Pat "Muth" Freiermuth has established himself as a reliable pass-catching weapon for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Drafted in the second round (55th overall) of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Penn State, Freiermuth made an immediate impact by recording 60 catches and 7 receiving touchdowns during his rookie campaign.
Secured through a 4-year contract extension through the 2028 season, Freiermuth's combination of tough contested-catch ability, red zone instincts, and high catch rate keeps him as an indispensable component of Pittsburgh's offensive passing system.
Freiermuth starred at Penn State University, earning All-Big Ten honors before entering the 2021 NFL Draft.
Freiermuth signed a 4-year, $48.4 million contract extension in September 2024, keeping him in Pittsburgh through 2028.
Freiermuth has recorded over 20 career receiving touchdowns in his NFL tenure.
The nickname comes directly from his surname, accompanied by loud "Muuuth" chants from Steelers fans at Acrisure Stadium after every catch.
