Pat Freiermuth Listed As Non-Participant
2 years agoPittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (concussion) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. In addition to Freiermuth, Zach Gentry (knee) also missed practice, so the Steelers are hurting at the position heading into Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If both Freiermuth and Gentry are unable to play this weekend, Connor Heyward would be the Steelers' top pass-catching tight end. Before leaving last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills, Freiermuth caught both of his targets for 12 yards. Fantasy managers should consider him very questionable to play this Sunday, and if you've been rolling with him as your starting TE, you need to be looking for backup options in Week 6.
