was the crown jewel of the ‘ 2020 free agent cla s. A Pro Bowler in 2018, the former Colt was acquired to provide with perhaps his most gifted tight end since Heath Miller hung up his cleats five years ago. But through two games, Ebron has just four receptions for 61 yards. His seven targets is just the 25th highest total among tight ends.Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, when asked about Ebron’s Manny Ramirez Jersey slow start during his weekly pre s conference, offered a positive perspective on his new tight end.”It’s early. Keep watching,” Tomlin said of Ebron’s slow statistical start. “That’s all I can say to that. At this juncture in the season, Greg Allen Jersey you can ask a lot of those type of questions. A two-game body of work is not a big enough sample to a se s. We are pleased with the development of Ebron and his role within our system, and time will tell that story as we proceed.” PIT TE #85 TAR7REC4REC YDs61REC TD0FL0 Despite his lack of targets, Ebron was able to come up with severalbig plays during the Steelers’ first two games. Down 10-3 against the in Week 1, Ebron’s 18-yard catch (his first as a Steeler) helped set up Pittsburgh’s first touchdown Michael Brantley Jersey , a 10-yard strike from Roethlisberger to . His 15-yard catch this past Sunday set up Pittsburgh’s first touchdown, while his 21-yard grab near the end of the third quarter helped set up Roethlisberger’s 28-yard touchdown pa s to . Steelers fans should take Eddie Robinson Jersey comfort in the fact that the Steelers are 2-0 despite Ebron’s modest numbers. Through two games, Roethlisberger has thrown touchdown pa ses to Smith-Schuster, Johnson, third year wideout and rookie . He has also thrown 10 completions to his running backs and two completions to tight end .The Steelers’ depth at their skill positions has certainly paid dividends for Roethlisberger. Instead of relying too much on one or two players, Big Ben has been able to keep defenses at bay by spreading the ball around. That depth, and Roethlisberger’s ability to take advantage of it, is one of the biggest reasons for big Ben’s early succe s. Through two games, Roethlisberger has completed 68.5% of his pa ses with just five touchdowns and one interception. Pittsburgh will likely look to Ebron to make more plays this Sunday, Erik Gonzalez Jersey particularly in the red zone. While the are still in search of their first win, Houston’s defense enters Sunday’s game ranked third in fewest pa sing yards allowed in sixth in red zone efficiency.
