What Another 60-Plus Reception Season For Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth Would Mean Historically

Through his first two NFL seasons, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth certainly has been productive, especially when it comes to his over reception numbers. After all, through two NFL seasons, Freiermuth has recorded at least 60 total receptions in each, joining only Keith Jackson as the only tight ends in NFL history to accomplish such a feat. No tight end in NFL history has hauled in 60 or more passes in each of his first three seasons though and it’s not unthinkable that Freiermuth could do just that in 2023.

Freiermuth has registered 123 receptions in the NFL, and should he catch at least 60 more in 2023, he would have no less than 183 for his young career.
