The Pittsburgh Steelers have added tight end Pat Freiermuth to the injury report with an illness, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. He is officially questionable for Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Steelers are already without several pas-catchers, including wide receivers Michael Pittman Jr and Roman Wilson. If Freiermuth is unable to play, that would likely mean Robert Tonyan would see an increase in snaps.
The Steelers will be playing in their second consecutive game with sole possession
of first place in the AFC North on the line. They defeated the Cleveland Browns in Week 8 27-6 to get to 6-2 ahead of their bye week. The Bengals have won four straight games, scoring 30+ points in each one.
