Through three seasons, Kyle Pitts is keeping some impressive company. Just 16 tight ends in NFL history have more yardage through those first three years than he does—and that’s with Pitts missing several games and recovering from injury in 2023—and just 19 have more receptions. The low touchdown totals thus far have been disappointing, but if Pitts were just any tight end, we’d be thrilled with the production we’ve seen from him thus far.
But Pitts is not just any tight end. Selected fourth overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, Pitts was selected to be the ultimate weapon for this Atlanta Falcons passing attack, a move-him-anywhere threat and a red zone chaos causer because of his height, speed, and ability.
