Kyle Pitts Faces Tough Week 1 Matchup

Kyle Pitts Faces Tough Week 1 Matchup

one year ago

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts had an awful 2022 season. The former Florida Gator was the TE32, averaging only 6.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. While the second-year tight end missed seven games because of injuries, Pitts scored more than 5.9 fantasy points in only three contests. However, the former Gator had his best performance against the Carolina Panthers last year. He had five receptions on nine targets for 80 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 8, scoring 16.5 fantasy points. Meanwhile, the Panthers held tight ends to only 8.3 fantasy points per game last season, the ninth-fewest in the NFL. While Pitts has significant upside, fantasy players should temper their Week 1 expectations against Carolina.
