Kyle Pitts "As Healthy As He's Been"

Sunday, July 27, 11:17 AM

Atlanta Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot said that tight end Kyle Pitts is "as healthy has he's been" in training camp. Pitts dealt with a minor foot injury earlier this offseason but was cleared before the start of training camp and isn't limited in any way this summer. That's good news as the 24-year-old looks to become a bigger part of the offense in quarterback Michael Penix Jr.'s first full season as the starting QB. The former first-rounder has been a disappointment since a 1,000-yard season in his rookie campaign. He caught 47 passes last year for 602 yards and four touchdowns. He's still young, and most fantasy managers are probably avoiding him at all costs, especially after he did nothing special in Penix's three starts to close out the 2024 season. Draft him as a TE2 and hope that the Falcons finally figure out how to use him properly.

Tucker Kraft Plays Majority Of First-Team Snaps in Preseason Opener

Sunday, August 10, 12:27 AM

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft played the majority of snaps on the Packers' first two series in the Green Bay preseason opener against the New York Jets. While Kraft didn't earn a target from quarterback Jordan Love, he played on 10-of-12 offensive snaps per Nathan Jahnke of Pro Football Focus. Kraft's night was over after the first-team offense left the field after the second drive. Kraft's second NFL season was excellent with 50 receptions, 707 receiving yards and seven touchdowns while playing in all 17 games. As the clear top tight end on the Packers in 2025, Kraft's services can be procured in fantasy for a mid-round pick and could provide massive benefits if he can take a leap in production this season.
