News: 4 days agoFreiermuth caught five of seven targets for 44 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-22 win over the Colts. He added one yard on his lone carry.
Spin: The veteran tight end connected with Aaron Rodgers on a one-yard score in the second quarter and a 17-yard strike in the fourth. Freiermuth is up to four touchdowns through five games to begin the season, already matching his total over 17 regular-season contests in 2025, and his 19 catches has him on pace to match the career-high 65 passes he hauled in during 2024. Freiermuth will look to keep rolling in a Week 6 road trip to Tampa Bay.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Freiermuth's career trajectory has been quite the head-scratcher, but the bottom line is he is yet to emerge as a consistent fantasy starter. The 2021 second-round pick flirted with TE1 status in both 2022 (11th in fantasy PPG) and 2024 (14th) but saw a dramatic dip in usage in Pittsburgh's crowded tight end room in 2025. Freiermuth posted a career-low 10% target share and finished outside the top 20 at the position in snaps, routes, targets, catches, yards and end zone targets, and 30 tight ends bested his 6.7 fantasy PPG. The 27-year-old figures to play more in 2026 with Jonnu Smith gone and Mike McCarthy running the offense, but Pittsburgh is also better at wide receiver with Michael Pittman Jr. and Germie Bernard in the fold. Freiermuth has some sleeper appeal, but he's best valued as a back-end TE2.
