NFL Week 2 top moments: Ravens, Titans, Cowboys escape with wins Sunday
Derrick Henry ran wild, Tom Brady stayed hot, and kickers loomed large. Here are the top moments from Week 2 in the NFL!SEPTEMBER 20, 2021
Shows improvement in Week 2 win Pitts secured five of six targets for 73 yards in the Falcons' 48-25 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Impact The fourth overall pick slogged through his NFL debut against the Eagles a week ago, but Pitts looked much more the part Sunday in a tough defensive matchup. Pitts notched a team-high 24-yard reception on his way to pacing the Falcons in receiving yardage, and he also flashed improved efficiency after bringing in only half his eight targets in Week 1. Pitts will look to continue his ascent against a vulnerable Giants defense in a Week 3 road battle.

Fizzles in regular-season debut Pitts brought in four of eight targets for 31 yards in the Falcons' 32-6 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Impact Pitts' highly anticipated regular-season debut was a disappointing microcosm of the Falcons' afternoon, even as the rookie tight end tied for second on the team in receptions and was also the runner-up in receiving yardage despite his modest total. Pitts' longest reception went for 18 yards, meaning he netted a measly 13 on his three other grabs. Pitts did draw even with Calvin Ridley for the team lead in targets, however, offering a glimmer of optimism for disheartened fantasy managers who invested heavy draft capital in him. Pitts will have the tough task of trying to better his production in a Week 2 road battle against the defending champion Buccaneers.
