Default throttle cable looks loose?

When I took off and cleaned my egr valve I noticed that the throttle cable isn't tight. Is it supposed to be? It had a lot of give to it.

Going to have to replace the egr valve I cleaned it then CEL came back on for insufficient egr flow 2 days later.

They stretch over time and can be adjusted
