Pat Fry, Titan 22, last guy in this tier. His routes have been going up and down a little bit. Aaron Rogers has an affinity for just force feeding the ball to Darnell Washington in the red zone. It is still an offense that's heavily flown through DK Metaf first.

TE22; limited role behind Metcalf and Washington despite soft schedule.

Ian Hartitz ranks Pat Freiermuth as TE22 for Week 5. His routes have been fluctuating between low 60s and mid-70s, and Aaron Rodgers has an affinity for force-feeding Darnell Washington in the red zone. The Steelers offense flows heavily through DK Metcalf first with Roman Wilson picking it up as well, leaving limited opportunity for Freiermuth. Hartitz notes the Steelers have one of the top five easiest schedules for tight ends over weeks 5–10, but would need to see Freiermuth get a full-time role and more targets to be excited; a Michael Pittman injury could help, but that's speculative.
