Kyle Pitts is a special talent as a pass-catcher, but as a tight end, he also takes pride in his blocking skills. Pitts isn’t happy with his “run blocking” and “pass blocking” ratings in the “Madden” video game, so he’s taking to social media to campaign for an adjustment.
In a video posted on Twitter, Pitts addresses “Grandma” and tells her, and her bingo-playing friends, to call a number about adjusting his blocking ratings in the game.
Grandma saw the ratings and I gave her that 689-278-3030 number. Y’all done for @EAMaddenNFL #EAathletes pic.twitter.com/QTYy4pKcO0

A 6-6, 246-pound athletic freak, Pitts’ use on the field blurs the line between tight end and wide receiver. Pitts faced criticism of his blocking skills during his Florida career, though he won the John Mackey Award for the top tight end in the country in 2020. As an NFL rookie, Pitts caught 68 passes for 1,026 yards and made the Pro Bowl.
As for the “Madden” adjustment campaign, Pitts has over 68,000 followers on Twitter, so he’ll likely be getting a little more help than just Grandma and her bingo friends.
