In 2025, Pat Freiermuth faces a significant role shift with the Steelers. Despite leading TEs with a 21.54% Team Yards Share (TE4) in 2024, the addition of Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington threatens his target volume. His 5.94 targets per game (TE5) might dwindle as Smith splits routes, relegating Freiermuth to a rotational role. The arrival of Aaron Rodgers could enhance passing efficiency, but with DK Metcalf and George Pickens as primary targets, Freiermuth's 17.76% Air Yards Share (TE7) is unlikely to grow. His 31.77% Contested Catch Rate (TE8) remains a strength, but fantasy managers should view him as a streaming option outside the TE1 tier.
