Since Week 4, Kyle Pitts has been the TE6 in fantasy points per game. During that stretch, he has had a 17.2% target share, 2.09 YPRR, six red zone targets, and a 19.3% first-read share. It's possible he could see that type of usage again this week against a single high heavy Tampa Bay pass defense. Tampa Bay has the fourth-highest single-high rate in the NFL (60.4%).

Pitts' single-high alignment and Tampa's weak TE defense set up another strong week.

Since Week 4, Kyle Pitts has been the TE6 in fantasy points per game with a 17.2% target share, 2.09 YPRR, six red zone targets, and a 19.3% first-read share. Last week against the 49ers, he saw a 27% TPRR against single-high coverage. Tampa Bay uses the fourth-highest single-high rate in the NFL (60.4%), which aligns with Pitts' usage pattern. Over the last five games, Tampa Bay has allowed the 14th-most yards per target and 12th-most fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends. Pitts also dominated the Buccaneers last year, finishing as TE7 and TE1 in weekly scoring across their two meetings.
