Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Pat Freiermuth

TE17; inconsistent TD-dependent, shares goal-line work with Washington.

Ranked tight end 17 for Week 8; represents typical tight end inconsistency. Had three touchdowns between Weeks 4-5 while playing a full-time role but followed with 11 and 22 scoreless yard duds in the next two weeks. Problem is Darnell Washington also gets Aaron Rodgers' attention at the goal line. Freiermuth has 5 red zone targets this year with 4 going for touchdowns, so the issue is goal-line opportunity distribution rather than performance. Steelers offense is cooking relatively well but spreads things out around the goal line, limiting Freiermuth's consistent scoring upside despite efficient production.
