Up 13-8 early in the fourth, third and 5 at his own 31, he caught an 11-yarder over the middle, +1.7 EPA; that drive ended in a field goal from 38. He also fielded Philadelphia's onside kick with 1:56 left.
It was his quietest yardage game since Week 3. Through Week 7 he had 48 catches on 70 targets for 605 yards, 2 touchdowns and +16.4 EPA, +0.23 a target; here it was +0.10.
