Outlook Pat Freiermuth

Pat Freiermuth at New Orleans — Solid TE1 Streaming Appeal in Paris

Freiermuth enters Week 7 without an injury designation after managing a calf issue, leading Pittsburgh's tight end corps into an international clash against New Orleans. With wide receiver Roman Wilson on injured reserve and the receiving corps thinned out, Freiermuth should serve as a primary short-to-intermediate target for Aaron Rodgers.

Currently rostered in 72% of leagues, Freiermuth offers dependable scoring equity with four touchdowns already under his belt this season. Our projections anticipate 3.8 receptions, 38 receiving yards, and 10.2 fantasy points, making him a reliable flex streamer and quality top-twelve tight end option.
