The Atlanta Falcons extended tight end Kyle Pitts with a three-year, $54 million contract, reportedly including $36 million fully guaranteed. This agreement sets a new benchmark for tight ends and is expected to influence negotiations for Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid. Kincaid has averaged close numbers to Pitts, but has faced injury issues and has less experience, entering his fourth NFL season compared to Pitts' sixth. The Bills exercised Kincaid's fifth-year option earlier this year, reflecting confidence in his potential future contributions.
- •Pitts' deal represents the largest three-year contract for a tight end.
- •Kincaid has averaged 89 targets and 65 receptions per season.
- •Kincaid has faced injuries limiting his game availability.
- •Bills picked up Kincaid's fifth-year option earlier this year.
- •Kincaid's Pro Bowl inclusion could enhance contract negotiation leverage.
