FantasyPros Articles on Pat Freiermuth
From the article
Pat Freiermuth was the clear starting tight end for Pittsburgh with a 70.3% snap rate and 72.1% route share. He finished with a 12.2% target share, five receptions, 46 receiving yards (1.48 YPRR), and an 8.7% first-read share. That lowly first-read share scares me, though.
STACKED’s take
Freiermuth's low first-read share limits Week 2 upside despite TE6 finish; low-end streamer.
Freiermuth was the clear starting tight end for Pittsburgh in Week 1 with a 70.3% snap rate and 72.1% route share, finishing with a 12.2% target share, five receptions, 46 receiving yards (1.48 YPRR), 8.7% first-read share, two red zone targets, and a score as TE6 for the week. However, his lowly 8.7% first-read share concerns the source regarding whether he'll see the same usage in Week 2, as he's often not the first read for Aaron Rodgers. The matchup is ok but not amazing; New England ranked 17th in yards per target and 19th in fantasy points per opportunity allowed to tight ends. The source rates Freiermuth as a low-end streaming option for Week 2.
