On the field, Pittsburgh Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth’s contributions have been limited. Held to eight receptions in four games, he’s on pace to have easily the quietest season of his career. His snap count has been reduced while big-bodied blocker Darnell Washington and sixth offensive lineman Spencer Anderson have taken his place. But Freiermuth played a role in creating a Steelers offense that looks cohesive, doing something for Aaron Rodgers that no other teammate had ever done before.
Earlier this week, NFL reporter and co-host of Good Morning Football Jamie Erdahl dropped this nugget of background information.
“We met with [Aaron Rodgers] as a broadcast crew the other day, and I’ll leave you guys with this,” Erdahl said.
