The NFL's sixth-highest paid tight end ($48.4M total contract value) may see a more consistent full-time role with Jonnu and Arthur Smith out of the picture; however, Mike McCarthy has historically leaned on 11 personnel in most offenses, and extra slot snaps would come at the expense of Germie Bernard and Roman Wilson. Freiermuth finished TE14 (9.9 PPR points per game) last year, and it's tough to project significant target volume in an offense not expected to score heavily.
