Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith ruled Kyle Pitts out for the season on Wednesday.
Pitts suffered a knee injury against the Bears two weeks ago. He was placed on injured reserve the next day with reports coming in that Pitts had suffered a torn MCL and would require surgery. Smith confirmed that surgery on Wednesday before ruling him out. Pitts also posted to his Instagram story about the surgery.
Smith said the Falcons are not concerned with Pitts’ prognosis and potential return for the 2023 season.
