Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Kyle Pitts (knee) expected to be ready for the start of the season
Falcons HC Arthur Smith said he expects everybody being ready for the season opener, including TE Kyle Pitts.
Fantasy Impact
Pitts has been sidelined during OTAs as he continues to recover from MCL surgery. His status will be one to monitor as we soon head into training camp, but he is still expected to be fully healthy for the start of the season as of right now.

Kyle Pitts 2023 Fantasy Football Outlook
After becoming the first tight end in 50 seasons to have 1,000 receiving yards as a rookie, Kyle Pitts had a bitterly disappointing sophomore season, finishing with 28 catches for 356 yards and two touchdowns and missing the last six games of the season with a torn MCL. The 22-year-old Pitts is immensely talented and figures to be a top fantasy TE for many years to come. But can Pitts be a prolific fantasy scorer in 2023 with run-loving head coach Arthur Smith in charge of the Falcons’ offense and the Atlanta QB situation unsettled? Pitts will be a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option for 2023, but at least he’ll be cheaper in this year’s drafts than he was in 2022.
