Kyle Pitts Sr. Looking to Continue Dominant Stretch
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had a historic day in the Week 15 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, setting career highs in targets (12), catches (11), yards (166), and touchdowns (three). His 45.6 PPR points were the most by a tight end this century, narrowly edging out Shannon Sharpe's 45.4-point performance in Week 7 of the 2002 season. The No. 4 overall pick back in 2021 is taking full advantage of the boost in targets with receiver Drake London (knee) out of the lineup and is showing why he was the highest-drafted tight end ever with a game for the ages. With London practicing on Wednesday and trending positively to play on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, Pitts likely won't have this kind of nuclear performance again. However, the 25-year-old looked dominant against the Bucs and still profiles as a top-three tight end for the second round of the fantasy playoffs.
