Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta is tied for first among tight ends with 12 catches. He is second with 141 yards and he is third with 16 targets.

Fantasy Tip: Time will tell if Pitta is back for good or if his recent production is an anomaly. He figures to continue to be the No. 1 tight end in Baltimore with Benjamin Watson out for the year. If Pitta is available and you're in need of a tight end, pick him up.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta caught nine passes for 102 yards against the Cleveland Browns in Week 2.

Fantasy Tip: Pitta was targeted 12 times during the game and appears to have a strong hold of the starting tight end job. He is still a risky player for owners because of his injury history, but he should be at least a No. 2 tight end in most leagues that can start against favorable matchups.

Baltimore Ravens TEs Dennis Pitta (finger) and Maxx Williams (knee) are active for the team's Week 1 game.

Fantasy Tip: Pitta will be the starting tight end and will be playing for the first time in several years. He will be a risky option because of his injury history but could be used in deeper leagues. Williams should receive a few targets but is not a strong fantasy option.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) will start Week 1's game against the Buffalo Bills Sunday, Sept. 11.

Fantasy Tip: Pitta is playing for the first time since suffering a major hip injury in 2014, so he should be viewed as a risky option in all fantasy formats. Owners may want to see him in a game or two before they consider using him in their lineups.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) and Maxx Williams (knee) were full participants in practice Thursday, Sept. 8.

Fantasy Tip: Pitta and Williams should get some run with Benjamin Watson out for the year, but Crockett Gillmore is a better bet. That being said, the Ravens' tight end position is one to stay away from.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) and TE Maxx Williams (knee) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 7.

Fantasy Tip: It is not known how Pitta and Williams will be used, but both should receive some targets in Week 1. Pitta is a risky option since he has not played in a few years, so owners may want to see him play in a game before considering using him. Williams will have to share snaps and is not a great fantasy option at this point.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) and TE Maxx Williams (undisclosed) are participating in practice Saturday, Sept. 3.

Fantasy Tip: It appears like Pitta and Williams will have a chance to play in Week 1, but owners should monitor the situation. Pitta has a chance to be the starting tight end with Benjamin Watson out for the season, but he likely will have a solid role in the passing game even if he does not start. Pitta probably should be considered a No. 2 tight end in most leagues but could be an option for owners in daily fantasy leagues against favorable matchups.

Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) and TE Maxx Williams (undisclosed) are expected to return to practice shortly after the final preseason game Thursday, Sept. 1.

Fantasy Tip: The loss of Benjamin Watson (Achilles') for the season opened a gaping hole at tight end that only Crockett Gillmore is healthy enough to fill for now. Pitta has the most upside if he can return to something resembling his pre-injury form. All three are in the TE2 area in fantasy until someone separates themselves from the pack.

Updating previous reports, Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (finger) is sidelined due to a broken finger, and there is concern that he could need a screw inserted if he returns before it heals.

Fantasy Tip: Pitta was already facing tall odds at returning from two major hip surgeries, and he's little more than a low-end TE2 in fantasy.
