The Falcons have officially locked up tight end Kyle Pitts for the next three years.
After placing the franchise tag on Pitts earlier this offseason, the Falcons are signing Pitts to a three-year, $54 million contract extension with $36 million guaranteed, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The deal makes Pitts the third highest-paid tight end in the league, and ensures the Falcons keep one of their top playmakers in Atlanta.
