The Falcoholic on Kyle Pitts

Pitts' $18M/year deal is overpriced given his production relied on weak receiver competition.

Pitts signed a contract averaging $18 million annually in June, making him the third-highest-paid tight end in football and paid higher than several No. 2 wide receivers including Michael Pittman, Romeo Doubs, and Wan'Dale Robinson. However, the source argues this contract was premature and undeserved, as Pitts' 2025 All-Pro bid was inflated by injuries to elite tight ends (Brock Bowers, Tucker Kraft, George Kittle, Sam LaPorta) and benefited from a depleted Falcons wide receiver corps.
