The first start for rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. on Sunday couldn't help TE Kyle Pitts. He drew just 2 targets in the win over the Giants, catching one and letting the other bounce off his hands and to a defender for Penix's only INT.
That's four games of 1 reception or fewer among the past five contests. It also marks five straight games of less than 30 yards receiving.
Pitts shouldn't be in fantasy lineups for a Week 17 visit to Washington, though we're betting on more Atlanta passing volume for what should be a more competitive game.
