We love a specific and obscure stat around here. I’m late to realizing this one, but in last week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, Pat Freiermuth joined one of the rarest and quirkiest clubs. A breakout performance after weeks of invisibility, Freiermuth finished with five catches, 111 yards and two touchdowns.
When and how Freiermuth scored twice is notable. They came against long odds. His first score on 3rd and 18, his second on 2nd and 20. Back-breaking scores for the Bengals’ defense, huge moments for the Steelers’ offense. A reminder of those plays.
