Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth logged two receptions for 51 yards on three targets in a 37-15 win over the New York Jets. Freiermuth was surprisingly given fewer opportunities than fellow tight end Darnell Washington, who earned a career-high four targets. Still, Freiermuth outgained Washington and was extremely effective with limited touches. He turned a short completion from Russell Wilson into a 30-yard gain in the second quarter and later came down with a 21-yard deep ball. Pittsburgh's passing attack was more aggressive and fast-paced with Wilson at the helm, which should prove beneficial to Freiermuth going forward. He'll remain on the fantasy radar for a Week 8 meeting with the New York Giants.
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth is currently the fantasy TE9 in half-PPR scoring and will hope to stay steady against the New York Jets in Week 7. Freiermuth is playing on the vast majority of offensive snaps and has been the second-most targeted Steelers pass-catcher through the first six weeks of the season. Of course, all of these opportunities have come with Justin Fields under center, and there seems to be a strong possibility that Russell Wilson will take over as QB1 on Sunday night. Freiermuth's role in the offense should be consistent either way, but he may struggle to make much of an impact against a Jets defense surrendering the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends. Although fantasy managers that have been rolling with Freiermuth may not have a better option available to them, the 25-year-old should only be viewed as a middling TE2 this week.
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth caught two of his three targets for 16 yards in a 32-13 win against the Las Vegas Raiders. Freiermuth was on a two-game touchdown streak heading into the contest but failed to extend it. He came up short of making a significant impact in the passing game with his lowest reception and yardage totals of the campaign. The fourth-year pro is maintaining a role in the offense, but it is difficult to project him for weekly fantasy success with Pittsburgh's passing attack struggling to find its footing. That's unlikely to change in a difficult matchup against the New York Jets in Week 7.
