Multiple teams have reached out to the Atlanta Falcons about a potential trade for tight end Kyle Pitts, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Atlanta would reportedly require at least a Day 2 draft pick in order to entertain a trade, and at the time, no deal is imminent. Nevertheless, it's an interesting storyline to follow as training camp approaches. Pitts has failed to live up to expectations as the No. 4 overall pick in 2021. He has just 10 touchdowns over four seasons and hasn't surpassed the 675-yard mark since his rookie campaign. The Florida product has been a thorn in the side of fantasy managers, finishing outside the top 12 tight ends in each of the last three seasons. In 2024, he totaled 47 catches, 602 yards, and four touchdowns en route to finishing as the overall TE15. A change of scenery could be exactly what Pitts needs, and there are plenty of tight end-needy teams that would surely welcome an upgrade.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton caught two passes for 32 yards during Sunday's playoff loss to the Washington Commanders. The 25-year-old returned from a three-game absence this weekend, but he didn't have a major impact as the Buccaneers threw the ball just 18 times. Otton was once again overlooked as Baker Mayfield preferred throwing to wide receivers Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan. The 25-year-old finished as the overall TE14 in 2024, which was the best mark of his career and was also impressive given that he missed a trio of contests. Otton, who had 600 yards and four touchdowns during the regular season, will look to build on his production even further as he pushes to be a top-12 tight end. Fantasy managers should treat him as such, albeit on the fringe around No. 12. Managers who draft Otton in 2025 should feel comfortable with him in their starting tight end slot.
