Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth saw just one target in last week's win and will look to earn more opportunities against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. It's worth noting that this is an excellent matchup for all of Pittsburgh's tight ends, as Cincinnati surrenders the most fantasy points per game to the position. Unfortunately, Freiermuth has been playing behind both Darnell Washington and Jonnu Smith in recent contests, rendering him unreliable for fantasy purposes. The fifth-year pro can remain on waiver wires in all redraft formats heading into Week 7.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty recorded a season-high 23 rush attempts for 75 yards and a touchdown in their 20-10 win over the Titans in Week 6. Head coach Pete Carroll spoke on Wednesday regarding the workload for his star rookie running back and said that he hopes that is the norm for him moving forward. Jeanty has topped 20 carries twice this season, including a career-high performance in Week 4 against the Bears, when he rushed for 138 yards and scored three total touchdowns. He hasn't been very efficient running behind a poor run-blocking offensive line, but his touch volume ranks among the highest at the position. Jeanty will rank as a low-end RB1 in Week 7 against the Chiefs.
