of cornerback Cor'Dale Flott for an interception. Over his last five contests, Pitts has produced a woeful 7-58-0 receiving line on 17 targets.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Team-high catch tally Monday
Kyle Pitts secured all four targets for 28 yards in the Atlanta Falcons' 15-9 win over the Raiders on Monday night.The struggling tight end saw a welcome uptick in involvement, even as that came accompanied with a modest receiving yardage total. Pitts' catch and target totals were both team-high figures, and both the reception and yardage tallies also were his best since Week 10. Pitts will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 16 home matchup against the Giants.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Minimal production on six targets
Kyle Pitts caught one of six targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Vikings.Pitts was a respectable play during the first half of the season, posting 34 receptions (on 49 targets) for 485 yards and three touchdowns across his first 10 appearances. However, over the past four games, Pitts has two receptions (on 11 targets) for 23 yards. During that stretch, QB Kirk Cousins had some solid yardage totals, but he threw eight INTs and zero TDs. Despite that horrid stretch, the Atlanta Falcons aren't planning on making a change at QB, even though rookie Michael Penix has looked good in limited action.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Does nothing with two targets
Kyle Pitts didn't record a catch on two targets during Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Chargers.Pitts was held without a catch for the second time this season, and over the last four games, he has totaled six receptions on 12 targets for 75 yards. From Weeks 5 to 8, the tight end caught 21 of 27 targets for 314 yards and two touchdowns. However, that stretch is starting to look like an outlier compared to the rest of his season -- 14 catches on 27 targets for 180 yards and a TD across his other eight appearances. It's worth noting Kirk Cousins had his worst game of the season against the Chargers, throwing four interceptions and zero touchdowns, so a bounce-back effort from the veteran QB could mean better production from Pitts moving forward.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: One catch in Week 11 loss
Kyle Pitts caught one of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 38-6 loss to the Broncos.Pitts' season has been full of peaks and valleys, and he hit a low point in this lopsided loss. The 2021 fourth overall pick has been held to one catch in two of his last three games, a stretch that began right after Pitts set a season high with 91 receiving yards in Week 8 while scoring his first two touchdowns since Week 1. Pitts will look to get back on track in Week 13 against the Chargers following Atlanta's Week 12 bye.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Four grabs in Sunday's loss
Kyle Pitts caught four of six targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.The fourth-year tight end bounced back from a Week 9 game in which he saw only one target, although Pitts' production Sunday was still nothing special. Over the last six games, he's delivered a 26-380-2 line on 34 targets, and he'll try to find another gear in Week 11 on the road against the Broncos.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Avoids injury designation
Kyle Pitts (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints.WR Drake London, on the other hand, is listed as questionable with a hip injury. Both London and Pitts were limited practice participants Wednesday and Thursday, but the tight end upgraded to full participation Friday while his teammate remained limited. Although fellow tight end Charlie Woerner has eaten into Pitts' playing time recently, Pitts had four straight weeks with at least five targets and 70 receiving yards prior to falling flat last Sunday against the Cowboys (one catch for 11 yards on one target). Any limitations for London would improve Pitts' chances to see more first-read targets and get back on track for fantasy managers.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Stays limited Thursday
Kyle Pitts (hamstring) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.One day removed from being estimated as a limited participant due to a hamstring issue, Pitts officially had a cap on his reps Thursday as the Atlanta Falcons got back on the practice field. He thus has only more chance to prove his health this week before the Falcons potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at New Orleans. WR Drake London (hip pointer) also is banged-up, so the statuses of the team's top two pass catchers is up in the air for Week 10 action.
