Najee Harris and Pat Freiermuth share an emotional moment reminiscent of the iconic Roethlisberger-Pouncey photo after the Wild-Card loss.

For Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris and tight end Pat Freiermuth, Saturday's wild-card loss was about more than just the playoffs—it was also about their journey as teammates. The Steelers have already signed Freiermuth to a contract extension through 2028.

Najee Harris entered the 2024 NFL season in the final year of his current contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Harris was the team's first-round pick in 2021, and in the four years since has started every single game, tallying 4,312 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns. He has been a staple for the Steelers' offense since coming into the NFL, and he now faces free agency.

Freiermuth recorded three receptions on four targets for 15 yards in Saturday's 28-14 loss to the Ravens.

It’s not hyperbole to suggest one of the biggest decisions in Pittsburgh Steelers history is being discussed this week — if not this month and offseason — at UPMC Rooney Sports Complex. Not the future of coach Mike Tomlin.

Tomlin has been under fire for his lack of postseason success, losing his last six playoff games and the most recent five have been first-round exits, including Saturday against AFC North rival Baltimore. It was just another in a string of disappointing endings.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth defended Mike Tomlin amid shouts that the franchise should replace its head coach."(I have) the utmost faith in the coaching staff," Freiermuth said Monday,

Once Wilson returned to the field, the Steelers' offense undoubtedly opened up. George Pickens finally became a factor after a slow start caused by Fields, while Pat Freiermuth and Calvin Austin III got more involved. The lone downside was the lack of Fields' rushing threat in the backfield, which negatively impacted Najee Harris and the run game.

Tomlin is well-known for never having a losing record since taking over as the Steelers HC in Jan. 2007 (owns a 183-107-2 regular season record). It's a feat that's kept Pittsburgh competitive throughout his tenure, however, the team has only one Super Bowl win to show for it and Tomlin is 8-11 in the postseason.

The Steelers aren't known for bold moves, but could they trade their best offensive player, or a Pro Bowl defender?

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven't won a playoff game in eight years, but tight end Pat Freiermuth doesn't think "The Standard" has changed.
