Watch: Freiermuth has statement 2 TD game

Following every NFL game in 2025, Steel City Underground parses the best plays from the Pittsburgh Steelers to highlight for Steelers Nation fans to rewatch, complete with what led up to the big play(s).

As many AFC North rivalry games have gone, the meeting in NFL Week 7 in Cincinnati and the Pittsburgh Steelers was another nail-biter. The Steelers led 10-0 in the first half before the Bengals got hot, and in the second half pulled off of a 33-31 victory. The battle for the division has officially become tied to these two teams.

For all the rumors that tight end Pat Freiermuth is being shopped as potential trade bait for another top receiver, Aaron Rodgers made sure Steelers fans saw Freiermuth make a statement by finding him twice for key touchdowns in this game.

With 3:55 left in the 3rd quarter, Freiermuth lined up in the left slot position. Rodgers diagnosed a two-high safety look that gave the big tight end a window in the center of the end zone and threw a strike. The touchdown and converted PAT got the Steelers back into the game, down 17-20.
