Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz was targeted eight times Monday night and going forward it can be expected that he'll keep that workload.
Ertz sat out the majority of the preseason due to a core muscle injury, but was able to play in the season opener and said he was 'open a lot of the game.'
“The ball didn’t come my way because we had other guys making plays and I thought they did an unbelievable job,” Ertz said, via PhiladelphiaEagles.com.
“Obviously, I’m sore from not taking a hit since last season, really, because I hadn’t experienced any live action in the preseason, but I’m just really looking forward to the Cowboys coming in.
