Kyle Pitts Draws Favorable Week 3 Matchup

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has continued to be disappointing in fantasy football, catching just four passes for 49 yards thus far in 2023. However, the tight end position is scarce and weak overall, so fantasy managers might just want to ride it out with him and hope a boom week comes. His Week […]

Drake London Has High Ceiling, Low Floor Against Lions

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London caught zero passes in Week 1, then caught six of his seven targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 2.

Updating from a previous report, Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (thigh) is being considered day-to-day after suffering a thigh bruise in the Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
