The Atlanta Falcons won’t have their star tight end in the lineup when they face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5.
Kyle Pitts missed practice all week with a hamstring injury, and has been ruled out for Sunday’s game.
The No. 4 overall pick in the NFL draft two years ago, Pitts has followed up his stellar rookie season with a slow start to his sophomore campaign.
Atlanta will also be without another offensive weapon in do-it-all running back Cordarrelle Patterson, who was placed on injured reserve earlier this week.
