With Penix back, I fully expect we see the usually busy version of Pitts, who became the NFL's third highest-paid tight end in the offseason via a three-year deal worth $54 million. Pitts cleared this number in six of nine games last season when Penix started, so we know the sixth-year pro is one of his favorite go-to guys.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Pitts over 37.5 receiving yards with Penix back; cleared it in 6 of 9 games last season.

Pitts has had a disappointing start with just one reception for 15 yards through two games under quarterbacks Cooper Rush and Jack Strand, but with Penix returning, the source expects to see the usually busy version of Pitts. Last season, Pitts cleared the 37.5 receiving yards prop in six of nine games when Penix started, recording 30 receptions on 38 targets in those contests. The source targets Pitts over 37.5 receiving yards at -114 odds on FanDuel.
