Hoping to re-sign long term
Freiermuth said Wednesday on the Around the 412 Podcast that he wants to stay in Pittsburgh for the rest of his career, per Chris Ward of Steelers Now.
Analysis: The tight end is in a contract year, following a down 2023 season in which a hamstring injury cost him five games and may have limited his playing time in a few others. He caught nine passes for 120 yards in a Week 12 win over the Bengals and had five catches for 76 yards in a playoff loss to Buffalo, but otherwise Freiermuth had just 23 receptions for 188 yards and two TDs in 11 appearances. He was far more active in the passing game as a rookie (60-497-7) and again in 2022 (63-732-2), and he…read more

Productive in season-ending defeat
Freiermuth brought in five of eight targets for 76 yards in the Steelers' 31-17 wild-card loss to the Bills on Monday afternoon. He also fumbled once but did not give up possession.
Analysis: Freiermuth was the surprise leader in receiving yards and also shared the team lead in receptions for the Steelers, with Mason Rudolph frequently turning to the big tight end for quick-hitting passes. Freiermuth also boasted the longest catch of the day for Pittsburgh, a 33-yard first-quarter grab that ended with the third-year pro fumbling the ball and seeing it seemingly recovered by the Bills' Christian Benford (knee), only to have both the on-field and replay officials rule that Benford…read more

Logs 21 yards against Baltimore
Freiermuth secured both of his targets for 21 yards during the Steelers' 17-10 win over the Ravens on Saturday.
Analysis: Freiermuth had a lackluster second half of the regular season following a five-game absence earlier in the year, and he was held below 45 receiving yards for a sixth consecutive game Saturday. Across those six matchups, he secured 14 of 22 targets for 128 yards. The 2021 second-rounder reached the end zone just twice this season and hasn't been a prominent part of the passing game in recent weeks.

Has trio of catches in Week 17
Freiermuth totaled three catches (on four targets) for 44 yards during Sunday's 30-23 win at Seattle.
Analysis: Freiermuth wasn't looked at by quarterback Mason Rudolph in the latter's first start Week 16 against the Bengals, but the tight end was able to get in the act Sunday with his second-highest yardage tally of the year. With only three instances of 40-plus yards in 11 appearances on the campaign, though, Freiermuth is tough to trust in a Steelers offense with uncertainty under center and multiple options to feed in WRs George Pickens and Diontae Johnson and RB Jaylen Warren. Freiermuth may have a…read more

Not targeted in comfortable win
Freiermuth wasn't targeted during the Steelers' 34-11 win over the Bengals on Saturday.
Analysis: Freiermuth was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report, but he logged full practices to close out the week. His snap count remained steady in a matchup in which the Steelers' offense had a strong showing, but quarterback Mason Rudolph didn't target Freiermuth in the victory. Freiermuth had his best performance of the season against the Bengals in Week 12 by securing nine of 11 targets for 120 yards, but he's secured just nine of 16 targets for 63 yards over four games since…read more

Logs full practice Wednesday
Freiermuth (knee) practiced fully Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official sitereports.
Analysis: Freiermuth was deemed a limited participant Tuesday, but the tight end's return to a full activity a day later sets the stage for him to be available for Saturday's game against the Bengals. He's turned in three-catch efforts in each of his last three outings, and apart from a nine-reception outburst Week 12, he hasn't exceeded three catches in any of his nine appearances this season.

Tending to knee issue
Freiermuth was listed as limited on Tuesday's practice report due to a knee injury, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth previously sat out Weeks 5-10 due to a hamstring issue, but a different concern is impacting his reps to begin Week 16 prep. Since returning from injured reserve Week 11, he's hauled in 19 of 28 targets for 190 yards and no touchdowns, with most of that production coming in Week 12 against Cincinnati (9-120-0 on 11 targets). Freiermuth will be tough to trust in Saturday's rematch with the Bengals if he's able to suit up.

Limited impact in loss
Freiermuth secured three of four targets for 16 yards during the Steelers' 30-13 loss to Indianapolis on Saturday.
Analysis: Freiermuth had a standout performance against the Bengals in Week 12 when he secured nine of 11 targets for 120 yards, but his impact has been much more limited over three appearances since then. Across the last three matchups, he's secured nine of 16 targets for 63 yards, and he's been held below 30 receiving yards in each of those outings. The 25-year-old remains the top tight end for the Steelers and has some upside potential, but his recent results have been discouraging.

Quiet night in loss
Freiermuth brought in three of seven targets for 18 yards and also recorded a two-point conversion catch in the Steelers' 21-18 loss to the Patriots on Thursday night.
Analysis: Mitch Trubisky's struggles with efficiency Thursday impacted Freiermuth, with the tight end finishing with his fifth sub-20-yard tally of the campaign in the process. Freiermuth did manage to boost his overall fantasy production to a modest degree with his two-point conversion reception following the Steelers' final touchdown of the night in the fourth quarter. However, he remains very hard to trust due to Pittsburgh's quarterback issues heading into a Week 15 road matchup against the Colts on…read more

Regresses in loss
Freiermuth caught three of five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Freiermuth came back down to earth after posting his first career 100-yard performance against the Bengals in the previous game. Starting quarterback Kenny Pickett hurt his ankle in the first half against Arizona, and Freiermuth couldn't get on the same page with backup Mitch Trubisky. With Pickett expected to remain sidelined Thursday against New England, Freiermuth will likely have Trubisky throwing to him again Week 14.

Career-best performance
Freiermuth recorded nine receptions on 11 targets for 120 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: George Pickens was the expected beneficiary of the Steelers' change in offensive coordinator, but Freiermuth was the most productive pass catcher for the team. He tallied the first 100-yard game of his career thanks to long catches of 29, 24 and 16 yards. It was a notable development for Freiermuth, as Pittsburgh has struggled to complete passes over the middle of the field this season. He had double-digit receiving yards in a game just once entering Sunday's contest.

No impact in return
Freiermuth recorded one reception on one target for seven yards in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Freiermuth was activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's game and took the field for the first time since Week 4. The entire Pittsburgh offense was muted, and his results were no different. Prior to going down with the injury, Freiermuth had inconsistent usage but never saw more than four targets in a game. Given the current state of the Steelers' offense, it's difficult to project consistent volume for him moving forward.

Making return Week 11
Freiermuth (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth is back in action Week 11 after he missed the Steelers' last five games with a hamstring injury. Before being reinstated from injured reserve Saturday, Freiermuth turned in full practices Thursday and Friday, so he's unlikely to face any major restrictions as he steps back into the lineup as the Steelers' top tight end. Freiermuth supplied an 8-53-2 receiving line on 13 targets in his first four appearances of the season before missing time with the hamstring issue.

Comes off IR
The Steelers activated Freiermuth (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Freiermuth now appears on track for Sunday's game against the Browns, but official word on his status may have to wait until 90 minutes before the game's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. The starting tight end hasn't played since Week 4 due to a hamstring issue, and his return could provide a notable boost for Pittsburgh's passing game. Though Freiermuth is averaging only 13.3 yards per game this season, he has scored twice across four appearances.

Expected to be activated from IR
The Steelers are expected to add Freiermuth (hamstring) to the 53-man roster Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth was designated for a return to practice from IR earlier this week, and it looks like he's on track to gain full clearance in time for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Browns. If so, Pittsburgh will officially announce the transaction ahead of Saturday's 4:00 p.m. ET deadline. If back on the field, Freiermuth will offer a notable boost for Kenny Pickett and the Steelers' passing game versus Cleveland.

Listed as questionable
Freiermuth (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth is on track to play after closing out the week with back-to-back full practices, but we won't know for sure until the Steelers activate him from injured reserve (or not). The deadline is 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, and quotes from the tight end dating back to last week suggest he expects to return from a four-game absence for Sunday's AFC North matchup. Connor Heyward and Darnell Washington split TE snaps for Pittsburgh the past four weeks, combining for 14 catches and 108 yards…read more

Analysis: Freiermuth's reps were capped Wednesday in what was his first practice session since Week 4, but his ability to take every rep a day later seemingly has him trending toward making his return to the lineup Sunday at Cleveland. For his part, Freiermuth said that he's felt "amazing" during his first two practices this week, but the Steelers' coaching and training staff will continue to monitor him before deciding on his status for the Week 11 game.

Nearing return, could play Week 11
Freiermuth (hamstring) plans to resume practicing next week and hopes to be ready to play when first eligible to return from injured reserve Nov. 19 at Cleveland, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth has been dealing with a hamstring injury since Week 4 and was placed on IR before Week 7. He'll miss a fourth straight game when the Steelers host the Packers this Sunday, but after that he's eligible to return and apparently has a realistic chance to do so. He worked out to the side Wednesday while his teammates practiced, telling reporters afterward that he didn't want to "jinx" anything by being too optimistic or hopeful about his health.

Put on IR
Freiermuth (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: The big tight end evidently suffered some sort of setback after practicing fully Wednesday following the team's Week 5 bye, logging a LP and DNP sequence in the ensuing days. In Freiermuth's lone absence during Week 4, rookie third-round pick Darnell Washington saw a significant rise in snaps, but it was Connor Heyward who ultimately saw significantly more targets.

Sitting again Week 7
Freiermuth (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Analysis: Freiermuth's week got off to a promising start when he practiced fully Wednesday, but he was limited Thursday and didn't practice at all Friday. In Freiermuth's absence, rookie Darnell Washington is likely to lead Pittsburgh's tight ends in snaps, but the majority of pass-catching opportunities could go to Connor Heyward, who has 10 targets to Washington's three this season. The Rams have allowed the second-most receiving yards (414) to tight ends in 2023.

Analysis: Per Pelissero, Freiermuth aggravated his hamstring injury during practice Thursday, and now it looks like he'll be sidelined Sunday and possibly beyond. Official confirmation of Freiermuth's Week 7 status will arrive later Friday, but if he is ruled out, fellow TE Darnell Washington would continue to see added work in the Steelers offense.

Analysis: Freiermuth worked fully Wednesday in the Steelers' first practice after a bye week, so his limited participation Thursday is notable.

Analysis: Freiermuth missed the Steelers' Week 5 win over the Ravens with a hamstring injury, but the team's Week 6 bye gave the tight end the time he needed to get back to 100 percent in advance of this Sunday's game against the Rams. In four games this season, Freiermuth has been limited to eight catches on 13 targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns.

Head coach Mike Tomlin said he expects Freiermuth (hamstring) to practice Wednesday, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Tomlin didn't disclose whether Freiermuth will be returning as a limited or full practice participant, but the tight end's ability to get on the field in any capacity to begin the week is a promising sign after he sat out the Steelers' Week 5 win over the Ravens with a hamstring injury. Following the team's Week 6 bye, Freiermuth appears to be tracking toward a return to the lineup this Sunday versus the Rams.

Freiermuth (hamstring) said Monday he expects to suit up versus the Rams in Week 7, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth appears to have made significant strides in his recovery during Pittsburgh's bye. The starting tight end's hamstring strain sidelined him Week 5 versus the Ravens, but the timing of the Steelers' bye ultimately could mean that Freiermuth is only forced to miss one game. It will be worth closely monitoring his practice status when Wednesday's first official injury report of the week is released.

Analysis: Freiermuth didn't practice all week, and with the Steelers on bye in Week 6, the tight end's next chance to see game action will arrive Sunday, Oct. 22 against the Rams. Given that Freiermuth is out this weekend, rookie Darnell Washington figures to see an increased role and could get his first NFL start versus Baltimore, with Connor Heyward and Rodney Williams also on hand.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has labeled Freiermuth (hamstring) as "very doubtful" for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Steelers may wait until Friday to formally rule Freiermuth out, but the tight end doesn't look set to practice in any capacity this week after exiting a Week 4 loss to the Texans with a strained hamstring. Expect rookie Darnell Washington to serve as the Steelers' starting tight end in Week 5, while second-year man Connor Heyward should also see increased reps.

Expected to miss multiple games
Freiermuth (hamstring) is expected to miss 2-to-3 weeks, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: After Freiermuth went down with a hamstring injury in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Texans, the tight end appears likely to miss multiple contests. The Steelers are already without wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring) until at least Week 7 while he's on injured reserve, so players like George Pickens and Calvin Austin could see a slight uptick in usage next week versus Baltimore. Rookie tight end Darnell Washington will have an opportunity to serve as the team's starter for the time being.

Getting hamstring examined
Freiermuth is scheduled to get imaging on his hamstring Monday, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Dulac notes that while the Steelers don't yet know the full extent of the injury, the tight end is dealing with more than a minor tweak. Freiermuth's status for Week 5 against the Ravens appears to be up in the air after the hamstring injury forced him out of Sunday's loss to the Texans in the second half. Darnell Washington, a 2023 third-round pick, would likely be in line to start at tight end if Freiermuth isn't available, while Connor Heyward also could see an expanded profile on offense.

Freiermuth had three receptions on four targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-18 win over Las Vegas.
Analysis: Freiermuth finally delivered a complete line for fantasy managers after a pair of one-catch games to start the year. The 2021 second-round pick finished tied for second on the Steelers in targets during a game in which his team had more rushing than passing attempts. Freiermuth has an opportunity to become quarterback Kenny Pickett's No. 2 option behind George Pickens with Diontae Johnson (hamstring) on IR and Allen Robinson struggling to fit into Pittsburgh's offense.

Analysis: Freiermuth exited last week's regular-season opener with a chest injury but didn't appear to have significant limitations Monday while playing 76 percent of the team's offensive snaps. While the 2021 second-rounder managed to prop up his fantasy output by reaching the end zone in Week 1, he was unable to do the same against Cleveland in prime time.

Upgraded to full practice Friday
Freiermuth (chest) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Freiermuth was a limited participant in the Steelers' first Week 2 practice Thursday, but his upgrade to full activity Friday should clear the way for him to play in Monday's game against the Browns.

May be limited during Week 2 prep
Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Freiermuth (chest) may be limited to begin Week 2 prep, but he's optimistic about the tight end's health, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth was on the receiving end of a big hit from the 49ers' Ambry Thomas just before halftime of Sunday's season opener, but the tight end stayed in the game and scored the Steelers' only touchdown before departing in the second half. A chest injury is to blame, but with an extra day to prepare for Monday's contest against the Browns, he may have a better chance of suiting up. Thursday's practice report will set the tone for his Week 2 availability.

Freiermuth wasn't targeted in Thursday's preseason game at Atlanta and finishes the preseason with two catches for 31 yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: The tight end accounted for only two of 15 targets from QB Kenny Pickett this preseason, but Freiermuth is still a strong candidate to serve as the third option (or even second) in an offense that figures to start Diontae Johnson and George Pickens at wide receiver while using Allen Robinson as the No. 3 and primary slot man.

Analysis: Freiermuth has logged exactly seven offensive snaps in both of Pittsburgh's exhibitions to date, catching two passes for 31 yards and a TD on two targets.

He's played only briefly during the preseason, though he's still managed to show rapport with quarterback Kenny Pickett.

Good to go
Freiermuth (knee) did team drills Thursday at the first practice of training camp, Jeff Hathhorn of 93.7 The FAN reports.
Analysis: This come as no surprise given that Freiermuth participated in OTA practices in late May and June. He avoided offseason surgery after suffering MCL and ACL sprains in Week 18 last season, and he's locked in as one of the top receiving threats for second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett.

Practicing this offseason
Freiermuth (knee) has been practicing during OTAs this offseason, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth sustained an MCL sprain during the Steelers' regular-season finale in January, but he appears to be back to full health now that the team has begun offseason activities. The 24-year-old enters the 2023 campaign as Pittsburgh's clear No. 1 tight end after securing 63 of 98 targets for 732 yards and two touchdowns last season.

Nursing knee sprain
Freiermuth suffered a knee sprain during Sunday's 28-14 win over the Browns, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth was forced out of Sunday's season finale with a left knee sprain before recording a catch, but he's at least avoided a worst-case scenario injury. Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that the tight end has an ACL and MCL sprain, but won't need surgery. What remains to be seen is when Freiermuth will be ready for offseason activities. He racked up 63 catches for 732 and two touchdowns on 98 targets in his second NFL season.

Leads team with 36 yards
Freiermuth caught three of six targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over Baltimore.
Analysis: Freiermuth was the Steelers' leading receiver in a contest during which neither quarterback sniffed 200 yards passing. Aside from his zero-target game against the Panthers in Week 15, the reliable tight end has provided a solid floor for fantasy managers at a position without much stability in 2022. Freiermuth carries a 63-732-2 receiving line into the final tilt of the regular season against the Browns on Sunday.

Bounces back against Raiders
Freiermuth recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 66 yards in Saturday's 13-10 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Freiermuth bounced back from a zero-catch performance in Week 15 to lead the Steelers in catches and yards. His effort was highlighted by 17- and 15-yard gains during the second half. Freiermuth has been affected by the Steelers' inconsistent offense, as he's topped 50 receiving yards in just three of his last seven games.

Not targeted Sunday
Freiermuth was not targeted in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Freiermuth's previous season low for targets was four, so Sunday's lack of involvement from quarterback Mitch Trubisky certainly came as a surprise. Following an uncharacteristic goose egg, Freiermuth will now wait to see whether rookie Kenny Pickett (concussion) can return for Week 16's game versus the Raiders.

Good to go after limited practice
Freiermuth (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: One limited practice after two missed sessions was all it took to get Freiermuth's name off the injury report. The tight end will work as a security blanket for whichever quarterback gets the nod under center. Mason Rudolph and Mitch Trubisky split first-team reps during the week, while Kenny Pickett (concussion) is listed as doubtful.

Managing foot issue
Freiermuth played through a foot injury in Sunday's 16-14 loss to the Ravens, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: The foot issue explains why Freiermuth played only 57 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps in the loss, though the tight end at least came through for fantasy managers by producing three catches for 33 yards and a touchdown. The injury could be something that affects his practice participation in Week 15, but at this stage the Steelers seem to believe that he'll be available for Sunday's matchup with the Panthers.

Reaches end zone in loss
Freiermuth secured three of six targets for 33 yards and a touchdown during the Steelers' 16-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: While Freiermuth had his lowest yardage total since Week 5 during Sunday's narrow loss to Baltimore, he managed to reach the end zone for the first time since Week 2. However, the 24-year-old has seen a slight decrease in playing time recently, while Zach Gentry's snap count has increased. Despite the similar snap counts of late, Freiermuth has been much more involved in Pittsburgh's passing game.

Racks up 76 yards
Freiermuth recorded three catches on five targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Freiermuth was involved early, tallying two receptions for 19 yards on Pittsburgh's first possession. He managed only one catch thereafter, though he accounted for Pittsburgh's longest play from scrimmage with a 57-yard catch midway through the second quarter. Freiermuth continues to serve as a key target for rookie Kenny Pickett, as he now has at least three catches in each of his last six games. In that same span, he's topped 75 yards on three occasions.

Just four targets in Indy
Freiermuth caught three of four targets for 39 yards in Monday's 24-17 win over the Colts.
Analysis: His only catch of the second half was a big one, as Freiermuth gained 17 yards down to the three-yard line on 3rd-and-six. Three plays later, Benny Snell punched in what turned out to be the game-winning touchdown on the ground. Freiermuth has at least 36 receiving yards in each of his past five games, but the second-year tight end will be looking for his first touchdown since Week 2 when the Steelers travel to Atlanta in Week 13.

Paces team in catches, targets
Freiermuth caught eight of 12 targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 37-30 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Freiermuth led the Steelers in targets for a second consecutive week while setting a new season high in that category and also tying his season-high total in catches. His only touchdown came back in Week 2, but the second-year tight end has racked up at least 75 receiving yards in four of nine appearances this season. Freiermuth should remain a key target for rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett in Week 12 against the Colts.

Freiermuth secured four of seven targets for 36 yards during the Steelers' 20-10 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Freiermuth has drawn at least seven targets in each of his three appearances since returning to action from a concussion, but he managed only four receptions Sunday and was held under 40 yards for the third time this season. The 2021 second-rounder has nearly matched his yardage total from a year ago, as he's secured 36 of 55 targets for 403 yards and a touchdown over his first eight appearances in 2022.

Tallies 57 receiving yards
Freiermuth recorded four receptions on seven targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 35-13 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Freiermuth finished behind only Diontae Johnson in targets and has at least seven targets in five of his seven games this season. He wasn't particularly efficient in Sunday's loss, though he still managed lengthy receptions of 21 and 18 yards. Volume alone makes Freiermuth valuable given that he plays tight end, though the poor state of the Steelers' offense continues to limit his ability to find the end zone and perform consistently.

Now that he's on the injury report with an ankle issue, the tight end's status is worth monitoring in the coming days, but so far there's nothing to suggest that Freiermuth's availability for Sunday's game against the Eagles is in danger.

Analysis: Freiermuth missed last week's win over the Buccaneers due to a concussion, but he returned to action in Week 7 and led the Steelers in receiving yards during their narrow loss. The 23-year-old's efficiency has been somewhat inconsistent early in the year, but he's been targeted at least seven times in four of his first six appearances of the season.

Analysis: Freiermuth is on track to return from a one-game absence and suit up versus the Dolphins on Sunday Night Football.

Finds end zone against New England
Freiermuth hauled in four of seven targets for 22 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Freiermuth was much less efficient against the Patriots after catching five passes for 75 yards during last week's season-opening win over Cincinnati, but he was the only Pittsburgh pass catcher to reach the end zone during Sunday's low-scoring loss in Week 2. The 23-year-old had a late-season surge as a rookie in 2021, and he's gotten off to a hot start to begin the 2022 campaign even though the Steelers' offense has failed to top 200 yards in either of the first two games.

Strong showing in Week 1
Freiermuth caught five passes on 10 targets for 75 yards in an overtime win against Cincinnati on Sunday.
Analysis: It was a borderline excellent performance by Freiermuth given the mediocre quarterback play of Mitch Trubisky. Freiermuth knows how to read defensive leverage and find weak spots even a bad quarterback can hit, then he plays rugged through contact to make the most of the target. He may not become a top-shelf fantasy option as long as the quarterback play is subpar, but Freiermuth's own abilities are increasingly difficult to question.

These stats don't count yet, but those who were hoping for the second-year tight end to build off his solid rookie campaign (497 yards and seven touchdowns) have to be pleased with his performance.

Racks up 35 yards
Freiermuth caught both of his targets for 35 yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Freiermuth saw his first action of the preseason and played the entire first half with both Mitch Trubisky and Kenny Pickett under center. The second-year tight end only caught passes from Pickett, highlighted by a 24-yard gain just before halftime that set up a touchdown. Freiermuth will look to build off a solid rookie season, though he'll be catching passes from a new quarterback while also facing increased competition for targets due to the addition of rookie wide receiver George Pickens.

Expects 800 or 900 yards this year
Freiermuth said he expects to reach 800 or 900 yards this year, noting that his rookie-year average of 8.3 yards per catch was "atrocious", Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth had a solid debut campaign in 2021 even with the poor per-catch average, scoring seven TDs while seeing 20 of his 79 targets in the red zone. All those looks near the goal line tend to depress yardage averages like YPC and YPT, though the trade off is mostly a good one for fantasy. The bigger factor in Freiermuth's lack of yardage (497 from 60 catches) was a 5.5 aDOT, placing him 19th out of 25 TEs with 50-plus targets. That number could rise as Freiermuth improves his route-running…read more

Analysis: Freiermuth returned after missing Week 17 while in the concussion protocols and was a consistent outlet for quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. However, his underneath presence didn't yield much yardage on a night Roethlisberger averaged a paltry 2.7 yards per attempt.

Analysis: Freiermuth was unable to return to Sunday's win over the Titans after he took a hard hit in the third quarter, and he was placed in the league's concussion protocol after the game. If he hopes to play Sunday against Kansas City, he'll presumably need to return to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday. If the 23-year-old is unavailable in Week 16, Zach Gentry should serve as the Steelers' top tight end.

Following concussion protocol
Freiermuth was placed in the NFL's five-step concussion protocol after exiting Sunday's 19-13 win over the Titans with a head injury, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth contributed four receptions for 37 yards on four targets before departing. With the rookie tight end now in the concussion protocol, he'll likely be listed as a limited or non-participant when Pittsburgh resumes practicing Wednesday. In order to make himself eligible to play this weekend in Kansas City, Freiermuth will need to resume taking contact in addition to receiving clearance from an independent neurologist.

Won't return to Sunday's game
Freiermuth (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Titans.

Freiermuth exited Sunday's game against the Titans to be evaluated for a concussion, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth totaled four catches for 37 yards before leaving the contest during the third quarter. Zach Gentry will work as Pittsburgh's No. 1 tight end while Freiermuth is sidelined.

Bittersweet night in loss
Freiermuth brought in two of three targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' 36-28 loss to the Vikings on Thursday night.
Analysis: The rookie tight end played a key role in the Steelers' second-half comeback, but his inability to come up with a would-be touchdown grab as time expired also ensured that rally would fall short. Freiermuth got into the end zone from 15 yards out with 4:14 remaining to help bring Pittsburgh within eight points; however, he subsequently was stripped of the ball by Harrison Smith on a perfect throw from Ben Roethlisberger as time expired that would have brought the Steelers within a two-point…read more

Totals 26 yards in Week 13
Freiermuth secured three of four targets for 26 yards and caught a two-point conversion in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Freiermuth sustained a concussion in last week's loss to Cincinnati, but he was a full participant in each of the Steelers' three practice sessions this week and didn't appear to be on a snap count against the Ravens, as the rookie was on the field for 73 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Freiermuth has been targeted at least four times in each of the last seven games, and he's brought in 32 of 44 targets for 253 yards and five touchdowns during that time.

Cleared for Sunday's game
Freiermuth (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The tight end, who suffered a concussion during Week 12 action, practiced fully this past week and has been cleared to play versus Baltimore. With Eric Ebron (knee) on injured reserve, Freiermuth is the Steelers' clear-cut top option at his position, a context that puts him on track for enough snaps and targets to merit weekly fantasy consideration.

Logs another full session
Freiermuth (concussion) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Back-to-back full sessions have Freiermuth trending toward suiting up Sunday against the Ravens. Friday's final injury report will reveal whether he has fully cleared concussion protocol and if so, the Steelers' top tight end will head into the weekend minus a Week 13 injury designation.

Practices fully
Freiermuth (concussion) was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: The Steelers haven't indicated that Freiermuth has been removed from the NFL's concussion protocol, so while his full participation in practice to begin Week 13 prep is a positive sign, he may need clearance from an independent neurologist in order to play Sunday against the Ravens. With Eric Ebron (knee) on injured reserve, Freiermuth is the Steelers' clear-cut top pass-catching tight end when healthy, with Zach Gentry and Kevin Rader behind him as depth options at the position.

Going through concussion protocol
Freiermuth is in the concussion protocol, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth was examined for a head injury in the aftermath of Sunday's 41-10 loss at Cincinnati after hauling in all four of his targets for 40 yards and one touchdown. He'll need to clear league protocols in order to be available for game action, but getting back on the practice field quickly would be an indication that Freiermuth is making progress. With Eric Ebron (knee) on injured reserve, Zach Gentry and Kevin Rader currently are the healthiest tight ends on the Steelers' active roster.

Scores TD, suffers concussion
Freiermuth (concussion) caught all four targets for 40 yards and a touchdown Sunday, but he had to be evaluated for a concussion after a 41-10 loss to the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Eric Ebron (knee) was placed on injured reserve this week, so Freiermuth resumed his role as the Steelers' unchallenged starting tight end. While the 22-year-old posted a strong fantasy line, he was forced to exit the game late after a hit to the head and will likely have to go through the league's concussion protocol this week. If Freiermuth is unable to go, Zach Gentry will be asked to start against the Ravens next Sunday.

Finds end zone in loss
Freiermuth had four receptions (seven targets) for 11 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-37 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Freiermuth saved what would have been a dreadful fantasy performance with a five-yard touchdown reception in the final minutes of a wild Sunday Night Football matchup. Fellow tight end Eric Ebron also hit pay dirt, but he finished with four fewer targets than Freiermuth. The rookie tight end doesn't have a ton of upside -- especially with Ebron back in the mix -- but Freiermuth does have utility as a red-zone target with four touchdowns over the last four weeks. Up next is a matchup against the…read more

Coughs up late fumble
Freiermuth hauled in five of nine targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 16-16 tie against the Lions.
Analysis: Freiermuth had scored three touchdowns across the last two games, but he failed to reach the end zone in Sunday's matchup. The rookie also committed a fumble late in overtime as the Steelers approached field-goal range. In spite of his late blunder, Freiermuth's nine targets represented his highest total of the season, even though fellow tight end Eric Ebron was active.

Catches two touchdowns
Freiermuth caught five of six targets for 43 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 29-27 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Freiermuth hauled in both of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's touchdown passes, continuing his strong recent stretch. The rookie's first score came after Roethlisberger extended the play and found him in the end zone from four yards, then Freiermuth fought through a defensive pass-interference call to secure a contested, 10-yard TD in the third quarter. Since wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) went down in Week 5, Freiermuth has enjoyed a larger role in Pittsburgh's offense, totaling 16…read more

Secures second touchdown
Freiermuth caught four of seven targets for 44 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 15-10 win over Cleveland.
Analysis: The rookie tight end ranked second on the team in targets behind top wideout Diontae Johnson, and it's the second straight week he's been targeted seven times. Freiermuth had only 11 receptions for 100 yards and one score across the first five weeks of the season, but he's been more involved the past two games with 11 catches for 102 yards and a touchdown.

Poised for added looks
Freiermuth is expected to have an elevated workload in Sunday's game at Cleveland with Eric Ebron (hamstring) sidelined, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.
Analysis: Ebron injured his hamstring at Thursday's practice and didn't get on the field Friday, paving the way for Freiermuth to make his fourth start of the season. Freiermuth is coming off a season-best performance Week 6 against the Seahawks -- seven catches (on seven targets) for 58 yards on 60 percent snap share -- and now the rookie second-round pick seems poised for a career-best share of the offensive plays.

Racks up 58 yards
Freiermuth hauled in all seven of his targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over Seattle.
Analysis: Freiermuth had been limited to just three receptions for 18 yards across the last two weeks, but he set the highest marks of his career in receptions and yards during Sunday's prime-time matchup. He outpaced Eric Ebron in offensive snaps for the fifth time in six weeks and has hauled in 18 of 20 targets for 158 yards and a touchdown so far this year.

Targeted twice in Week 5
Freiermuth hauled in both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 27-19 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Freiermuth had recorded at least 11 yards in each of his first four appearances of the season, but he had minimal production while splitting time with Eric Ebron and Zach Gentry. The rookie has a more favorable matchup against Seattle in Week 6, but he's been unable to secure a significant role to begin his career.

Muted role against Green Bay
Freiermuth secured his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Freiermuth was targeted nine times across the last two games and caught his first NFL touchdown in Week 3, but he was less involved against the Packers on Sunday. He logged a career-low 11 yards in the loss but was still slightly more productive than fellow tight end Eric Ebron, who secured both of his targets for eight yards. The rookie will attempt to get back on track in a tough matchup at home against the Broncos in Week 5.

Catches touchdown in loss
Freiermuth hauled in three of five targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Freiermuth had been on the field for at least 50 percent of the team's offensive snaps in each of the first two weeks of the season, but he played just 36 percent of the offensive snaps in Week 3. However, he saw a season-high five targets and brought in his first career touchdown in the loss. Across his first three NFL games, the second-rounder has brought in eight of 10 targets for 82 yards and a touchdown.

Tallies four receptions
Freiermuth brought in all four of his targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 26-17 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Freiermuth was targeted just once in his NFL debut against the Bills last week, but he was more involved in the passing game during Sunday's loss. Eric Ebron saw two targets in Week 2, but Freiermuth drew the start against the Raiders and has carved out a modest role early in his NFL career.

Tops 20 yards in debut
Freiermuth hauled in his lone target for 24 yards in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Although Freiermuth was targeted just once in his NFL debut, he made the most of his opportunity by racking up 24 yards on his first career catch. The 2021 second-rounder started alongside veteran tight end Eric Ebron in Sunday's win, and it appears as though both of them will have a role in the Steelers' offense to begin the year.

Breaks out with two touchdowns
Freiermuth secured two of three targets for 19 yards and two touchdowns in the Steelers' 26-20 preseason win over the Lions on Saturday night.
Analysis: The rookie tight end flashed his height, leaping ability and sure hands on his two grabs, which came from 11 and eight yards out. Freiermuth impressively went up high near the back line of the end zone to snare the first scoring throw from Ben Roethlisberger and he made an impressive catch in tight coverage on the second touchdown. The red-zone usage was certainly encouraging from a fantasy perspective, and although veteran Eric Ebron will certainly command his share of targets near the end…read more

Suits up in Philly
Freiermuth (shoulder) caught his only target for six yards in Thursday's 24-16 preseason win over Philadelphia.
Analysis: Freiermuth made his Steelers debut after sitting out the Hall of Fame Game against the Cowboys. The rookie second-round pick was called for a holding penalty on Pittsburgh's opening drive but managed to catch a pass in the second quarter. With established veteran Eric Ebron topping the tight end depth chart in Pittsburgh, Freiermuth will likely be brought along slowly, though he'll try to outplay Ebron when the Lions come to town for more preseason action next week.

Practices Tuesday
Freiermuth (shoulder) participated in Tuesday's practice, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Freiermuth suffered a shoulder injury last week and was unable to appear in the Hall of Fame Game against Dallas. However, the 22-year-old's return to practice signals that he could make his NFL debut in Thursday's exhibition game against the Eagles. Freiermuth had performed well early in camp before he suffered his shoulder injury, and he's expected to compete for a role in Pittsburgh's offense ahead of his rookie season.

Unlikely to play Thursday
Freiermuth (shoulder) doesn't appear as if he'll play in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game against the Cowboys, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Analysis: The Steelers are taking a prudent approach with the rookie second-rounder after he injured his left shoulder at Tuesday's practice. Freiermuth's pro debut thus will have to wait until preseason Week 1 next Thursday in Philadelphia, at the earliest.

Hurts shoulder
Freiermuth had ice taped to his left shoulder following an early exit from Tuesday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The timing of the injury, even if it's minor, likely will prevent Freiermuth from making his NFL debut in the Hall of Fame Game against Dallas on Thursday. The rookie second-round pick reportedly has looked good through the first week of training camp, and he'll have three additional chances to suit up in exhibitions before the games begin to count. While unlikely to make a run at the Week 1 starting job, Freiermuth could poach some snaps and targets from fellow tight end Eric Ebron.
