Kyle Pitts vs Tyler Warren: Who Should You Start?
The gap between Kyle Pitts and Tyler Warren is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 0.9 PPG in 2025, this is one of those tight end decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Kyle Pitts averaged 9.8 PPG with the Atlanta Falcons across 17 games, and Tyler Warren posted 8.9 with the Indianapolis Colts in 17.
When two tight ends are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.
Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Kyle Pitts had 88 catches for 928 yards; Tyler Warren posted 76 for 817. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.
Kyle Pitts has his bye in Week 12, and Tyler Warren rests in Week 14. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
