Throughout his career, the blocking of Pittsburgh Steelers’ tight end Pat Freiermuth has largely been in question.
At one point in the 2022 season, Freiermuth’s blocking was a major liability. That carried over into the 2023 season as early on Freiermuth was an absolute zero as a blocker for the Black and Gold before getting hurt and missing a chunk of games.
Now though, late in the season, Freiermuth has elevated his game as a blocker and is more than holding his own in that area. That was the case on Sunday in the 30-23 win over the Seattle Seahawks as Freiermuth, along with all of the Steelers’ tight ends, performed quite well as blockers as the Steelers ran a lot of 13 personnel.
