Pat Freiermuth’s Agent Told Him He’s ‘Going To Love’ Playing For Arthur Smith

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth is hoping for a big year with new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Smith has a reputation for making use of tight ends in his offense, so there is a certain logic there. And he could certainly use a big season, considering he is entering a contract year. That is unless he and the Steelers intend to sign a contract extension before the season begins.

I get the feeling that Freiermuth and his camp would prefer to wait, however. They can cash in with a career year, unless the Steelers are willing to pay in advance for that projection.
