Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or Pat Freiermuth

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill saw work both on the ground and through the air with Alvin Kamara (ankle) missing Week 18's win. Hill carried the ball six times for 51 yards, ripping off a game-long 27-yarder. He also caught all four targets for 28 yards. The versatile playmaker lined up all over the field, helping the Saints pick apart the Atlanta defense for 48 points. New Orleans will now await the result of both the Green Bay and Seattle games as he Saints hold onto hopes of sneaking into the playoffs.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth said on the Around the 412 podcast on Wednesday that he wants "to be in Pittsburgh for the rest of my career" as he heads into the final year of his rookie contract in 2024. He missed five games in 2023 due to a hamstring injury, but overall his numbers declined from the previous two seasons. Subpar quarterback play didn't help, and the 25-year-old former second-round pick in 2021 out of Penn State caught a career-low 32 passes for 308 yards and only two touchdowns in 12 regular season games (nine starts). In new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith's offense, Freiermuth could have a bounce-back campaign in 2024 and will be a nice sleeper target in fantasy drafts this fall.
