Pat Freiermuth has been a huge piece to the Steelers as a rookie. The second-rounder has racked up seven touchdowns along with 385 receiving yards.
In the Steelers comeback attempt against the Vikings, it ended on an incompletion intended for Freiermuth. Ben Roethlisberger made a great throw between two defenders, but safety Harrison Smith made a great play to knock the ball away. Roethlisberger spoke on Freiermuth’s maturity on moving on from the play.
“I did and still do feel bad for Pat, but I think the thing about Pat is he’s shown amazing maturity and professionalism,” Roethlisberger said Wednesday via the team’s official website.
