3 years agoAtlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is coming off of the worst game of his career ahead of a Week 9 contest against the Saints. Pitts struggled against the Panthers last week, but it's worth noting that he racked up over 100 receiving yards in each of the two games before that. The budding star has shown an ability to beat defenders downfield for the deep pass or outrun them after the catch- all while seeing the seventh-most targets at his position. The Saints have been stingy to opposing tight ends, but Pitts lines up all over the field and should see a healthy amount of targets sans Calvin Ridley (personal). He can be started as a strong TE1 this week.--Tim Capurso
