Pascal is mainly a blocking receiver/special teams player. However, on Sunday, Reich got Pascal involved in the passing game masterfully. First, he used his blocking abilities as a decoy on a screen, where instead of blocking for Nyheim Hines, Pascal ran a wheel route that left him wide open in the end-zone. Literally, there were no Atlanta Falcons’ players anywhere near his vicinity. Pascal also caught another key pass later in the game, and he proved he can at least be an option in the passing game on a receiver group ravaged by injuries.
