Pourquoi c'est important
The Tennessee Titans have struggled mightily in recent seasons, going 3-14 in both 2024 and 2025. The team is looking to build around rising quarterback Cam Ward and has been actively making roster changes. Kyle Pitts, despite battling a knee injury last season, put up strong numbers with 88 catches for 928 yards and 5 touchdowns, earning his first AP All-Pro selection.
The Tennessee Titans experienced a disastrous run on the field in the last few seasons as they recorded just 3 wins and 14 losses in both 2025 and 2024. It seems the team failed to show any improvement in their performance even as the Tennessee Titans focused on a roster change.
A few hours ago, Bleacher Report's Alex Kay linked the Tennessee Titans to the Atlanta Falcons' star player, Kyle Pitts. Bleacher Report's Alex Kay noted, "The Tennessee Titans could look to capitalize on a rejuvenated Pitts being available in a trade. While fourth-round rookie Gunnar Helm showed some promise last year, Pitts would immediately slot in as the team's TE1 and become a focal point of the offense."
Bleacher Report's Alex Kay added, "If the Titans want to build around rising star Cam Ward, it would behove the organization to put a strong offer for Pitts on the table during the 2026 draft."
Bleacher Report's Alex Kay continued, "The tight end would be an ideal red area target and safety valve in offensive coordinator Brian Daboll's system, while still being young enough at 25 to continue improving alongside Ward if he receives a contract extension from the Titans."
However, the Tennessee Titans have not yet commented on the trade talks involving Kyle Pitts. Though the Atlanta Falcons placed the franchise tag on Kyle Pitts in February, it seems the team is still open to trade him. As per Atlanta Journal-Constitution, last week the Atlanta Falcons' general manager Ian Cunningham commented on Kyle Pitts as he said, "I would say, for all the players, we are going to listen…" He added, "I wouldn't just say Kyle. All players, we are going to listen. That's our job. That doesn't mean that's going to happen."
The Atlanta Falcons' star tight end, Kyle Pitts, has been a force to be reckoned with on the field. Last season, even as he dealt with a brutal knee injury, Kyle Pitts started all 17 games as he finished the season with 88 catches for 928 yards and a career high five touchdowns. This also earned Kyle Pitts his first AP All-Pro selection as he impressed everyone with his dominating performance on the field.
For now, all eyes are on what the Atlanta Falcons decide to do about Kyle Pitts as fans wait for him to bounce back on the field.
