Kyle Pitts was one of the biggest fantasy football busts of the season coming into Week 7.
That’s why a Falcons fan went wild celebrating when the second-year tight end finally found the end zone.
It was at the receiving end of a 7-yard pass from Marcus Mariota in the third quarter of Sunday’s game with the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday and after the PAT Atlanta had a surprising 28-14 lead.
The wait is over, Kyle Pitts catches his first NFL touchdown in America and at MBS ‼️

No reason to get totally wild, though, as Pitts only had 3 receptions for 19 yards after the reception.
Pitts caught 68 passes in 2021. However, only 1 went for a score.
