Report: Falcons ‘optimistic’ about TE Kyle Pitts after injury

The Atlanta Falcons might be able to breathe a huge sigh of relief about tight end Kyle Pitts.

As you know, Pitts took a nasty hit and suffered an injured knee during Sunday’s win against the Chicago Bears and left the game, not to return.

However, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports that the tight end might’ve avoided any ligament tears and highlighted the team’s overall optimism around his diagnosis.

Early indications are that Kyle Pitts did NOT tear any ligaments in his knee, sources tell @theScore.
