Pat Freiermuth start or sit Week 12 advice. Fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 12 (2024). Should I start or sit Pat Freiermuth for fantasy football?
BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12-Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2
ANALYSIS: Since the Pittsburgh Steelers inserted Russell Wilson into the lineup, they're a perfect 4-0 and running the show in the AFC North -- but it hasn't necessarily been great for the fantasy stock of tight end Pat Freiermuth.
The tight end is averaging just 2.5 targets per game with Wilson starting, during which time the Steelers also acquired Mike Williams from the New York Jets, a clear upgrade from all the other receivers behind No. 1 option George Pickens.
Freiermuth caught a touchdown from Wilson in Week 10 against Washington but has now played fewer than 60% of the Steelers' snaps two weeks in a row and seen fewer targets than fellow tight end Darnell Washington during that span.

Pittsburgh will attempt to keep the winning streak going with a Thursday Night Football matchup against Cleveland, which ranks ninth against fantasy tight ends.
Bye weeks certainly are a factor, but managers in one-tight-end formats should evaluate their other options beyond a touchdown-dependent Freiermuth.
