Globally speaking, there wasn’t much to not like about the rookie 2021 season that Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth had. After all, the Steelers’ second round draft pick last year out of Penn State did finish his rookie season ranked third on the team in both receptions and receiving yards and second in touchdown receptions with seven. Even so, Freiermuth knows that he has room for improvement when it comes to his second NFL season.
Specifically, Freiermuth said on Wednesday after the team’s OTA practice that he’d like to see his average yards per catch go up in 2022.
