Freiermuth recorded four receptions on four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over Denver. The Steelers ran a very conservative offense in the win, leaving Freiermith as the team's leader in receptions and yards. His longest gain of the day went for 14 yards midway through the first quarter, a catch that set up the only touchdown of the game for either team. Preseason concerns about a diminished role in the offense for Freiermuth appear unfounded through two games, but the lack of aggression has limited the potential of all of Pittsburgh's pass catchers.

Freiermuth only had four catches for 27 yards on four targets in Week 1 at Atlanta, but Justin Fields only attempted 23 passes. Freiermuth was second on the Steelers in targets behind George Pickens (seven), and Pickens could be in trouble in Week 2 at Denver thanks to Patrick Surtain Jr. That could make Freiermuth a popular option for Fields, and Freiermuth should be considered a low-end starter in all leagues.

Freiermuth secured all four of his targets for 27 yards during Sunday's 18-10 win over Atlanta. Shortly after signing his four-year contract extension with the Steelers on Friday, Freiermuth was featured fairly prominently in the Steelers' Week 1 win, finishing second on the team in receptions and receiving yards. The 25-year-old was an inconsistent contributor during the 2023 campaign, posting single-digit yards in three of his first four appearances of the season. However, he could see more targets in 2024 now that Diontae Johnson, Allen Robinson and Miles Boykin are no longer with the team, and tight-end friendly coordinator Arthur Smith is calling plays.

We haven't seen much from Freiermuth in the preseason, but I'm hopeful that all of the offseason buzz we got about Freiermuth and Russell Wilson starts to show this week now that Wilson is healthy from the calf injury that sidelined him in training camp. Arthur Smith loves using his tight ends, and Freiermuth should be the primary receiving threat at the position for the Steelers. He's worth using as a streamer against the Falcons, who last year allowed the sixth-most Fantasy points to opposing tight ends.
