Falcons
Falcons TE Kyle Pitts is entering the final year of his rookie deal, and HC Raheem Morris and GM Terry Fontenot still believe that there is plenty for him to prove.
“He’s always going to have the added pressure because of how high he was drafted, right?” Morris said, via Terrin Waack of the team website. “So, we want to be able to get the young man out there and be the best version of him. We’ll always make the right decision for the Falcons, and we’ll always make the right decision for us in order to get him going. We’ll have to figure those things out.”
“Look, Kyle’s a really talented player,” Fontenot added. “He’s done some really good things. Man, you can make a highlight tape and see all the good things that he’s done. We believe that Kyle’s going to put everything he can into being the best player he can for us. We’re going to do the same for him.”
