Pat ‘Fire’ Muth: Steelers TE One Reason Why Russell Wilson ‘Was Excited To Come Here’

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t had WR George Pickens in their last two games, but that’s brought an opportunity for TE Pat Freiermuth, who has seized it. Over his last three games, Freiermuth has 12 receptions for 138 yards and three touchdowns, and QB Russell Wilson said Freiermuth is “on fire.”

“He’s just making plays for us. He wants me to say it again. Pat Freiermuth is on fire. I think he’s done a great job of making plays. I think that trust and that extra work we’ve been spending too,” Wilson said via transcript provided by the team.
