Pruitt gathered in his only target for 17 yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory versus the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt secured just one reception for a third straight game, totaling 29 receiving yards during that stretch. With Kyle Pitts (knee) leaving the contest early, Pruitt played a season-high 31 offensive snaps, which was second most among tight ends behind Parker Hesse (37). Both Pruitt and Hesse figure to garner increased roles if Pitts has to miss extended time, but neither backup projects to have as large of an impact in the passing game as Pitts.

Pruitt caught his only target for six yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss versus the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt has played at least 11 offensive snaps in each of the past five games, but he's seen just two targets, catching both for eight yards. Atlanta's passing attack remains limited, so despite Pruitt's consistent role in the Falcons offense, he doesn't have much fantasy value moving forward.

Pruitt was signed to the Falcons' active roster Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt signed with Atlanta's practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster in August. However, the veteran tight end has been elevated for each of the team's last two contests, catching his only target for a two-yard touchdown in Week 6 against the 49ers.

Pruitt reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt was promoted to the active roster for the second game in a row during Sunday's win over the 49ers. With rookie John FitzPatrick (undisclosed) still on IR, Pruitt played 16 of Atlanta's 58 offensive snaps behind Parker Hesse (41 snaps) and Kyle Pitts (33 snaps). Pruitt did haul in his lone target for a two-yard touchdown in the first quarter, and he will be available for just one more game-day elevation while on the Falcon's practice squad this season.

Pruitt caught his only target for two yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 28-14 victory over the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for a second consecutive week and played 16 offensive snaps, four more than his first appearance. He quickly made an impression on Sunday's game, catching a two-yard touchdown pass from Marcus Mariota for his first scoring grab of the campaign. Pruitt is eligible for only one more elevation before he'll have to be signed to the active roster.

Pruitt reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt was elevated to the active roster for the first time with starting tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) sidelined against the Buccaneers on Sunday. As a result, the ninth-year veteran played 12 of Atlanta's 66 offensive snaps behind Parker Hesse (41 snaps) and Anthony Firkser (15 snaps). Pruitt did not receive a target during Sunday's loss, and he will now be eligible for two more elevations while on the Falcons' practice squad this season.

The Falcons elevated Pruitt on Saturday from their practice squad to their active roster for Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis

With Kyle Pitts (hamstring) ruled out for Week 5, Pruitt will get his first elevation of the campaign and has a chance to make his season debut against Tampa Bay. It's unclear how big of a role he'll play, but Atlanta figures to fill Pitts' absence via committee with Parker Hesse, Anthony Firkser, Feleipe Franks and Pruitt all garnering snaps.

Pruitt was signed to the Falcons' practice squad Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt failed to make the 53-man roster but will be kept around the organization in a practice squad capacity. The 30-year-old tight end is more experienced than most practice squad players, having dressed for 79 NFL games in his career.

Atlanta released Pruitt on Tuesday, Jeff Schultz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt won't make the Falcons' initial 53-man roster, but the team could keep him in mind as things continue to develop. He appeared in 16 games with the Titans last season and recorded 14 receptions for 145 yards and three touchdowns on 18 targets.

Atlanta signed Pruitt on Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pruitt saw double-digit targets for just the third time in his eight-year career in 2021, turning those 18 looks into a career-high 14 receptions for 145 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games. The bad news, though, is that he's joining a tight-end room that's a bit crowded after former quarterback Feleipe Franks made a switch to the position in June. Pruitt will contend with Franks for opportunities behind Kyle Pitts and Anthony Firkser during training camp, but he'll need to make a good impression quickly to snag a spot on the Falcons' initial 53-man roster.
