It’s becoming a familiar sight for the Pittsburgh Steelers and rookie tight end Pat Freiermuth. In big-time games, in key situations and especially in the redzone, Freiermuth — more often than not — is going to come through for the black and gold.
On Monday night at Heinz Field against the Chicago Bears in a wild back-and-forth game, Freiermuth again came up in clutch, hauling in a leaping catch over Bears’ cornerback Kindle Vildor along the right sideline in the end zone, and then made a sliding 13-yard fingertip catch off the turf to help set up Chris Boswell’s 40-yard, game-winning field goal.
