Pat Freiermuth enjoyed a breakout rookie season in 2021 as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, quickly emerging as the top tight end in Pittsburgh while taking advantage of some unfortunate injuries for veteran tight end Eric Ebron, which allowed Freiermuth to see the field more often and truly develop a great rapport with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
Now, entering his second season in the NFL, Freiermuth finds himself as a key offensive weapon for the Steelers as the black and gold try to break in a new quarterback under center, whether that’s veterans Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph, or rookie first-round draft pick Kenny Pickett.
