Should You Start or Sit Kyle Pitts in Week 11?
The Falcons have made an interesting shift in Kyle Pitts’ usage, and I think fantasy managers should be happy about it. He’s played under 54% of Atlanta’s offensive snaps in three straight games, but in three of his past four, he’s been targeted on at least 20% of his routes.
They are leaning into Pitts being a receiver, and that’s what we want. That’s how you end up with a highlight reel 23-yard catch on the sideline where Kirk Cousins is putting him in position to do what Pitts was put on this planet to do and high point the football.
If Drake London is going to find the sledding tough against Pat Surtain II, we could be looking at a nice volume game for Pitts. That lands him inside of my top 10 at the position. With this offense functioning at a high level, I’m happy to embrace the range of outcomes because it means I get access to a top-five ceiling.
