? Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth received honorable mention in ESPN’s top 10 tight end rankings.
“Freiermuth’s proverbial third-season jump into the elite was sabotaged by a hamstring injury and poor quarterback play. He had 32 catches for 308 yards and two touchdowns in 12 games,” ESPN wrote.
One NFC executive said Freiermuth has the potential to be a top 10 tight end.
“He’s the guy who should be up there,” the NFC exec said. “He’s really skilled and savvy, knows how to get open. Just doesn’t have the production.”
