was the biggest playmaker on the in his rookie season. He was relegated to an afterthought in Sunday's win.The Eagles put up 31 points on offense, one of four teams Anibal Sanchez Jersey to score 30-plus points in Week 1. The performance is even more impre sive considering Smith was held without a catch for the first time in his career.Four targets or not, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni will make sure Smith has the football in his hands going forward."We must. We have to because you never want to be one-dimensional and let them say, 'Hey, we are taking this away or taking that away,'" Sirianni Carter Kieboom Jersey said Monday. "DeVonta Smith is not a good playmaker; he's a great playmaker. I think everybody in this city saw that on hand last year. "He has to touch the ball. There's no doubt about it. He has to touch the ball, and it's just the way the game went. When we looked at it, he did have the four targets, but there was a handful of other things that were called for him, and for whatever reason there are so many different reasons of why it doesn't go to him and for whatever reason, it didn't here, and we had some other opportunities to get it Koda Glover Jersey to him."Smith caught a pa s in every game last season, the driving force of an Eagles pa sing game that didn't have many playmakers. That isn't the case this year, as Philadelphia added to be the No. 1 wide receiver and for veteran depth. Pascal had just one catch in the opener, while Smith and were held without a reception.Brown finished with 10 catches for 155 yards, the difference maker in the pa sing game the Eagles traded for. Tight end finished with three catches for 60 yards. Smith is going to get his opportunities this season as No. 1 cornerbacks try to contain Brown. Sirianni a sured the second-year standout will get his opportunity."A lot of these plays (Sunday) were still run through him. It just, for whatever reason, it seemed to time Jake Noll Jersey up perfectly: WR A.J. Brown had this huge game and DeVonta didn't touch the ball at all; oh, my goodne s, they are never going to use DeVonta Smith again," Sirianni said. "I can promise you that's not the case."Him, A.J. and Dallas Goedert are who the offense will run through, who the pa s offense will run through, and it just was the perfect storm with Adrian Sanchez Jersey where he didn't get any touches. "And hey, that's my job, though, to make sure that he gets the touches, and we'll fix that. But a lot was still planned for him."
