Kyle Pitts becomes the player he was drafted to be 

As for being one of the primary faces of the franchise at just 21 years old, there’s a lot of responsibility that comes with that. Its responsibility Pitts is already taking in stride. He seems to be more comfortable both on the field and in front of a camera.

He carried a lot of expectations on his shoulders in his rookie year, and it didn’t seem to ever phase him from the outside looking in. He looked to lean into those expectations. It’s something one can expect him to continue to do in his second year in the league, and beyond.

Because that’s what this series is about, right? How the Falcons can build around certain pieces? One has to think Pitts is one of the most important pieces of the organization as the next few years move forward.

As the 2022 season approaches, it’s about consistently carrying over the production mark he set in his rookie year into a new season, one in which more defenses will have a better idea of how to take him away. There’s almost a brand new offense around him, how does Pitts evolve as the offense does? We shall see.

At the end of the day, though, Pitts has shown he’s calm, cool and collected. If he continues to carry these things with him, the Falcons should be better for it, in the long term, especially.
