The 2021 NFL Draft was an historic night for Kyle Pitts. He was the highest drafted tight end in the history of the draft, and he entered the league with an historic amount of hype, quickly garnering the moniker of unicorn.
While there were plenty of doubters among those in the league, one of them, Saints defensive end Cam Jordan, went as far as to double down during a draft-night interview with Bleacher Report.
This Saturday in New Orleans, Pitts has a chance to make Jordan eat his words if he can put up a big performance.
Pitts has been among the top TEs all season, currently ranking third in yards per game, trailing only Mark Andrews and Travis Kelce.
Cam Jordan has probably been the member of the Saints defense that has had the biggest impact on the Falcons-Saints rivalry in the past decade, and now it's Kyle Pitts turn to do the talking.
