Falcons shouldn't let Packers' brutal injury pave the way for grave deadline mistake

The Atlanta Falcons enter the trade deadline amid a three-game losing streak, which will force Terry Fontenot to face the music while determining the futures of some fan favorite. One of those pressing decisions pertains to the future of Kyle Pitts, who is in line to be a free agent later this offseason.

The fifth-year tight end has emerged as one of the most consistent pass-catchers for the Dirty Birds this season, but it remains to be seen on whether Fontenot will retain him long-term. And the recent skid could see Atlanta entertain offers on the former Mackey Award winner before Tuesday's trade deadline.
