Who Should I Start? Kyle Pitts Sr. or Tucker Kraft

Saturday, September 27, 11:54 AM

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. was a full participant in practice on Friday and is coming off his third straight game with at least five targets and at least four catches to begin the season. His involvement is a solid increase from 2024, when he garnered 13.7 percent target share, compared to this season's 18.3 percent target share. Unfortunately, this year's targets have been of the shorter variety, with a 5.5 aDOT compared to last season's 8.4 aDOT, and he's yet to receive a red zone look in 2025. Even so, with 15 catches for 135 yards (9.0 average), the 24-year-old stands just outside the top 12 in fantasy scoring at the position thus far, and if he's able to find paydirt in Week 4, he'll be comfortably in the top 12 come Monday. Atlanta's Week 4 opponent, the Washington Commanders, has allowed the ninth-most half-PPR points to tight ends through three weeks, and gave up three scores through the air last Sunday (albeit to a WR). In what should be a competitive game, view the 6-foot-6 tight end as a low-end TE1 for Week 4.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has recorded 11 catches for 169 yards and two touchdowns on 15 targets through three games so far in 2025. The third-year tight end could be well set up for success in Week 4, as he'll face a Dallas Cowboys' defense that has been one of the worst in the NFL this season. Dallas ranks last in the NFL in yards allowed per pass attempt (9.8) and has allowed the second-most passing touchdowns in the league (seven). Kraft is currently the lead target-earner on the Packers. If Green Bay does have success through the air on Sunday, it could mean a huge game for Kraft. He profiles as a must-start fantasy tight end in Week 4 against the Cowboys.
