Kyle Pitts Questionable To Face The Saints
3 years agoAtlanta Falcons rookie tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) put in another limited practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Week 18 against the New Orleans Saints. Pitts has an opportunity to break Mike Ditka's record for receiving yards by a rookie tight end, so there's a good chance that he'll suit up if he's healthy enough to play. If the 21-year-old were to sit, Hayden Hurst and Parker Hesse would see more targets at the position. Receivers Russell Gage, Tajae Sharpe and Olamide Zaccheaus could also be more involved. Pitts has averaged a respectable 4.1 catches and 63.6 receiving yards in his first 16 NFL games, but he has just one touchdown to show for it, which has made him more of a high-end TE2 on a weekly basis in fantasy.
