From the article

Wide receiver Terry McLaurin did not catch a pass until less than five minutes remained in the contest. He finished with just two catches and four targets. It's not what Blough had in mind when he took over, saying he wanted to get McLaurin 10 targets per game. But the Eagles often doubled him, rolled coverage his way or simply blanketed him.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

McLaurin managed only 2 catches on 4 targets; far short of coordinator's 10-target goal.

Wide receiver Terry McLaurin finished Week 1 with only 2 catches on 4 targets, not catching a pass until less than five minutes remained in the contest. This is a significant shortfall from new offensive coordinator David Blough's stated goal of getting McLaurin 10 targets per game. The Eagles employed cloud coverage with safety help on McLaurin most of the day, forcing Jayden Daniels to distribute targets to Antonio Williams, Stefon Diggs, and Chig Okonkwo instead. The source notes the Eagles "often doubled him, rolled coverage his way or simply blanketed him."
