Eagles tight end Trey Burton had three career catches entering Monday night before almost doubling that total in the team's 29-14 win over the Chicago Bears.

Burton, who missed the opening game with a calf injury, had five receptions for 49 yards and a touchdown. With Zach Ertz missing the game due to a rib injury, Burton appeared in 43 percent of the Eagles offensive snaps.

"I would have been used more if I hadn't cramped up at the end of the game," Burton said after Friday's practice.

Still, it was more than enough for Burton.
