What the Falcons do at quarterback will determine how their offseason plays out. Their season in 2024 depends on improving it.
But there are still other housekeeping duties to perform. Atlanta is expected to at least initiate talks over A.J. Terrell’s eligibility for a contract extension.
Beyond quarterback In his debut season, Kyle Pitts made waves by amassing 1,026 yards on 68 receptions and winning a Pro Bowl. All eyes were on him as the highest-drafted tight end of all time, and he was on the verge of breaking Mike Ditka’s rookie record for receiving yards.
The following few years saw nothing come of that. Shotty quarterback play and a season-ending injury ruined his following two seasons. Pitts only amassed 1,023 yards on 81 receptions during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
But in 2024, after recovering from his knee ailment for another year, he should be in better shape. Additionally, Zac Robinson is one of the best young offensive minds in the game, and the squad plans to improve at quarterback. Regarding Kyle Pitts’ future in Atlanta, optimism is warranted.
There should be no reluctance in activating the Falcons’ fifth-year option to select first overall in 2021, even among the most pessimistic supporters. In 2025, Pitts will play with the option.
, there are other roster needs that the Falcons need to take care of. Arnold Ebiketie needs a pass rusher opposite him, Terrell needs a running partner, and Terry Fontenot wants to surround Drake London with additional ball catchers.
