Falcons training camp: Kyle Pitts dominates first padded practice
The Atlanta Falcons held their first padded practice on Tuesday morning in Flowery Branch and Kyle Pitts was everywhere. Now that the team has two quality quarterbacks on the roster, Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix Jr., the fourth-year tight end is starting to look like himself again.
Pitts had 1,026 receiving yards as a rookie but just 1,023 yards in the last two seasons combined as he dealt with an MCL injury and ineffective quarterback play. As the Falcons wrap up their fifth day of practice, check out the best highlights we could find of Pitts and company below:
