Running back D\u2019Andre Swift and tight end Dallas Goedert had two touches on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Not apiece, but combined.<\/p>\n

In the Philadelphia Eagles’ sluggish 25-20 win over the New England Patriots, their offense sputtered as a whole. Still, the lack of usage for Goedert and Swift in particular was eyebrow-raising.<\/p>\n

It certainly wasn’t lost on new offensive coordinator Brian Johnson, who indicated he’ll be cognizant of getting Swift and Goedert more involved going forward.<\/p>\n

“Fortunately for us we have some excellent skill position players who are all very deserving of a bunch of touches and can make game-changing plays when they get the ball in their hand,” Johnson said Tuesday, via team transcript. “It’s up to us to really, really, like you said, just be mindful of that and try to get those guys going within the flow of the game.”<\/p>\n

Though the Eagles prevailed on Sunday, a lack of chemistry on offense was apparent. So, too, was a lack of production throughout an offense sprinkled with star potential.<\/p>\n

Perhaps most glaring in their absence were Goedert and Swift.<\/p>\n
