The sophomore tight-end will no longer play in the 2022 season.
It’s a blow for the Falcons. Coach Arthur Smith announced it today: Kyle Pitts will be out until the end of the season. Despite everything, Arthur Smith is not worried about his future. Indeed, Kyle Pitts suffers from a rupture of the internal ligament of the knee.
In its 2nd year, the tight-end was more discreet than last season with 25 receptions for 313 yards and 2 touchdowns. It is therefore a season with a taste of unfinished business that is coming to an end for him.
The Falcons will therefore have in this position MyCole Pruitt, author of a touchdown last week, Parker Heese or Anthony Firkser to replace him.
