‘One Of The More Underrated Tight Ends In NFL’: Pat Freiermuth Named To CBS Sports’ All Under-25 Team

Through his first two seasons in the NFL, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth has been quite the offensive weapon.

Freiermuth, who is entering his age-25 season (he turns 25 in late October), has been one of the more productive tight ends in the NFL over the last two seasons. Freiermuth has hauled in 123 passes for 1,229 yards and nine touchdowns in his first two years in 32 games. That included a stellar rookie season in 2021 with Ben Roethlisberger under center, hauling in 60 passes for 497 yards and seven touchdowns. In Year Two, Freiermuth increased his receptions to 63 and yards to 732, but the touchdowns didn’t follow as the Steelers had some struggles in the red zone offensively.
