Outlook Pat Freiermuth

Pat Freiermuth at CIN: Road Division Clash With Shootout Potential

Healthy heading into Week 10, Freiermuth remains Pittsburgh's primary tight end ahead of Darnell Washington and Robert Tonyan in a passing attack led by Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf. While the 6-2 Steelers enter on a four-game winning streak, Freiermuth's recent involvement has been quiet, as he logged just two receptions in each of his last three outings.

Our weekly projection lands near 9.8 PPR points on roughly three catches and 29 yards, leaning on scoring potential as a road underdog against the 6-2 Bengals in a game expected to be high scoring. Rostered in half of leagues with start rates climbing toward 20%, he is a viable streaming option for managers seeking red-zone upside.
