Kyle Pitts Sr. News
Tuesday, May 26, 12:26 PM
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had arguably the best season of his NFL career in 2025, recording 88 catches for 928 yards and five touchdowns on 118 targets across 17 games. Given that he is still just entering his age-26 season in 2026, Pitts Sr. could be poised for the superstar breakout that many projected when he entered the league as the number four overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. However, Pitts Sr. has largely been an inconsistent producer to this point in his career, failing to record more than 53 catches, 667 receiving yards, or four touchdowns in any season between 2022 and 2024. The Falcons are also seemingly unwilling to commit to Pitts Sr. long term, as he enters 2026 playing on the one-year, $15 million franchise tag. In dynasty formats, managers may want to consider selling high on Pitts Sr. just in case he regresses back to previous levels of production in 2026.

Cade Otton News
Wednesday, May 27, 9:37 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton is not a flashy name in fantasy football, but his consistency and starting role have allowed him to stay on the fantasy radar as a decent depth piece. Otton has caught 59 passes in each of his last two seasons, operating as the No. 1 tight end in this Baker Mayfield-led offense. His touchdown total dropped to one last year, and as a result, his fantasy finish slipped to TE22 overall. Still, he has been a top-26 fantasy tight end in each of his five NFL seasons, and he offers low-end TE1 appeal when the Bucs' receivers miss time due to injury. For example, in the four games where both Mike Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. were injured last year, Otton averaged 5.0 catches and 50.3 receiving yards. Evans departed in free agency this year, but the Bucs still have a crowded receiver room, so we can't project Otton for a top-20 finish. Still, he's an extremely solid depth option in all fantasy leagues, including dynasty formats.
