Kyle Pitts of the Atlanta Falcons remains under a franchise tag for the 2026 season. ESPN's Dan Graziano suggests that if the Falcons struggle early in the season and do not extend Pitts' contract by July 15, he could become available for trade. The Baltimore Ravens, facing departures of tight ends Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar in free agency, may look to acquire Pitts, whose performance in the 2025 season showcased his capabilities. The outcome of the Falcons' 2026 campaign will heavily influence any potential trading decisions.
