Kyle Pitts is currently missing the Atlanta Falcons' 2025 OTAs due to a strained foot. The team, led by head coach Raheem Morris, is being "extremely cautious" with his recovery, emphasizing that his absence is precautionary. Despite this, there is no indication that his training camp or Week 1 availability will be affected.
The Falcons have exercised Pitts' $10.88 million fifth-year option, underscoring their commitment to him. However, his 2025 fantasy football stock has taken a hit, with his ADP plummeting to 144.7, ranking him as TE24. This reflects skepticism about his health and role in the offense.
With Michael Penix Jr. as the projected starting quarterback, Pitts' chemistry with the young QB is crucial. Missing OTAs could hinder this development, but if healthy, Pitts remains a potential high-upside pick in later fantasy rounds.
