Kyle Pitts Set for Expanded Role in Falcons Offense Following 2-TD Game

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts ran a season-high 17 routes from the slot during Week 6, providing a crucial spark in a late comeback attempt. Pitts hauled in a remarkable 29-yard contested catch to prevent an interception and caught two second-half touchdowns against Chicago's blitz-heavy defense. Atlanta's coaching staff is urged to make Pitts a primary early-game target to help quarterback Michael Penix Jr. defeat heavy pressure.
