What kind of production will new Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron have in his first season with the team? Several months ago, Mike Clay of ESPN predicted that Ebron will catch 43 passes for 506 yards and 4 touchdowns in 2020. Quite honestly, that’s probably not a bad guess on his part and especially based only on how past free agent offensive weapons have performed for the Steelers in their first seasons since 2000 when Kevin Colbert became the team’s general manager.
Should Ebron indeed wind up catching more than 40 passes in 2020, he’ll essentially become the most prolific first-season free agent pass catcher the Steelers have ever had since Colbert arrived in 2000.
