Should You Start or Sit Pitts in Week 11?
What could have been.
Kyle Pitts dropped a big pass on Michael Penix’s first offering of the game, a play that had a chance at being a house call from 56 yards out given the YAC abilities of the tight end.
But it wasn’t meant to be and in an offense like this that is as concentrated to a single pass catcher as any in the league, the missing of an opportunity is crippling.
The first pass of the second half also went the way of Pitts (25-yard gain), a sign to me that this offense is looking to get him going early. That said, there was no momentum to be gained.
Pitts finished with two catches for 38 yards despite a very reasonable 20% target share. He’s been held without a touchdown in five straight games and has failed to reach 40 receiving yards in five games this season.
He’s certainly on the radar as a backend option at a brutal position, but I’m not ranking him as a must-start, even in a reasonable matchup.
