Steelers Announce Surprising Pat Freiermuth Injury Before Bucs Game

Another Pittsburgh Steelers pass catcher is dealing with an injury ahead of the team's Week 6 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (88) catches a wide open pass for a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter of the NFL Week 7 game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Paycor Stadium in downtown Cincinnati on Thursday, Oct. 16, 2025.

Another Pittsburgh Steelers pass catcher is dealing with an injury.

While the Steelers announced that DK Metcalf (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of their Week 6 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, per the team's senior director of communications Burt Lauten, Pat Freiermuth (calf) has been added to it and is now questionable.

Pittsburgh is incredibly thin at wide receiver even with Metcalf now being good to go vs. Tampa Bay. Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) was placed on the reserve/injured list ahead of the team's Week 5 win over the Indianapolis Colts, which will keep him out through the Steelers' Week 9 bye.

Furthermore, Roman Wilson (finger) and Ben Skowronek (calf) suffered their respective injuries vs. Indianapolis and will not suit up against the Buccaneers.

Rookie Germie Bernard proved that he can take on a brunt of the workload in a starting role, recording 80 yards on six catches vs. the Colts. Still, Freiermuth has become all the more crucial to Pittsburgh's passing offense due to the slew of injuries it's dealing with at receiver.

It remains to be seen whether or not he ends up playing against Tampa Bay. If Freiermuth isn't out there, however, it would deliver yet another blow to a Steelers offense that is coming off a 34-point outing vs. Indianapolis.
