Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (ankle) is off the injury report ahead of the team's Week 8 road outing against the Seattle Seahawks. The 27-year-old picked up an ankle injury during the Bills' 34-10 dismantling of the Tennessee Titans last Sunday but was still able to log 31 snaps (56%). Despite beginning the week tagged with a DNP, Knox upgraded his participation over the ensuing two practices -- culminating with a full session on Friday. He'll now head into Week 8 without a designation. It's fantastic news for the Bills, as they'll now have both starting tight ends available Sunday, with Dalton Kincaid (collarbone) also off the injury report. Look for them to garner their usual snap counts in their primary roles against one of the better pass defenses in the league on a per-play basis.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts continued his stretch of productivity in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers, hauling in four of five targets for 91 yards and two scores. The yardage total was a season-high and it was the first time in his four-year career that the 24-year-old recorded multiple touchdown catches in a game. After failing to catch a pass in Week 4, Pitts has averaged five catches for 79 yards in the four weeks since. In Week 9, the Falcons will take on the Cowboys who had been solid defending TEs prior to Sunday when they allowed George Kittle to log a 6-128-1 line. Regardless, Pitts is still likely a TE1 for fantasy, and he has hopefully put some of the volatility behind him.
