Highly doubt it. Even if we ignore Higgins' performance this year and his rib injury...
-The Falcons have Pitts for 2 more years at about $13m total.
-Higgins has a little over half a year left before he needs either a >$20m franchise tag, or a 4yr/$100-108m contract.
Pitts is still a 23-year-old Pro Bowler 4th overall pick at a position that is lacking around the leauge. Also, Higgins would have to agree to sign an extension with them to be their #2 WR since they just spent an 8th overall pick to draft Drake London to be their #1, which I don't think Higgins wants.
