Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Kyle Pitts

VideoKEY Fantasy Football Preseason Week 1 Takeaways For All 32 TeamsAugust 17, 2026

From the video

Kyle Pittz is in that muddled mid low end tight end one range. He did get the target on all four of Tua's, you know, pass attempts. I think one of them was just kind of like a throwaway or batted pass. So, we saw it with Tua and Johnny Smith in 2024, even Darren Waller for stretches of 2025. Maybe Pitts is the answer, but God man just seems like a very, very bad offense.

Targeted on all four Tua attempts; offense quality is major concern

In preseason week 1, Pitts received a target on all four of Tua's pass attempts (though one was a throwaway or batted pass). Ian Hartitz notes Pitts is in the muddled mid-low end tight end one range, but expresses concern about the overall Falcons offense quality. He references similar situations with Tua and Johnny Smith in 2024 and Darren Waller in 2025, suggesting Pitts may be the answer but the offense is very bad; Hartitz would rather not get too much exposure to this offense if possible.
