Kevin Stefanski's offenses ranked in the top six in total targets to tight ends in each of the past six seasons with the Cleveland Browns. He's now the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons; that's music to the ears of Kyle Pitts managers. The former No. 4 overall pick is already coming off a career year, in which he finished as the overall TE2, thanks to personal-best numbers in catches (88) and touchdowns (five).

Pitts projects for TE1 upside under Stefanski, who targets TEs in top-six range.

The source projects Pitts could see an encore or better performance in 2026 under new head coach Kevin Stefanski, whose offenses ranked in the top six in total targets to tight ends in each of the past six seasons with the Cleveland Browns. Pitts is coming off a career year in 2025 as the overall TE2 with personal-best numbers in catches (88) and touchdowns (five). The source states 'If we marry the expected bump in targets with Pitts' efficiency from 2025, the sky is the limit.' Among all tight ends in 2025, Pitts finished third in expected points added (+55.9), fifth in first downs per route run (0.101), and ninth in yards per route run (1.80).
