FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The Atlanta Falcons added tight end Kyle Pitts to the injury report for Thursday's indoor practice. Like Drake London, he was listed as limited with a knee injury.
Pitts is coming off the most productive performance of his career, posting a career-high 166 yards and three touchdowns against the Buccaneers last Thursday. He was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week on Wednesday. Pitts became the eighth tight end all-time to record at least 150 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns in a game, and the first tight end to do so since Shannon Sharpe during the 1996 season. Pitts' 338 receiving yards over his last three games are the most ever by a Falcons tight end in a three-game span.
The Falcons are continuing to monitor London's status as he works to return from a PCL sprain that has kept him off the field for the last four games.
In other injury news, the Falcons added three defensive linemen to the Thursday report: Ruke Orhorhoro was listed with a groin injury, LaCale London with a shoulder injury and Brandon Dorlus with both an illness and shoulder injury.
