Wide receiver Zach Pascal: The Eagles' unsung hero

When you think of marquee players on the Eagles offense, big names like Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown and Dallas Goedert come to mind. A player who is often forgotten in the high-flying Eagles attack is wide receiver Zach Pascal.

Despite only being targeted 13 times for 11 receptions, 123 yards and a touchdown, Pascal has played in 31 percent of the Eagles' offensive snaps, per NBC Sports' Reuben Frank.

While Pascal might not get the same amount of targets as other pass-catchers on the team, his role is still a crucial one. The surehanded receiver is an incredible blocker. Pascal showcased his run-blocking talents as a member of the Indianapolis Colts and has carried it over into The City of Brotherly Love. 

Indianapolis was also where he met Nick Sirianni, who was the Colts offensive coordinator for Pascal's first three years in Indy. They reunited this past offseason when Pascal signed with the Eagles. 

As the weather gets cold and running the ball gets important down the stretch, the Eagles will turn to their unsung hero for his pass-catching and blocking.
