Despite an 11% first-down target rate, he's earning targets at a 21% targets-per-route-run rate and has a strong connection with QB Kirk Cousins. Coordinator Zach Robinson has calibrated the offense to work around Pitts' strengths rather than force him into a role that didn't fit. Ranked as low-end TE1 for the week.
