The NFL offseason is a time when the futures of players become the center of attention, and for tight end Kyle Pitts Jim Pappin Jersey , this was true.  With the franchise placing the tag on Pitts, some thought he wouldn't sign it as he wanted a long-term deal, and as such, could hold out of the offseason program.  But in what is a huge win for new head coach Kevin Stefanski, Pitts has signed his tender, per NFL Network, and even reported to the facility to begin voluntary offseason workouts.  That is a huge win for Stefanski and the Falcons.  More:  Long-term deal coming for Pitts?  Well, that will be the plan for the Falcons.  The tag is a mere placeholder until the two sides can come to terms on a new deal.  Set to earn roughly $15 million in 2026 if the two sides can agree to a new deal before the July 15 deadline, Pitts is taken care of either way.  But having Pitts signed to a long-term deal would be great for the Falcons and would be a big tick of approval for Stefanski.  Granted, it is a small step in the right direction, and we know things can go south in a hurry, but right now, there are good vibes coming out of the NFC South franchise with Stefanski securing a big win of the offseason.  More NFL news:  Bob Probert Jersey
