As the Pittsburgh Steelers look to make 2025 the fifth straight year with a new starting quarterback at the helm, TE Pat Freiermuth is looking to make the most of the opportunity.
While most offensive players might be sick of having to readjust to a brand-new signal-caller every year, Freiermuth recently argued on The Christian Kuntz Podcast that it's actually been a good thing for him—as he’s been able to learn new aspects of the game from both Ben Roethlisberger and Russell Wilson.
The big Steelers tight end even elaborated on what it would be like to learn behind Mason Rudolph in 2025—or even the rumored acquisition of four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers:
"Yeah, I mean, so like whoever we get—like if it's Aaron, like whoever it is—even Mason—like Mason has his things, like Aaron has his things. It's gonna be cool to learn from all these guys, so I just take it and embrace it just to kind of, you know, understand more of the game of football, because everyone sees it a different way."
Everyone definitely does see it in a different way—as Freiermuth's optimistic outlook couldn't have come at a more perfect time. It was recently reported that the Pittsburgh Steelers locker room may be growing disheartened by the lack of clarity surrounding the quarterback position in 2025.
