Falcons still trying to scheme for TE Kyle Pitts

ESPN

Sep 20, 2022 · 9:26 AM EDT

The Falcons are trying to scheme for Kyle Pitts – a source told ESPN that 13 of Atlanta’s passing plays Sunday had Pitts as the primary target – the production just hasn’t come yet.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say Pitts has to win his matchups better. He openly admitted that Sunday, and according to NFL Next Gen Stats, his average yards of separation when the ball arrives is 2.11 yards – No. 27 among qualifying tight ends and No. 138 among all pass-catchers, between Baltimore wide receiver Devin Duvernay and Jacksonville receiver Zay Jones. Sometimes the quarterback, Marcus Mariota, sees something else. Defenses are paying attention to Pitts, too, it went on to say.

Falcons won't know until end of week about WR Drake London

Falcons HC Arthur Smith on Drake London, "We won't know until the end of the week."

Fantasy Impact:

London practiced Monday, but beyond that and for Sunday's game the team doesn't expect to know much else until later. Pitts could be in line for a ton of targets if London is out and the WR work falls to Hodge, Edwards and Zaccheaus.

Falcons Beat: TE Kyle Pitts standing out

USA Today

Kyle Pitts has been nearly unguardable during the first weeks of training camp. Not only is the second-year TE a mismatch due to his freakish size, he can run right past opposing linebackers and defensive backs with ease.

Fantasy Impact:

While this shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, it's at least good to hear. As the story added, following an outstanding rookie season, Pitts appears ready to take his game to another level in Year 2. The Falcons lack experience at the wide receiver position so expect QB Marcus Mariota to target Pitts frequently this season, especially in the red zone. Pitts should be drafted as a top TE option and we rank him third on our list with an ADP of the late third in 12-team leagues.
