Carnell Tate targets Pat Freiermuth over 29.5 receiving yards in Week 7 vs. Saints, the number two matchup for tight end targets vs. expectation. Freiermuth is not on the injury report this week after a late-week calf injury last week; he's fully practicing. With Pitman and Wilson out, the Saints defense will concentrate targets on two wide receivers and then sprinkle the rest to tight ends and running backs. Freiermuth historically goes over this line in 4 of 5 weeks when not playing injured, with a 60–65% over rate expected.PositiveProjectionOct 15, 2026
Freiermuth stands out as a top tight end play in Week 6; the Steelers–Packers game is one of the top three matchups for tight ends this season. Freiermuth excelled last week and is expected to excel again this week. He was signed as a free agent and is clearly the team's preferred tight end with a significant red-zone role and excellent play; with multiple receiver injuries, he occasionally lines up as a slot receiver.NegativeProjectionOct 13, 2026

Pat Freiermuth is a recommended start and waiver wire pickup due to the team's stated goal of increasing his involvement. He is currently projected as a top-10 to top-14 tight end with a safe floor of 3-4 receptions and 47 yards, with potential for a top-7 finish if he scores. Cooper Rush explicitly recommends starting him over Kyle Pitts due to a very favorable matchup.
