Outlook Pat Freiermuth
Pat Freiermuth at New Orleans — Dependable Target in Paris
Operating as Pittsburgh's top tight end, Freiermuth enters this matchup fully healthy after shaking off a recent calf concern. With wideouts Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson both sidelined on injured reserve, Freiermuth should see steady looks from Aaron Rodgers in the middle of the field.
Our projections expect roughly 3.6 receptions for 37 yards and 9.9 fantasy points against a struggling Saints defense. After finding the end zone twice across his past two games, Freiermuth offers a safe floor and legitimate touchdown upside, making him a solid streaming starter in standard 12-team leagues.

Outlook Mike Washington
Mike Washington vs. Rams — Practice Absences Cloud Status
Washington is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Rams after missing back-to-back practices due to foot and back injuries. Although head coach Klint Kubiak indicated he expects the rookie to play, his missed practice time creates meaningful availability risk behind starter Ashton Jeanty. Check back prior to kickoff for final confirmation on his active status.
Even if cleared to play, Washington holds limited standalone upside, with our projection anticipating roughly 5.1 fantasy points on five carries and minimal pass-catching work. Rostered in 33% of leagues but started in under 3%, he remains an unproven change-of-pace backup and should be kept on fantasy benches this week.
