Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Could see more snaps

Eagles offensive coordinator Mike Groh said Wednesday he wants to increase Goedert's involvement, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. "We have a talented player in Dallas, and we need to find more ways to get him involved," Groh said Tuesday. "We need to get him involved more. We had some extenuating circumstances [Week 2 against the Buccaneers], for a variety of reasons."

After logging just 17 offensive snaps in both of his first two games, Goedert should see his role expand out of sheer necessity while the Eagles deal with a slew of injuries at wide receiver. The team has largely relied on three-wideout formations during Doug Pederson's tenure as head coach, but the current personnel hints at greater use of two-tight end sets, at least until Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) is ready to play. Regardless, it's hard to imagine Goedert averaging more than two or three catches per week unless Zach Ertz misses time with an injury.
