Reliable Penn State TE with NFL-caliber hands and red-zone value
Pat Freiermuth is best known as a big, sure-handed tight end whose NFL production already reflects the traits that made him a Penn State standout: size, catch radius, seam-stretching ability, and dependable red-zone finishing. In 2025 with Pittsburgh, he posted 41 catches for 486 yards and 4 touchdowns, reinforcing his value as a chain-moving, mismatch weapon rather than a pure speed threat.[1][2] He’s a fit for teams that want a physical, high-IQ tight end who can win in traffic and make contested catches, with one-handed highlight plays underscoring his natural ball skills.[3][5]
