The Atlanta Falcons will face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding TE Kyle Pitts.
Is Kyle Pitts Playing in Week 14?
Pitts is not listed on the injury report this week, so barring any setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.

Should You Start or Sit Kyle Pitts in Week 14?
If you remove those two bonkers games against the Buccaneers and project Pitts’ projection over a full season, we are looking at a 41-reception season (536 yards and two touchdowns).
That’s essentially 2023 Chig Okonkwo.
Over the past two weeks, Pitts has turned 53 routes into nine yards. That yardage is so low I had to spell out the number. For whatever reason, Pitts’ name still carries weight for some, but if you’re weighing his draft capital at this point, you’re leaving fantasy points on the board weekly.
He’s not a top-15 tight end for me this week (his last end-zone target came in Week 6), a damning ranking when you consider that there are six teams on a bye. I’d rather sign up for Mike Gesicki or Will Dissly, both this week and for the remainder of the season.
What a world.
