Cowboys tight end Gavin Escobar was targeted once without a catch Week 1. He played nine offensive snaps. "Obviously, I want to be out on the field more," Escobar told the Dallas Morning News.
Tight end James Hanna played 15 snaps, a disheartening sign for those expecting Escobar to have a big role this season behind starter Jason Witten. Coach Jason Garrett said the team went to three-receiver sets because of the big deficit to the 49ers, and that Escobar will play more as the season progresses.
