Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth had a big performance against the Cincinnati Bengals, leading the team with five catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns.
Freiermuth had been subject to trade rumors amid a disappointing start to the season, with just eight catches for 76 yards and zero touchdowns before the game.

Freiermuth said, but he emphasized that his focus is on the team's performance, not his own. Despite his impressive game, he wished the team had won.
