Dallas Goedert Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Eagles vs Cowboys game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 17, 2025
Held to 24 yards on SNF
Goedert finished with two receptions on five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was held in check in what turned out to be a defensive battle between NFC contenders on Sunday Night Football. The two receptions marked the 30-year-old's lowest total since his one-catch effort back in Week 2. The five targets were on par with the 4.3 the tight end averaged coming into the contest, hinting at Sunday's dud simply being a down game from Goedert. The Eagles will take on the Cowboys next Sunday, who Goedert recorded a 7-44-0 line against when the two teams met back in Week 1.
Nov 11, 2025
Gains 43 yards Monday
Goedert hauled in four of six targets for 43 yards in Monday's 10-7 victory over the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert finished Monday's low-scoring affair as the Eagles' second-leading receiver behind WR DeVonta Smith (4-69-1). It was also Goedert's third best receiving total in what has been a touchdown-dependent campaign. The 30-year-old is currently sitting on seven touchdowns (career high) to go along with 34 receptions and 332 yards in eight active games this season. Goedert checks in as a top-10 tight end in fantasy heading into next Sunday's tilt against Detroit.
Oct 26, 2025
Hits paydirt twice in big win
Goedert caught all three of his targets for 28 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
While he didn't see much volume, Goedert celebrated National Tight End Day in style with a six-yard TD in the second quarter and a 17-yard score in the fourth. The veteran TE will be disappointed he won't get to play the Giants again in 2025 after racking up 12 catches on 14 targets for 138 yards and three touchdowns against them in two meetings. Goedert rolls into the Eagles' Week 9 bye with an overall 30-289-7 line on 39 targets through seven contests.
Oct 23, 2025
Back to full practice
Goedert (calf) practiced fully Thursday.
ANALYSIS
One day removed from being limited due to a calf injury Wednesday, Goedert handled every practice rep, signaling that the tight end is good to go for Week 8 action. Meanwhile, WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) remained sidelined but was seen working on the side Thursday, per Bob Brookover of NJ.com. Even if Brown ends up being active Sunday versus the Giants, Goedert could be a bit more featured in the Eagles offense if the former is at less than 100 percent. Goedert has taken full advantage of his 36 targets across six appearances this season, tallying 27 catches for 261 yards and five touchdowns to date.
Oct 22, 2025
Limited by calf injury
Goedert was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a calf injury.
ANALYSIS
It's a new injury, though likely not a major one, with Goedert managing a limited practice on a day when four other starters were held out. WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) was one of those starters, which means Philadelphia's subsequent injury reports will need to be monitored. Brown didn't have much production in 2025 prior to Sunday's win over Minnesota, but he's leading the Eagles in targets again, with his 7.3 per game accounting for 27.4 percent of the team total. Goedert, meanwhile, has accounted for 21.7 percent of Philadelphia's targets in his six active games, averaging a career-high 6.0 targets per contest even after a quiet Week 7 with just 18 yards on three looks.
Oct 19, 2025
Limited to three catches Sunday
Goedert brought in all three targets for 18 yards in the Eagles' 28-22 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was a distant third in receiving yards and saw only half the targets of the runner-up in that category, A.J. Brown. The veteran tight end has taken a more prominent role in the offense on certain weeks so far this season -- none more prominently than in Week 6 against the Giants (9-110-1) -- but Goedert is still a clear third cog behind DeVonta Smith and Brown and has 37 receiving yards or fewer in four of the last five games. Goedert gets another crack at the G-Men in a Week 8 home matchup next Sunday afternoon.
Oct 10, 2025
Season-best performance in loss
Goedert brought in nine of 11 targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 34-17 loss to the Giants on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert led the Eagles across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, with those figures, and his game-high 36-yard catch, also all qualifying as season-high figures. The veteran tight end has scored all five of his touchdowns this season over the last four games, and that tally ties a career best for Goedert, who also recorded the same number of trips to the end zone in 2019. With 20 targets in his last two games alone, Goedert will remain a highly viable option in all formats during a Week 7 road matchup against the Vikings on Sunday, Oct. 19.
Oct 5, 2025
Gets into end zone again Sunday
Goedert brought in three of nine targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 21-17 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was surprisingly second on the Eagles in targets, but he had the third-fewest receiving yards during an inefficient afternoon against a tough Denver defense. Nevertheless, Goedert got into the end zone for the third time in the last two games on a two-yard catch just past the halfway point of the second quarter. Goedert has all four of his touchdowns this season in the last three games, and although he's only averaging 8.9 yards per reception, he remains an intriguing option at his position for a favorable road Week 6 matchup against the Giants on Thursday night.
Oct 3, 2025
Clear for Week 5
Goedert (knee) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Goedert sat out Week 2 at Kansas City due to a knee sprain and then wasn't able to practice Wednesday due to a knee injury. However, he progressed from that DNP to a limited showing Thursday and then handled every rep to end Week 5 prep, thereby clearing him for Sunday's contest. Over the last two games, Goedert has put together a 5-70-3 line on six targets.
Oct 2, 2025
Limited in return to practice
Goedert (knee) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
ANALYSIS
One day removed from not practicing due to a knee injury Wednesday, Goedert got back on the practice field, albeit with a cap on his reps. He thus has one more chance to get back to all activity Friday, at which point the Eagles could tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos. In three appearances this season, Goedert has compiled a 12-114-3 line on 13 targets, with all three scores coming over the last two contests.
Oct 1, 2025
Doesn't practice due to knee issue
Goedert was held out of practice Wednesday due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Goedert sat out Week 2 due to a sprained knee but otherwise has played in the Eagles' three other games this season, combining for a 12-114-3 line on 13 targets. He's also earned at least a 75 percent snap share on all three occasions. It's unclear if the current injury is related to the previous one, but after a DNP to begin Week 5 prep, he'll have opportunities Thursday and Friday to prove his health ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Sep 28, 2025
Two short TDs in win
Goedert brought in all four targets for 37 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 31-25 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert tied for the team lead in receptions with Saquon Barkley while setting the pace in receiving yards, and he was also on the receiving end of both of Jalen Hurts' scoring tosses. Each of the touchdown grabs was unconventional, with Goedert first crossing the goal line on a nifty two-yard underhand pass from Hurts in the first quarter and then finding the paint again on a second-quarter shovel pass from five yards out. Goedert is on a bit of a scoring surge with three total touchdown grabs in the last two games, and he could be busy again in Week 5 at home against a Broncos team that could force Hurts to get the ball out quickly.
Sep 22, 2025
Makes most of one catch
Goedert recorded one reception on two targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Goedert returned from a one-game absence and was the odd-man out in a strong offensive day for the Eagles. He did manage to make his lone reception of the day count by hauling in a 33-yard touchdown early in the third quarter as he split the Rams' defense down the middle of the field. Though it's come in very different ways, Goedert has had a productive start to the season after tallying seven catches in Week 1.
Sep 19, 2025
Cleared for Week 3 return
Goedert (knee) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
He should be back in his usual, near-every-down role after missing Week 2 due to a knee sprain. Before that, Goedert got a team-high seven targets in a Week 1 win over Dallas, handling 82 percent snap share and 92 percent route share along the way.
Sep 18, 2025
Stays limited at practice
Goedert (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has strung together back-to-back capped sessions since sitting out this past Sunday's win at Kansas City due to a knee sprain. He thus will have one more opportunity to practice in full Friday before the Eagles potentially give him a designation for Sunday's game against the Rams. With Goedert absent Week 2, fellow TE Grant Calcaterra earned an 88 percent snap share but was targeted just twice, while Kylen Granson played 57 percent of the snaps and saw one target.
Sep 17, 2025
Officially limited Wednesday
Goedert (knee) was limited at Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Goedert got back on the practice field for the first time since spraining his knee during a Week 1 win against the Cowboys. Speaking about the injury, Goedert told Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com on Wednesday that he sustained it on a third-down catch early in the second half when he took a hit to the outside of his knee. Goedert will have two more chances this week to increase his activity level before the Eagles potentially make a ruling on his status for Sunday's game versus the Rams.
Sep 17, 2025
Returning to practice
Goedert (knee) returned to practice Wednesday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert missed Sunday's win over the Chiefs, 10 days after suffering a knee sprain in the Eagles' regular-season opener. Now nearly two weeks removed from the injury, Goedert apparently is making a bid to play this Sunday against the Rams
Sep 12, 2025
Ruled out for Week 2
Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Kansas City, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert handled 92 percent route share and a team-high seven targets in last Thursday's 24-20 win over Dallas, but a knee sprain has kept him out of practice ever since, leaving the Eagles with Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson as their top tight ends. Goedert is a reasonable lineup option for fantasy whenever healthy, but we're already seeing why he wasn't necessarily drafted as a starter this summer. If he doesn't return for Week 3, this will be Goedert's sixth consecutive season with multiple missed games.
Sep 12, 2025
Not looking good for Sunday
Goedert (knee) isn't practicing Friday, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert handled 92 percent route share and a team-high seven targets in last Thursday's win over Dallas, but a knee sprain has kept him out of practice ever since, making the tight end unlikely to play this Sunday at Kansas City. With Goedert trending in the wrong direction, Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson figure to get most of the snaps at tight end. No. 3 WR Jahan Dotson could also add more playing time relative to Week 1, after the Eagles used multi-TE formations on around half of their snaps in the opener.
Sep 11, 2025
Remains sidelined at practice
Goedert (knee) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert received the most attention from QB Jalen Hurts last Thursday against the Cowboys, turning his seven targets into seven catches for 44 yards on an 82 percent snap share. That's more or less what he handles on a weekly basis, at least in terms of playing time, but he suffered a knee sprain along the way, according to Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia. With no practice to speak so far during Week 2 prep, Goedert has just one more chance for on-field work Friday before the Eagles potentially make a call on his status for Sunday's visit to the Chiefs. Philadelphia currently has TEs Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson on the active roster, while E.J. Jenkins and Cameron Latu are on the practice squad.
Sep 10, 2025
Doesn't practice Wednesday
Goedert (knee) didn't practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia, Goedert is dealing with a knee sprain in the wake of the Eagles' season-opening win against the Cowboys, leaving his status uncertain for Sunday's showdown on the road with the Chiefs. The injury isn't believed to be a long-term concern, but the Eagles clearly are exercising caution with their No. 1 TE. Goedert will have two more chances to mix into drills this week before Philadelphia potentially makes a ruling on his status for Week 2. Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson are the current healthy options at the position on the active roster.
Sep 10, 2025
Dealing with knee sprain
Goedert is not participating in the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media due to a knee sprain, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's official practice status will be revealed alongside Wednesday's injury report, but it appears to starting tight end will be listed as either limited or a non-participant. Grant Calcaterra will be the Eagles' next man up at tight end in the event that Goedert is unable to gain clearance in time for Sunday's road matchup against the Chiefs.
Sep 5, 2025
Busy night in Week 1 win
Goedert brought in all seven targets for 44 yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert recorded a co-game-high reception total and was second on the Eagles in receiving yards on a night when Jalen Hurts threw for a modest 152 yards. The veteran tight end was peppered with a team-high target tally by Hurts as the Cowboys focused plenty of attention on A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, leading to a productive start to the campaign for Goedert. He should be involved in a complementary capacity at minimum during a Week 2 road Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 14.
Sep 1, 2025
Set to face Dallas
Goedert (groin) doesn't appear on the Eagles' injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Goedert had been managing a groin issue, but the Eagles' top tight end is ready for Week 1 action along with starting wideouts DeVonta Smith (groin) and A.J. Brown (hamstring). The three combine to form the nucleus of Philadelphia's passing attack, while Saquon Barkley is set to reprise his role as the team's featured back. Goedert logged a 42/496/2 receiving line (on 52 targets) in 10 regular-season contests last season and maintains his standing as the top option in a TE corps that also includes Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson.
Aug 19, 2025
Limited with injury Tuesday
Goedert (groin) was a limited participant at Tuesday's practice, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert and DeVonta Smith (groin), who did not practice, are new additions to Tuesday's injury report, while A.J. Brown (hamstring) also remained sidelined due to an injury he's dealt with for the majority of training camp. While Goedert practicing in a limited fashion suggests he's only dealing with a minor injury, that could be enough for him to be held out of Friday's preseason finale against the Jets, in the event that the rest of Philadelphia's starters do suit up for exhibition action.
May 7, 2025
Agrees to reworked contract
Goedert and the Eagles are in agreement on a reworked contract that will keep him with the team for 2025, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Offseason traded rumors never materialized, keeping the 30-year-old with the only NFL team he's known. Goedert averaged between 3.7 and 4.6 catches per game each of the past six seasons, reliably putting up solid efficiency stats on 5-6 targets per game, with the biggest difference from year to year being his number of absences. He's missed multiple games in five straight seasons, including a career-high seven last year before bouncing back in the playoffs with a 17-215-1 receiving line in four games. Goedert should continue to provide low-end TE1 fantasy production when healthy, serving as Philadelphia's No. 3 receiving option behind WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
Feb 9, 2025
Two grabs in SB LIX victory
Goedert secured both targets for 27 yards in the Eagles' 40-22 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The talented tight end helped ignite the Eagles' first touchdown drive with a 20-yard reception on the second play of the possession, and he subsequently drew an unnecessary roughness penalty on the same drive when he took a hit to the head from the Chiefs' Trent McDuffie on a third-down incompletion. Goedert would go on to play a minor role the rest of the way, but by recording a second catch, he finished with multiple receptions in each of Philadelphia's four postseason victories. When healthy, Goedert was a key complementary target for Jalen Hurts once again during the regular season and postseason, but he's slated to head into the final year of his contract in 2025 unless an extension is reached or Philadelphia opts to exercise a potential out that would result in a dead cap hit of just over $11 million.
Feb 5, 2025
Full practice Wednesday
Goedert (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert didn't take part in drills during the first week of Super Bowl prep due to an ankle injury, but the Eagles didn't hand him a designation on last Friday's practice report, indicating that there was little worry about his availability for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs. Indeed, with an uncapped session under his belt to begin this week, he's set to serve as Philadelphia's top tight end this weekend.
Jan 31, 2025
Sidesteps injury designation
Goedert (rest/ankle) doesn't have a designation for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9 versus the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Goedert is dealing with an ankle injury for a second straight week, as he was held out of all drills during the first week of Super Bowl prep. As the situation currently stands, he doesn't appear to be in danger of missing the final game of the campaign. Considering his recent practice regimens, though, Goedert may have some limitations once the Eagles arrive in New Orleans next week, meaning his status will continue to be monitored to get a sense of his level of health.
Jan 30, 2025
DNP on Thursday
Goedert (rest/ankle) didn't practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
For a second week in a row, Goedert has been listed as a non-participant on the first two Eagles injury reports due to an ankle issue. Last week, he was able to cap it with a full session and enter the weekend without a designation for the NFC Championship Game, when he handled an 82 percent snap share en route to seven catches (on eight targets) for 85 yards in a 55-23 win against the Commanders. With more than a week to prepare for a Super Bowl matchup with the Chiefs on Sunday, Feb. 9, Goedert has plenty of time to prove the health of his ankle in advance of that contest.
Jan 29, 2025
Estimated as 'DNP' on Wednesday
Goedert (rest/ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.
ANALYSIS
An ankle issue impacted Goedert's practice participation ahead of this past Sunday's 55-23 win over the Commanders in the NFC Championship Game, but he approached that contest without an injury designation and ending up logging 58 of a possible 71 snaps on offense, while catching seven of his eight targets for 85 yards while rushing twice for 13 yards. With no reported setbacks, chances are Goedert's listed 'DNP' on Wednesday's practice estimate is indicative of rep management ahead of the Super Bowl, which takes place Feb. 9.
Jan 26, 2025
Quietly strong year continues
Goedert caught seven of eight targets for 85 yards while rushing twice for 13 yards in Sunday's 55-23 win over the Commanders in the NFC Championship Game.
ANALYSIS
Goedert led the Eagles in receptions, tied A.J. Brown for the team lead in targets and finished just 11 receiving yards short of Brown's team-leading total. If you take away Week 6, when Goedert got hurt after playing three snaps against the Browns, he's averaging 52.6 receiving yards in 13 other combined regular season and postseason games. That average was topped by only George Kittle, Trey McBride and Brock Bowers in the regular season among all NFL tight ends. Goedert will play in his second Super Bowl on Feb. 9 in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, having lost Super Bowl LVII to the Chiefs two years ago.
Jan 24, 2025
Clear for NFC Championship Game
Goedert (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles held Goedert out of drills both Wednesday and Thursday due to an ankle injury, but he got back on the field Friday as a full participant and thus will be available this weekend. He even relayed to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia that the plan all along was for Philadelphia to manage the tight end to ensure he was good to go with the team just one win away from a Super Bowl berth. In his sole appearance against Washington this season back in Week 11, Goedert hauled in all five of his targets for 61 yards, which marked his third-highest yardage total of the campaign (including playoffs).
Jan 24, 2025
Aiming to play Sunday
Goedert (ankle) said Friday that he intends to play in Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Commanders, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports. "I feel great," Goedert added.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was held out of drills Wednesday and Thursday due to an ankle issue, but he was spotted on the side in the latter session and then was present during the media-access portion of Friday's practice, per Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. The tight end's optimism aside, the Eagles still may tag Goedert with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest, something that'll be clarified on Friday's injury report.
Jan 24, 2025
Returns to practice Friday
Goedert (ankle) is participating in the early portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert missed practice Wednesday and Thursday due to an ankle issue, so his participation in even a limited capacity Friday would represent a notable step in the right direction. Friday's official injury report will reveal whether Goedert officially carries an injury designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Commanders.
Jan 23, 2025
Officially DNP on Thursday
Goedert (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Coach Nick Sirianni told Tim McManus of ESPN.com earlier Thursday that Goedert would be on the practice field. Per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the preceding came to pass, but Goedert also didn't take part in warmups and remained on the sideline, ultimately going down as a DNP for a second straight day. Goedert thus will have one more chance to mix into drills this week Friday, at which point the Eagles could make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Commanders.
Jan 23, 2025
Set to practice Thursday
Head coach Nick Sirianni noted that Goedert (ankle) will practice Thursday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through session, but the tight end's looming return Thursday has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship game against the Commanders. The Eagles' upcoming injury report will reveal Goedert's participation level in his return to practice.
Jan 22, 2025
Listed as non-participant
Goedert (ankle) did not participate during Wednesday's estimated practice.
ANALYSIS
Goedert, who led the Eagles with four catches for 56 yards (four targets) during the team's divisional-round win over the Rams, appears to have picked up an ankle issue during last Sunday's' contest. The starting tight end will have two more chances to upgrade his practice level ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Washington. Through two playoff games thus far Goedert has posted an 8-103-1 receiving line on 10 targets, so it would be a notable blow for Philadelphia's game if he's less than 100 percent to face the Commanders.
Jan 19, 2025
Leading receiver as Philly advances
Goedert caught all four of his targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 28-22 divisional-round win over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
The tight end led all Eagles pass catchers in yardage, as Jalen Hurts threw for only 128 yards on the day. Goedert is having a solid playoff so far, posting an 8-103-1 line on 10 targets through two games, and with the team's passing game being subordinate to its run game, he might be the most reliable downfield option Philly has heading into an NFC Championship Game clash against the Commanders.
Jan 17, 2025
Set for divisional round
Goedert (illness) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Rams.
ANALYSIS
After missing Thursday's practice due to an illness, Goedert was back on the field Friday, when he went down as a limited participant. No matter, the ailment won't stop him from being available to the Eagles offense Sunday against a Los Angeles defense that has given up the most catches (114) and fifth-most TD receptions (eight) to opposing tight ends in 18 outings between the regular season and playoffs.
Jan 17, 2025
Back at practice Friday
Goedert (illness) returned to practice Friday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert made a midweek appearance on the Eagles' injury report Thursday as a non-participant due to an illness. Because the bug seemingly was a temporary concern, he may not be in danger of missing Sunday's divisional-round game against the Rams. Ultimately, Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not Goedert heads into the weekend with a designation.
Jan 16, 2025
Comes down with illness
Goedert didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
After sitting out Weeks 14-17 due to a knee injury and making a cameo Week 18 against the Giants, Goedert returned to a normal workload this past Sunday versus the Packers, handling a 92 percent snap share en route to four catches (on six targets) for 47 yards and one touchdown. With an illness now afflicting him, his status will be one to monitor ahead of Sunday's divisional-round game against the Rams.
Jan 12, 2025
Hauls in TD against Green Bay
Goedert caught four of six targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-10 wild-card round win over the Packers.
ANALYSIS
The tight end connected with Jalen Hurts on a 24-yard score late in the third quarter to help put the game out of reach. Goedert has gotten into the end zone in three of his last six games dating back to Week 10, but that stretch was interrupted by an IR stint late in the regular season due to a knee injury. A healthy Goedert should remain one of Hurts' top options in the divisional round.
Jan 5, 2025
Four grabs in return from IR
Goedert caught four of six targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Making his return from a four-game absence due to a knee injury, Goedert shook off any rust fairly quickly despite the fact that he was catching passes from Tanner McKee rather than Jalen Hurts (concussion). The Eagles are optimistic about Hurts' chances of suiting up next weekend in a wild-card clash against the Packers, but Goedert should have a significant role in the offense regardless of who is under center. Through 10 regular-season appearances in 2024, Goedert caught 42 of 52 targets for 496 yards and two TDs.
Jan 4, 2025
Activated from IR
The Eagles activated Goedert (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, and the tight end doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
After practicing fully all week, Goedert will be available for his first game action since he suffered a knee injury Week 13 at Baltimore. While many of the Eagles starters won't suit up in the season finale. the team seemingly wants Goedert to get his legs under him in a game scenario in advance of the playoffs. It's unclear how much run he may get Sunday, but Grant Calcaterra and E.J. Jenkins will be Philadelphia's other options at tight end this weekend.
Jan 3, 2025
No injury designation
Goedert (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles are resting most of their starters but seemingly want to give Goedert a tune up before the wild-card round of the playoffs. He last played Week 13 and now is on track to be activated from injured reserve Saturday. It'll be a major surprise if Goedert handles his normal workload Sunday.
Jan 2, 2025
Status for Week 18 undecided
Goedert (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Since being designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Goedert hasn't had any restrictions in the Eagles' first two Week 18 practices. Though head coach Nick Sirianni has already said that quarterback Jalen Hurts (concussion/finger), running back Saquon Barkley and other key starters will be held out of Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Giants, Goedert said that he hasn't yet been told whether or not he'll play in Week 18, per Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Goedert added that he's fully confident that he'll be ready to go for the start of the Eagles' postseason run, but it could be beneficial for the team to activate him this week and have him see some game action against the Giants, given that he hasn't played since Week 13.
Jan 1, 2025
Full listing Wednesday
Goedert (knee) was a full participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles designated Goedert for return from injured reserve Wednesday, but despite being unhindered in his first on-field work since landing on IR on Dec. 7, he doesn't seem likely to be available Sunday against the Giants considering coach Nick Sirianni said many starters, including QB Jalen Hurts (concussion) and RB Saquon Barkley, won't be available for that contest. Still, Goedert's ability to practice after missing the minimum four games is a good sign that his return to action is imminent, even if it doesn't happen until the wild-card round.
Jan 1, 2025
Practice window opened
The Eagles have opened the 21-day practice window for Goedert (knee), who has been on IR since Dec. 7.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles have clinched the No. 2 seed in the NFC ahead of the upcoming playoffs, so it doesn't seem likely that Goedert will see much - if any - action in the team's regular-season finale against the Giants on Sunday. The tight end will, however, be able to get some valuable practice reps in this week, presumably with an eye toward being ready to handle a full workload in the postseason.
Dec 7, 2024
Officially placed on IR
Goedert (knee) was officially placed on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
This was reported earlier by various sources, but it was officially confirmed by the team later in the day. Grant Calcaterra and C.J. Uzomah will be tasked with taking on the work vacated by Goedert, who will be eligible to return during the team's final week of the regular season.
Dec 7, 2024
Goes to IR
Goedert (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert is eligible to return Week 18, but based on Rapoport's report, it's entirely possible the 29-year-old will not return until the team's first playoff game. Grant Calcaterra filled in admirably for Goedert during the veteran's Week 7-9 absence tallying nine receptions on nine targets for 93 yards. Calcaterra is expected to get the first crack at filling the void this go around, but the Eagles did sign another veteran, C.J. Uzomah, to the active roster earlier this week, and the latter could be another body that will factor in as a situational pass catcher.
Dec 6, 2024
Ruled out
Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Eagles coach Nick Sirianni used the term "week to week" after Goedert was forced out of last Sunday's win over the Ravens. The tight end didn't practice at all this week, which suggests he's in danger of missing time beyond Sunday. Grant Calcaterra figures to fill in as the starting tight end -- a role he handled for nearly a month earlier this season when Goedert was out with a hamstring injury.
Dec 6, 2024
Not practicing
Goedert (knee) isn't practicing Friday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Eagles coach Nick Sirianni used the term "week to week" after Goedert was forced out of last Sunday's win over the Ravens. The tight end's continued absence from practice is another hint Grant Calcaterra will fill in as the starter this Sunday agains Carolina.
Dec 5, 2024
Sits out another practice
Goedert (knee) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't been on the field for either of the Eagles' first two practices of Week 14 prep, with his absences having been fully expected after Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Monday that the tight end was considered week-to-week due to the knee injury he sustained in this past Sunday's win over the Ravens. With Goedert on track to miss this weekend's game against the Panthers and potentially additional time beyond that, Grant Calcaterra is expected to step in as the Eagles' top tight end.
Dec 4, 2024
Absent from practice Wednesday
Goedert (knee) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's absence from practice Wednesday comes as little surprise, given that he was labeled week-to-week after suffering a knee injury during Philadelphia's 24-19 win over the Ravens this past Sunday. The tight end could be a candidate for injured reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. While the Eagles haven't officially ruled Goedert out for Sunday's game against the Panthers yet, the expectation is that Grant Calcaterra will step in as the Eagles' starting tight end this weekend.
Dec 2, 2024
Considered week-to-week
Goedert (knee) is considered week-to-week and could be a candidate for injured reserve, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
The injury isn't believed to be season-ending for Goedert, but a four-week stint on injured reserve appears to be an option. In doing so, the Eagles would not have Goedert back until Week 18. For now, Goedert should be considered doubtful, at best, for next Sunday's game against the Panthers. Goedert previously missed three games earlier this season with a hamstring injury. In his absence, Grant Calcaterra played 90-plus percent of the snaps twice in those three contests. Calcaterra will likely slide back into that role for however long Goedert is sidelined.
Dec 2, 2024
Looks to have avoided major injury
The Eagles are optimistic that Goedert avoided a significant knee injury in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens based on his initial evaluation, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert played 40 of the Eagles' 56 snaps in the win and recorded three receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown on four targets before exiting the contest in the fourth quarter. Though he appears to have avoided any structural damage to his knee, Goedert will presumably head in for an MRI on Monday as the Eagles look to determine the extent of the injury. Even if Goedert is diagnosed with a minor knee sprain, his availability for next Sunday's game against the Panthers could be in jeopardy.
Dec 1, 2024
Hurts knee against Ravens
Goedert is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens due to a knee injury, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert caught three of four targets for 35 yards and a touchdown before getting hurt in the second half. His 17-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter accounted for Philadelphia's first points. Grant Calcaterra operated as Philadelphia's top tight end when Goedert missed four games due to a hamstring injury earlier this season.
Nov 25, 2024
Mild production off four receptions
Goedert caught four of five targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 37-20 victory over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Goedert finished second in targets and receptions in a run-heavy gameplan as the Eagles handled the Rams with ease. The 29-year-old didn't do much with his opportunities, resulting in his lowest yardage total in a game with a reception this season. Sunday's dud comes on the heels of a pair of solid fantasy outings, so managers rostering Goedert should stick with him ahead of next Sunday's tilt at Baltimore.
Nov 15, 2024
Productive outing in win
Goedert secured all five targets for 61 yards in the Eagles' 26-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Goedert tied A.J. Brown for the team lead in receptions and checked in second to his teammate in receiving yards. The veteran tight end also was able to recover the Commanders' last-gasp onside kick, sealing the victory for Philadelphia. Goedert had battled an ankle injury during the week, but by posting his third-highest reception and receiving yardage totals of the season, it's evident he's past the issue. Goedert will now have some extra recovery time ahead of a Week 12 road matchup against the Rams on Sunday night, Nov. 24.
Nov 13, 2024
Set to play Thursday
Goedert (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday and doesn't have a designation for Thursday's game versus the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Goedert opened Week 11 prep listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report due to an ankle issue before being limited at Tuesday's walkthrough. With an uncapped session under his belt Wednesday, he'll be out there Thursday against a Washington defense that has conceded the third-most receiving touchdowns (five) to opposing tight ends in 10 contests this season.
Nov 12, 2024
Gauged as limited practice participant
The Eagles listed Goedert as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
ANALYSIS
Though the Eagles merely held a walkthrough Tuesday, Goedert's limited listing represents a step forward from Monday, when he appeared on the team's initial Week 11 injury report as a non-participant. Goedert made his return from a three-game absence in this past Sunday's win over the Cowboys and showed no apparent signs of being inhibited by the hamstring injury, as he played 63 percent of the offensive snaps while finishing with two catches for 25 yards and a touchdown on three targets. The expectation is that Goedert will play Thursday against the Commanders, but it won't be known until after Wednesday's practice whether he carries a designation into game day.
Nov 11, 2024
Estimated as non-practice participant
Goedert was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.
ANALYSIS
In his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Goedert logged a 63 percent snap share while catching two of his three targets for 25 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-6 win over Dallas. The fact that the tight end is listed with an ankle issue on Monday's report is worth noting, with added context on his status for Thursday night's game against the Commanders slated to arrive no later than Tuesday's practice.
Nov 10, 2024
Nabs touchdown Sunday
Goedert (hamstring) had two receptions on three targets for 25 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-6 win over Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Goedert returned from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury to reclaim his role as the Eagles' starting tight end. The 29-year-old didn't post big receiving numbers, but he still helped fantasy managers by cashing in Philadelphia's lone passing touchdown on the day. Now healthy, Goedert should resume being a standard league starting option after racking up 17 receptions for 232 yards in his two full games prior to injuring his hamstring in Week 6.
Nov 7, 2024
Logs full practice Thursday
Goedert (hamstring) practiced fully Thursday, Dave Spadaro of the Eagles' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert got back on the field for the first time since he injured his hamstring in a Week 6 matchup with the Browns at Wednesday's walkthrough. His ensuing listing of full participant was encouraging, but his ability to handle every rep in an actual practice one day later is the key sign that he'll be available Sunday at Dallas. Goedert thus is poised to take over his spot as the Eagles' No. 1 tight end from Grant Calcaterra.
Nov 6, 2024
Listed as full participant
Goedert (hamstring) was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday and suggested afterward that he plans to play Sunday at Dallas, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
It was Goedert's first practice participation since injuring his hamstring Week 6 -- an injury that opened the door for fellow Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra to top 90 percent snap share in three of the past four games. The team's decision to list Goedert as a full participant is a strong hint he'll play Sunday, although Wednesday's session was only a walk-through and not a higher-intensity practice.
Nov 6, 2024
Returns to practice
Goedert (hamstring) is practicing Wednesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
He'll likely be a limited participant in his first practice since Week 6, with a chance to progress in the coming days. Goedert has a shot to return from a three-game absence and face the Cowboys this Sunday.
Nov 1, 2024
Out another week
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't practiced since suffering the hamstring injury Week 6 and now will miss a third straight game. Grant Calcaterra has been filling in with a near-every-down role at tight end, replacing all of Goedert's usual snaps but seeing fewer targets.
Oct 31, 2024
Still not practicing
Goedert (hamstring) isn't taking part in Thursday's practice, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't practiced since making an early departure from a Week 6 matchup with the Browns due to a hamstring issue, and with just one more chance to get back on the field during Week 9 prep, he's in danger of missing a third game in a row. Friday's injury report may provide some clarity regarding Goedert's status entering the weekend.
Oct 30, 2024
No return to practice
Goedert (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert missed the past two games and is in danger of missing a third when the Eagles host the Jaguars this Sunday. Grant Calcaterra has filled in with a near-every-down role at tight end the past few weeks.
Oct 25, 2024
Ruled out for Week 8
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest at Cincinnati.
ANALYSIS
Goedert thus will miss a second game in a row due to the strained hamstring that he suffered back in Week 6 against the Browns. Considering he hasn't practiced in the meantime, he likely will need to do so in some capacity in order to have a chance to return to action Week 9 versus the Jaguars. Grant Calcaterra will assume most of the TE reps in Goedert's stead this weekend.
Oct 24, 2024
Misses another practice
Goedert (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't been able to practice in any fashion since straining his hamstring early in the Eagles' Week 6 win over the Browns. He'll almost certainly need to get back on the field in some capacity Friday to have a chance at avoiding a second consecutive missed game this Sunday against the Bengals. In Goedert's absence during this past Sunday's win over the Giants, Grant Calcaterra served as the Eagles' top tight end and played 71 percent of the snaps, but he finished with just one catch for five yards on one target.
Oct 23, 2024
Unable to practice Wednesday
Goedert (hamstring) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert sat out Philadelphia's win over the Giants in Week 7, and he hasn't yet resumed practicing in any capacity since being forced out of the team's Week 6 contest against Cleveland due to a hamstring issue. The standout tight end is trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's road game against the Bengals, and he'll only have two more chances to retake the practice field heading into Week 8 action. Grant Calcaterra, who secured his only catch for five yards versus New York, will be in line to draw another start if Goedert can't ultimately suit up versus Cincinnati.
Oct 18, 2024
Out this week
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't practiced since making an early exit from Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns. He left after just three snaps, with fellow tight end Grant Calcaterra then handling a 92 percent snap share and 88 percent route share while catching each of his four targets for 67 yards. The potential to repeat that workload makes Calcaterra a reasonable lineup option for deep leagues and DFS.
Oct 17, 2024
Not practicing
Goedert (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert left Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns after playing just three snaps and has now missed back-to-back practices at the start of Week 7 prep. Grant Calcaterra will fill in as Philadelphia's top tight end in the likely event of Goedert missing Sunday's matchup with the Giants.
Oct 16, 2024
Won't practice Wednesday
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said Wednesday that Goedert (hamstring) will not participate in practice, but that he hasn't been ruled out for Sunday's road matchup against the Giants, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was forced out of Philadelphia's 20-16 win over the Browns in Week 6 due to a hamstring after playing just three offensive snaps. While the standout tight end hasn't yet been ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup in New York, he'll almost certainly need to participate in practice in at least a limited capacity Thursday and/or Friday for any chance of taking the field Week 7. Grant Calcaterra, who caught all four of his targets for 67 yards versus Cleveland, will stand to start if Goedert is unable to play.
Oct 13, 2024
Ruled out for remainder of Week 6
Goedert (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's matchup against Cleveland, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was injured on the third play of the game on a pass thrown his way that fell incomplete. He was initially deemed questionable to return before being ruled out shortly after halftime. With Goedert unable to return Sunday, Grant Calcaterra has taken over most of the work at tight end for Philadelphia. It's unclear at this time whether Goedert is at risk of missing next Sunday's clash with the Giants, and his participation during Week 7 prep should shed light on that matter.
Oct 13, 2024
Suffers hamstring injury
Goedert exited Sunday's game against the Browns due to a hamstring injury.
ANALYSIS
Goedert departed after a failed hookup with QB Jalen Hurts on the first possession of the contest, visiting the sideline tent before going to the locker room without a helmet. If he's unable to return, Goedert will finish Week 6 with no catches on just one target.
Sep 29, 2024
Leads pass catchers in loss
Goedert brought in seven of eight targets for 62 yards in the Eagles' 33-16 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
With A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) both sidelined, Goedert unsurprisingly led the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon. The talented tight end was coming off a stellar 10-catch, 170-yard performance against the Saints in Week 3, and although his numbers were markedly less spectacular Sunday, he still provided fantasy managers with a useful tally. As successful as Goedert has been the last two games, his target share is almost certain to take a hit in a Week 6 home matchup against the Browns on Oct. 13 following a Week 5 bye, considering there's a good chance both of the aforementioned wideouts will be able to suit up for that contest.
Sep 25, 2024
Not on injury report
Goedert isn't listed on the Wednesday injury report for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Reports earlier Wednesday suggested Goedert wasn't practicing, but it turns out he was off to the side and eventually joined his teammates for a walkthrough. The Eagles may have just been lightening his workload after a 170-yard explosion the Week 3 win at New Orleans. WR DeVonta Smith suffered a concussion during the game and missed practice Wednesday, potentially leaving the Eagles without their top two pass catchers for Week 4 (WR A.J. Brown is still recovering from a hamstring injury and also missed practice).
Sep 25, 2024
Not spotted at practice
Goedert (undisclosed) is not participating in the early portion of Wednesday's walkthrough practice open to the media, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert is catching passes off to the side Wednesday, while A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) both also remain sidelined. The starting tight end is coming off a career-best Week 3 performance against the Saints in which he secured 10 of 11 targets for 170 yards, and his availability will again be paramount Sunday versus Tampa Bay if either or both of Brown and Smith can't go. Wednesday's official practice report, to be released this afternoon, will provide clarity on Goedert's health and reveal any injuries he's dealing with.
Sep 22, 2024
Career-best day in win
Goedert brought in 10 of 11 targets for 170 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 15-12 win over the Saints on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was already expected to see an uptick in targets with A.J. Brown (hamstring) inactive, but he garnered an even bigger role in the air attack once DeVonta Smith exited the game in the second half with a concussion. Goedert recorded two receptions totaling 91 yards after Smith exited the contest, the second a critical 61-yard grab on third down that brought the ball down to the Saints' four yard- line with 1:16 remaining. Both Goedert's reception and receiving yardage totals were career highs, and he could be due for another busy afternoon if at least one of Brown or Smith is unable to suit up for a Week 4 road matchup against the Buccaneers.
Sep 17, 2024
Gains 38 yards on three catches
Goedert caught three of four targets for 38 yards in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Goedert finished as the Eagles' second-leading receiver now that the team will be without the services of star wideout A.J. Brown (hamstring) for multiple weeks. The starting tight end has turned in two pedestrian fantasy scores through two games this season, but fantasy managers shouldn't give up on the 2018 second-round pick so quickly, as the team has a need for auxiliary targets behind DeVonta Smith for Sunday's tilt against the Saints.
Sep 7, 2024
Grabs four balls in win
Goedert had four receptions (five targets) for 31 yards in Friday's 34-29 win over the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was dealing with an oblique injury late in the preseason schedule, but he did not appear on the Eagles' injury report leading up to Friday's tilt in Brazil. The athletic tight end did not appear limited on the field, catching 80 percent of his opportunities. Fantasy managers will be hoping for more production from Goedert in Philadelphia's next matchup against Atlanta on Sep. 16.
Sep 4, 2024
Sidesteps injury report
Goedert (oblique) doesn't appear on the Eagles' Week 1 injury report.
ANALYSIS
Goedert missed some practice time over the final two weeks of August, but he returned to the field Sunday. The Eagles didn't include him on their initial Week 1 injury report Tuesday, so Goedert is presumably practicing without restriction in advance of Friday's season opener versus the Packers in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Goedert should dominate the snaps at tight end Friday and should see a healthy amount of involvement in the passing game as a secondary target for quarterback Jalen Hurts behind wideouts A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith.
Sep 1, 2024
Returns to practice Sunday
Goedert (oblique) is suited up for practice Sunday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert missed most of the past two weeks of practice due to an oblique injury, which cast some doubt about his readiness to suit up for Philadelphia's regular-season opener in Brazil against the Packers on Friday. However, his return to the field Sunday provides optimism that he'll be able to suit up in Week 1. It remains to be seen if Goedert will have a designation on the Eagles' first injury report, which will come out Monday.
Aug 29, 2024
Still not practicing
Goedert (oblique) is not practicing Thursday, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has missed just over a week of practices with an oblique injury, leaving him just eight days to get healthy ahead of Philadelphia's regular-season opener against the Packers in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Sept. 6. The Eagles are likely taking a cautious approach to the starting tight end's health, given his integral role on offense, but his status will be worth closely monitoring when the team's first official practice reports of the regular season are released next week. Grant Calcaterra is the only other health tight end on the team's 53-man roster Thursday, but more additions are likely on the way.
Aug 21, 2024
Bothered by oblique
Goedert missed Wednesday's practice with an oblique injury, Bob Brookover of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
ANALYSIS
This is the first report of any injury for Goedert since he was out for three games with a forearm fracture in November/December. He's missed multiple games four years in a row, but never more than five in any one season, and he'll have 16 days to recover from the oblique injury before the Eagles play the Packers in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Sept. 6.
Aug 16, 2024
No action in second preseason game
Goedert did not play in Friday's 14-13 preseason win over the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has been a full participant at training camp, but Philadelphia's first-team offense hasn't yet been called up for preseason action. The starting tight end is coming off a 2023 campaign in which he suited up for 14 regular-season games and put together a 59-592-3 receiving line. He's situated to again work as one of the Eagles' key skill-position starters, along with wideouts A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and new running Saquon Barkley.
Jan 16, 2024
Catches only TD for PHI
Goedert finished with four receptions (on six targets) for 21 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 32-9 playoff loss to the Buccaneers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert caught the only touchdown pass Jalen Hurts would throw against the Buccaneers in what turned out to be a dud of a game from the Eagles. The tight end generated some fantasy value for DFS players with his postseason score, putting a nice garnish on an otherwise bland fantasy regular-season campaign (59-592-3). Goedert will look to expand on his new career high of 59 receptions in the final year of his current contract with the Eagles in the upcoming 2024 season.
Jan 8, 2024
Minor role in Week 18
Goedert caught one pass for four yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Goedert only needed one catch to set a new career high in receptions (59), and one catch is all he got. While he'll end the year with a personal best in that category, his 592 yards represent his lowest mark since his rookie season, while his three touchdowns tied a career low. He also missed three games this season, bringing his total to 14 games missed over the last four years.
Dec 31, 2023
Ties career mark in receptions
Goedert had five receptions on six targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-31 loss to Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's five catches brought him up to 58 on the year, tying his previous personal best set back in 2019. The 28-year-old also caught one of Jalen Hurts' three touchdown passes Sunday, giving the tight end three receiving scores through 13 active games. Goedert's 2023 season will stand alone as his highest reception total if he can simply secure one catch in the regular-season finale against the Giants in Week 18.
Dec 25, 2023
Team-high seven grabs Monday
Goedert caught seven of nine targets for 71 yards in Monday's 33-25 win over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
The seven catches led the Eagles on the day as Goedert put together his best performance in three games since returning from a forearm injury. The tight end is only six receptions from setting a new career high of 59, a mark he could reach in Week 17 against the Cardinals.
Dec 19, 2023
Inefficient with nine targets
Goedert secured four of nine targets for 30 yards in the Eagles' 20-17 loss to the Seahawks on Monday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert finished with the second-most targets on the night for the Eagles but did little with them, leading to his second straight 4-30 line. The veteran tight end's target total tied a season high, but Goedert has now been at 50 receiving yards or less in four straight contests heading into a Week 16 home matchup against the Giants on Christmas Day.
Dec 11, 2023
Quiet in Week 14 return
Goedert (forearm) brought in all four targets for 30 yards in the Eagles' 33-13 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's return from a three-game absence was a relatively quiet one on a night when Jalen Hurts threw for just 197 yards. The talented tight end finished a distant third in receiving yards and targets behind the starting wideout duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, but he should have a chance to boost his production back up in a more palatable Week 15 matchup on the road against the Seahawks on Monday night, Dec, 18.
Dec 8, 2023
Cleared to face Dallas
Goedert (forearm) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Goedert returned to practice as a limited participant last Friday -- ultimately missing a loss to the 49ers on Sunday -- and then was listed as a full participant Wednesday through Friday this week. The Eagles likely will put him right back in his usual three-down role, as the forearm fracture presumably didn't have much impact on his conditioning and the upcoming game could end up being the difference between the first seed and fifth seed in the NFC playoffs.
Dec 7, 2023
Logs full practice Thursday
Goedert (forearm) practiced fully Thursday.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles held a walkthrough Wednesday, when Goedert was listed as full, so his ability to handle an entire practice one day later puts him one step closer to making his first appearance since Week 9. Aside from getting blanked on one target in the season opener, he made multiple catches from Weeks 2 through his last appearance, compiling a 38-410-2 line on 51 targets in eight games. Goedert will slot back in as Philadelphia's No. 1 tight end Sunday night in Dallas alongside the team's top two wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
Dec 6, 2023
Logs full walkthrough Wednesday
Goedert (forearm) was listed as a full on Wednesday's practice estimate.
ANALYSIS
This marks Goedert's second on-field appearance since fracturing his right forearm back in Week 9, and an uncapped walkthrough signifies that he's ready to return to action. Prior to the injury, he never fell below a 76 percent snap share on a weekly basis, resulting in a 38-410-2 line on 52 targets in nine games. Assuming he suits up Sunday night at Dallas, Goedert should be poised for a similar workload alongside wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
Dec 3, 2023
Inactive Sunday, as expected
Goedert (forearm) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert will miss a third consecutive contest due to the broken right forearm that he suffered Week 9, but he made notable progress in his recovery effort during Week 13 prep, catching passes on the side Thursday before returning to practice as a limited participant Friday. With Goedert sidelined, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra (ankle) will handle most of the tight end reps for the Eagles, while Albert Okwuegbunam is on hand for his typical handful of snaps. Goedert will set his sights on returning to action next Sunday night at Dallas.
Dec 3, 2023
Unlikely to play
Goedert (forearm) will not play in Week 13 against the Niners, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.
ANALYSIS
We'll await for the official word 90 minutes before kickoff from the Eagles, but this should come as no surprise, with Goedert being listed as doubtful coming in.
Dec 1, 2023
Status in doubt for Sunday
Goedert (forearm) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest versus the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has made a strikingly fast recovery from a broken right forearm that he suffered Week 9 and required a subsequent surgery. After he was seen catching passes on the side Thursday, he proceeded to mix into drills Friday for the first time since sustaining the injury. Goedert was deemed a limited participant in his return to practice, but his designation of doubtful doesn't give him much of a chance to be available this weekend. Having said that, he told Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer earlier Friday that he'll meet with team doctors, coaches and trainers to see where the tight end stands, and ultimately a decision on his status will be made by the Eagles. If Goedert is inactive Sunday, Jack Stoll will continue to handle most of the TE reps for Philly.
Dec 1, 2023
Returns to practice
Goedert (forearm) returned to practice Friday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
This marks Goedert's first participation of any kind since suffering a forearm fracture in the Week 9 win over Dallas. It remains to be seen if he's a full or limited participant and whether the Eagles give him a real chance to play Sunday against the 49ers.
Nov 30, 2023
Remains sidelined at practice
Goedert (forearm) was held out of practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Somewhat encouragingly, Goedert was spotted catching passes on the side during Thursday's session, per Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer. However, Goedert continues to sit out actual drills just three days out from Sunday's huge matchup with the 49ers. According to James Palmer of NFL Network, Goedert intended to push toward returning to action this weekend from the broken forearm that he suffered Week 9, but his lack of on-field activity so far seemingly puts him on the outside looking in. Friday's injury report may reveal Goedert's fate for Week 13 action.

Not practicing yet
Goedert (forearm) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has yet to practice since breaking his right forearm Week 9 and subsequently undergoing surgery to address the issue. Because of the Eagles' Week 10 bye, he's missed only two games as a result of the injury, and recent rumblings out of Philadelphia have suggested that Goedert is making an attempt to be available Sunday against the 49ers, per James Palmer of NFL Network. With one chance gone to mix into drills this week, Goedert likely will need to get back on the field Thursday and/or Friday to give himself a chance to return to action Week 13.
Nov 27, 2023
Pushing to play in Week 13
Goedert (forearm) is targeting a return to the field Sunday versus the 49ers, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's participation in practice this week will better illuminate his chances of suiting up in Week 13. The tight end hasn't played since Week 9 due to a fractured right forearm, though due to the timing of Philadelphia's bye he's only actually missed two games so far. Palmer reports that whether or not Goedert can go versus the 49ers, the Eagles consider it realistic for him to be on the field for Week 14's divisional matchup against the Cowboys.
Nov 24, 2023
Ruled out but making progress
Goedert (forearm) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Buffalo, but he's healing quicker than initially expected and has been able to do cardio workouts, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Nick Sirianni told reporters there's a reason Goedert wasn't placed on injured reserve, hinting that the tight end has a chance to return before missing four games. It'll be his second absence when the Eagles face the Bills on Sunday, leaving Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam as the healthy tight ends with Grant Calcaterra (ankle) set to join Goedert on the inactive list.
Nov 22, 2023
Still not practicing
Goedert (forearm) didn't practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
After fracturing his right forearm Week 9 and undergoing surgery, Goedert was expected to miss multiple weeks. So far, he's sat out just one game (Week 11) due to the Eagles having a Week 10 bye, but his lack of activity Wednesday indicates another absence may be on tap Sunday versus the Bills. The Eagles likely will clear up Goedert's status for Week 12 by the time they post their final practice report Friday.
Nov 18, 2023
Officially ruled out vs. Chiefs
Goedert (forearm) is ruled out for Monday's game against the Chiefs, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was already considered doubtful for Monday Night Football, so it comes as little surprise to see him ultimately ruled out. He didn't practice in any capacity this week, but Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports that coach Nick Sirianni expressed optimism that the starting tight end would be able to return before missing three games, hence the Eagles not having placed him on IR. Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and perhaps Albert Okwuegbunam will see expanded reps at tight end until Goedert is ready to retake the field.
Nov 17, 2023
Not practicing Friday
Goedert (forearm) isn't practicing Friday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
While not officially ruled out this week, Goedert is expected to miss multiple games after suffering a broken forearm Week 9 against the Cowboys and subsequently having surgery. A Week 10 bye worked in his favor, but the Eagles nonetheless figure to rely on Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra (concussion) and/or Albert Okwuegbunam at tight end this Monday against the Chiefs.
Nov 16, 2023
Spectator for Thursday's practice
Goedert (forearm) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was in attendance for the Eagles' first official practice of Week 11, but the fact that he was merely watching the session comes as little surprise after he suffered a broken forearm in Philadelphia's Week 9 loss to Dallas on Nov. 5. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that Goedert required surgery to address the injury, and the tight end is expected to face a recovery timeline of roughly four weeks. The Eagles haven't confirmed that timeline and have yet to officially rule Goedert out for Monday's game against the Chiefs coming off their Week 10 bye, but head coach Nick Sirianni acknowledged earlier Thursday that he's not counting on the tight end being available in Kansas City, per Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports. Expect the Eagles to formally rule Goedert out for Week 11 following the release of their final injury report Saturday.
Nov 6, 2023
Facing expected four-week absence
Goedert is expected to have surgery as soon as Monday to address a fractured right forearm and is likely facing a four-week recovery timeline, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert suffered the injury in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys late in the second half and finished the game with three receptions for 50 yards on four targets. Though Goedert scheduled to undergo an MRI early Monday before a determination is made on his next steps, the expectation is that he'll be sent in for surgery later in the day on the recommendations of his doctor. The Eagles are on bye Week 10, so if the estimated four-week recovery timeline proves to be accurate, Goedert could avoid injured reserve if the team is optimistic he'll miss only three games rather than four. Once surgery is completed and the team returns from its bye week, the Eagles will likely reassess Goedert and decide if he needs to placed on IR prior to a Week 11 matchup with the Chiefs on Nov. 20. Jack Stoll has been serving as the team's No. 2 tight end this season, but the Eagles could lean more heavily on Albert Okwuegbunam when they want more of a pass-catching threat at the position on the field for whatever length of time
Nov 5, 2023
To miss time with fractured forearm
Goedert suffered a fractured forearm in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys and is a candidate to go on injured reserve, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert exited in the second half of Sunday's win after landing on his arm at the end of a catch and run. The tight end will get an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the injury, but even the most optimistic scenario at this point would likely result in him missing time. Philadelphia will be on bye in Week 10 before facing Kansas City in Week 11. Jack Stoll is the top candidate to take over the starting tight end role for the duration of Goedert's absence, with increased playing time possible for Grant Calcaterra (concussion) and Albert Okwuegbunam as well.
Nov 5, 2023
Won't return against Dallas
Goedert (forearm) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Goedert went to the locker room after falling awkwardly at the end of a catch in the second half. He was originally deemed questionable to return but has subsequently been ruled out. Goedert will finish Sunday's game with three catches for 50 yards on four targets. While the severity of Goedert's injury has yet to be clarified, the tight end will have the benefit of a Week 10 bye to recover before the Eagles return to action in a Week 11 Super Bowl rematch in Kansas City of MNF.
Nov 5, 2023
Has forearm injury
Goedert officially was diagnosed with a right forearm injury during Sunday's game versus the Cowboys, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
At the end of a 28-yard catch and run, Goedert had his right arm twisted to the ground and also landed hard on that region, which forced him to the locker room late in the third quarter. Per Zangaro, X-rays were ordered up for Goedert before he was deemed questionable to return. Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam are the only other healthy tight ends on the active roster with Grant Calcaterra (concussion) inactive.
Nov 5, 2023
Departs Sunday's game early
Goedert went to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Cowboys to have his right arm examined, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
At the end of a 28-yard catch and run late in the third quarter, Goedert remained on the turf and was tended to by Eagles trainers before leaving the field. If he's unable to return, he'll come out of Week 9 with three receptions (on four targets) for 50 yards and no touchdowns. With Grant Calcaterra (concussion) inactive, Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam are the team's healthy and available tight ends.
Oct 30, 2023
Four catches in win
Goedert secured four of seven targets for 36 yards in the Eagles' 38-31 win over the Commanders on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert saw the top wideout duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith garner the majority of Jalen Hurts' attention, as he finished a distant third in receptions and receiving yards to his pair of talented teammates. The veteran tight end's middling yardage number was his first tally below 40 since Week 4 against this same Commanders squad, but he could be more involved in a Week 9 home showdown against the Cowboys.
Oct 23, 2023
Scores second TD on SNF
Goedert (groin) brought in all five of his targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
An undermanned Dolphins defense had its hands full trying to contain Jalen Hurts and the Eagles' talented group of wideouts, creating plenty of mismatches for Goedert to take advantage of across the middle Sunday. The 28-year-old was limited by a groin injury during the practice week, but the tight end's play was clearly unaffected as he barreled into the end zone for his second touchdown in three weeks. Goedert's recent hot streak has helped erase a rough start to start the season, bringing his receiving line up to 31-324-2 heading into a division matchup against the Commanders next Sunday.
Oct 20, 2023
Good to go
Goedert (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Miami.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was a limited practice participant throughout the week and should be ready for his usual three-down role Sunday night. He's produced just one big receiving line in six tries this year, but better days should be ahead given that his playing time and usage stats don't look much different from last season's.
Oct 19, 2023
Stays limited Thursday
Goedert (groin) was limited at Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Goedert is operating with a cap on his reps through the first two sessions of Week 7 prep. A groin injury is to blame, and Friday's practice report ultimately will reveal whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins.
Oct 18, 2023
Limited by groin issue
Goedert was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a groin injury.
ANALYSIS
Aside from a 8-117-1 performance on nine targets Week 5 at the Rams, Goedert has accounted for just 18 catches (on 27 targets) for 130 yards and no scores in his other five contests this season. With a health concern in tow to kick off Week 7 prep, his status will be one to watch as the weekend approaches to get a sense of his availability for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Oct 15, 2023
Stays involved on eight targets
Goedert had five receptions on eight targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Goedert followed up his standout performance against the Rams with another productive game in Week 6. Philadelphia's starting tight end was unable to recreate his trip to the end zone, but he remained a focal part of the passing attack with eight more targets Sunday. Goedert's improved play comes right as the Eagles prepare to face the Dolphins' high-scoring offense when the Super Bowl hopefuls meet in Week 7. If the game lives up to the billing, there could be room for multiple crooked fantasy scores Sunday, making Goedert an attractive fantasy option following his improved play of late.
Oct 8, 2023
Monster game in win
Goedert had eight receptions on nine targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Goedert finally broke out with a monster fantasy line following a pedestrian start to the year where he averaged just 22 receiving yards with no touchdowns over his first four contests. The 28-year-old actually surpassed the combined fantasy production from his four-game slump in one go Sunday. While this was a step in the right direction, Goedert will have to generate consistent results in order to become a top fantasy tight end. He can help accomplish that with a strong follow-up performance against the Jets in Week 6.
Oct 3, 2023
Quiet game in Week 4
Goedert caught two of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's overtime win against Washington.
ANALYSIS
Jalen Hurts tied his season high with 37 pass attempts, but 13 of those went to A.J. Brown and nine more went to DeVonta Smith, leaving little for Goedert to do. The quiet Week 4 performance means Goedert is now averaging just 3.3 catches and 22.0 yards per game. He's also yet to score a touchdown. The sixth-year tight end will look to get his season going Sunday against the Rams.
Sep 25, 2023
Seven more targets in Week 3
Goedert caught five of seven targets for 41 yards in Monday's 25-11 win over the Buccaneers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has notched seven targets in consecutive games after being targeted only once in the opener, but the tight end is being used as a security valve rather than a downfield threat. He has just 63 yards through three games after averaging 56.7 yards per game played over the previous two seasons, and Goedert has yet to find the end zone in 2023. Goedert will look to pick up the pace in Week 4 against the Commanders. Washington held him to just 49 yards in two meetings last season, but Goedert found the end zone in both games.
Sep 15, 2023
Does little on six catches
Goedert brought in six of seven targets for 22 yards in the Eagles' 34-28 win over the Vikings on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
On the bright side, Goedert recorded his first six grabs of the season, a tally that also served as a team-high figure. The talented tight end did all his work close to the line of scrimmage, however, and nine of his yards came on one reception. Goedert's meager production thus far appears to largely be circumstantial, as Jalen Hurts has thrown for under 200 yards in each of the first two game. The sixth-year pro will look to make more of an impact in a Week 3 Monday night road matchup against the Buccaneers on Sept. 25.
Sep 10, 2023
Disappears in Week 1 win
Goedert failed to record a reception on one target in Sunday's 25-20 win over the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Weather limited the Eagles' offensive gameplan to a relatively conservative approach, and that left Goedert lacking targets. While it was certainly a disappointing start to the new season, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that coach Nick Sirianni specifically addressed Goedert's lack of involvement after the game, saying, "We can't go a game without getting Goedert the football." Both A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith will dominate targets in the passing attack, but Goedert should see more of a role in Week 2 against the Vikings.
Aug 12, 2023
Not suiting up Saturday
Goedert isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason contest in Baltimore, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Along with quarterback Jalen Hurts and the rest of the starting offense, Goedert won't be out there for the Eagles' exhibition opener. Instead, some combination of Dan Arnold, Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson will man tight end. Goedert's next opportunity for game action is this coming Thursday versus the Browns.
May 23, 2023
Focused on improving routes
Goedert has been spending more time with the Eagles wide receivers this spring to work on his routes and releases, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
The tight end said he started spending more time with the WRs last season and has continued with it during/after spring workouts. Goedert caught 79.7 percent of his targets last year and had career highs for catches and yards per game -- 4.6 for 58.5 -- but he missed five straight weeks with a shoulder injury and finished at 55/702/3, down from 56/830/4 in 15 games the year before. He could have a career year in 2023 without a significant increase in target share if the Philadelphia offense remains elite and Goedert simply has better luck with TDs and/or injuries. He remains the third option in the passing game, behind WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith and potentially facing a bit more competition for short passes following the trade for RB D'Andre Swift.
Feb 13, 2023
Six catches in Super Bowl defeat
Goedert recorded six receptions on seven targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 38-35 Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Goedert concluded his postseason in strong fashion, and he tallied at least five receptions in all three games. His Super Bowl performance was highlighted by a pair of 17-yard receptions on a drive midway through the third quarter to help set up a field goal. In five seasons with the Eagles, Goedert has topped 50 receptions on three occasions and will return to the team in 2023.
Jan 29, 2023
Team-high five grabs Sunday
Goedert caught five of six targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 31-7 win over the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game.
ANALYSIS
It wasn't a big performance by any means, but the tight end's five receptions actually led the Eagles in a game where they didn't need to throw the ball much after the loss of Brock Purdy (elbow) derailed the Niners' offense. Goedert has a 10-81-1 line on 11 targets through two playoff games this season, and he figures to have a solid floor with some upside potential in two weeks during the Super Bowl.
Jan 21, 2023
Productive in divisional-round win
Goedert secured all five targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 38-7 divisional-round win over the Giants on Saturday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert checked in second in receptions and receiving yards to DeVonta Smith for the Eagles on the night, and he was on the receiving end of a 16-yard touchdown toss from Jalen Hurts that opened the scoring on the night. The fourth-year tight end just missed out on a second score two possessions later when he was brought down on the three-yard line, but Goedert will head into an NFC Championship Game battle versus either the Cowboys or 49ers a week from Sunday with plenty of momentum.
Jan 8, 2023
Six catches against Giants
Goedert caught six of seven targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
In Jalen Hurts' first game back from a shoulder strain, Goedert has his most catches in three games since returning from his own shoulder injury. The tight end wraps up the regular season with 55 catches on 69 targets for 702 yards and three touchdowns over 12 contests, and Goedert and Hurts will both get an extra week to rest and heal with the Eagles having secured a first-round bye, and the top seed in the NFC.
Jan 1, 2023
Quiet against Saints
Goedert recorded three receptions on six targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Saints.
ANALYSIS
A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith combined to account for 22 targets on Gardner Minshew's 32 pass attempts, leaving little for other Philadelphia pass catchers. Goedert still managed to turn in a respectable performance, highlighted by receptions of 18 and 15 yards in the second half as the Eagles tried to get back into the game. In two games since returning from a shoulder injury, Goedert has combined to record six receptions for 112 yards.
Dec 24, 2022
Posts three catches in Week 16
Goedert gathered in all three of his targets for 67 yards during Saturday's 40-34 loss in Dallas.
ANALYSIS
In his return to action following a five-game absence due to a shoulder injury, Goedert didn't appear worse for wear, but he also ranked fifth in targets on the Eagles behind DeVonta Smith (12), A.J. Brown (eight), Quez Watkins (five) and Kenneth Gainwell (four). On a positive note for Goedert, though, no other Philly tight end was targeted, so he seems to have retaken full control of the position. He was working with backup quarterback Gardner Minshew on Saturday with Jalen Hurts (shoulder) out, so Goedert's prospects could be lifted somewhat moving forward if Hurts is able to play in Weeks 17 and/or 18.
Dec 20, 2022
Comes off IR
The Eagles activated Goedert (shoulder) from injured reserve to the 53-man roster Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert appeared to have a shot at suiting up for Sunday's win over the Bears, but he wasn't ultimately activated for the contest. Now however, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports, the standout tight end is expected to suit up for Saturday's divisional road matchup against the Cowboys. The extent of Goedert's participation in practice should hint at whether he could have any limitations in his first return to action since Week 10. With Jalen Hurts (shoulder) looking uncertain for Week 16, though, it's also possible Goedert's return could come with Gardner Minshew under center.
Dec 17, 2022
Not off injured reserve yet
The Eagles didn't activate Goedert (shoulder) ahead of Sunday's game at Chicago, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
After missing the requisite four games on injured reserve, Goedert was designated for return Wednesday, which allowed him to practice for the first time since he injured his shoulder Week 10 against the Commanders. It appears Philadelphia will take a cautious approach with their No. 1 tight end, though, and keep him out for one more contest, with an eye toward returning next Saturday, Dec. 24 in Dallas. In the meantime, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra will continue to man the position for the Eagles.
Dec 14, 2022
Looks on track to play
Goedert (shoulder) didn't anything definitive Wednesday, but he took part in practice and appears on track to play Sunday against the Bears, according to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Goedert won't be included on the official injury report because he's technically still on injured reserve. The Eagles designated him for return Wednesday, opening a 21-day window in which he can practice with the team while not counting against the active roster. He'll likely be back on the roster soon enough, however, and quite possibly in time for Sunday's meeting with the Bears. The tight end has already missed the IR minimum of four games.
Dec 14, 2022
Resumes practicing
The Eagles designated Goedert (shoulder) for return from injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The transaction opens up a 21-day window wherein the Eagles can evaluate Goedert in practice, but the 27-year-old will likely be added back to the 53-man roster well before that three-week window expires. In fact, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer relays that the Eagles anticipate Goedert will be ready to play this Sunday against the Bears, provided he doesn't experience any setbacks in practice over the next three days. Whenever he's activated, Goedert should slot back atop the depth chart at tight end, resulting in Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra losing out on work. Goedert's impending return will provide yet another boost to an Eagles offense that has been averaging 35 points per game during his four-week absence.
Dec 8, 2022
Works off to side Thursday
Goedert (shoulder) was spotted working out off to the side at Thursday's practice, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Since he's only missed three games thus far since being placed on injured reserve Nov. 16, Goedert won't be eligible to begin taking part in practice with the Eagles' healthy players until after Sunday's matchup with the Giants. Based on what he was able to do off to the side Thursday -- Tolentino notes that Goedert looked "very smooth" while running sprints and cutting around cones -- the tight end looks like he'll be ready to mix back into drills next week and potentially return from IR in advance of the Eagles' Dec. 18 game in Chicago. None of the Eagles' three tight ends (Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson) have been overly involved in the passing attack in Goedert's absence the past three games; instead, No. 3 wideout Quez Watkins (shoulder) has been the main beneficiary of Goedert's vacated target volume.
Nov 30, 2022
Sheds shoulder sling
Goedert (shoulder) said Wednesday that he's no longer wearing a sling and expects to return from injured reserve after missing the minimum four games, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's recovery appears to be continuing on track and free of setbacks, so the Eagles' plan remains for him to be back on the field when first eligible Week 15 in Chicago. The 27-year-old's impact on offense can't be understated, so especially as Philadelphia eyes a playoff run, the tight end's health will be one of the team's top priorities. If Goedert is indeed able to return Week 15, he could also have a shot to contribute late in the fantasy season, though managers will need to account for the possibility that he's eased back into action and handles a limited snap count out of the gate.
Nov 16, 2022
Hopes to return in mid-December
Goedert (shoulder) hopes to return after the four-week minimum and play in a Dec. 18 game against the Bears, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles placed him on injured reserve Wednesday, ruling the tight end out for at least four games. Goedert hopes it won't be any more than that but will still need to see how his shoulder responds in the coming weeks. The Eagles are left with Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson at tight end.
Nov 16, 2022
Officially moves to IR
The Eagles placed Goedert (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert appeared to suffer a shoulder injury during Monday's divisional loss to the Commanders, on a play which saw him be tackled via an uncalled facemask grab. The team reportedly doesn't believe Goedert is done for the season, but the top tight end will have to miss at least four weeks now that he's been placed on IR, and he remains without an official return timetable. Philadelphia will have to rely on combination of Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson (knee) to hold down the fort at tight end, but the departure of a playmaker as impactful as Goedert could notably impact the offense until such time as he's able to return.
Nov 15, 2022
Out indefinitely due to shoulder
Goedert is expected to miss extended time after suffering a shoulder injury in Monday's 32-21 loss to the Commanders, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The exact nature of Goedert's injury isn't yet known, nor has a timeline for a return been established or a decision been made on whether or not he'll go on injured reserve, but the Eagles don't believe the tight end will be lost for the season. In Monday's game, Goedert recorded three receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown on three targets, but he had a key lost fumble in the fourth quarter. On that lost fumble, Goedert appeared to be grabbed in the facemask by a Washington defender, but the penalty wasn't called and Goedert appeared to suffer the injury on the play in question. The Eagles are likely to offer further details on Goedert's injury in the days to come, but expect the team to turn to a combination of Jack Stoll and rookie Grant Calcaterra to fill in for him at tight end for the next few weeks.
Nov 15, 2022
Records TD, fumble in Week 10 loss
Goedert caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and a touchdown but also lost a fumble in Monday's 32-21 loss to the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Goedert gave the Eagles a 14-7 lead with a six-yard touchdown catch late in the first quarter, but Washington stormed back with 13 unanswered points in the second to take a 20-14 lead into the locker room. After Philadelphia cut the deficit to two in the fourth quarter, Goedert lost possession of the ball while being brought down by his facemask. The facemask went unnoticed but the fumble stood, and Goedert headed to the blue medical tent after the play, adding injury to insult. He returned on the next drive, but the fumble proved to be a pivotal moment in Philadelphia's first loss of the season. After finding the end zone only once through seven games, Goedert has compiled a two-game touchdown streak, which he will look to extend in Week 11 against the Colts.
Nov 3, 2022
Paces pass catchers in Week 9 win
Goedert brought in eight of nine targets for 100 yards and a touchdown during the Eagles' 29-17 win over the Texans on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert and Jalen Hurts consistently tormented the Texans' defense throughout the night, pacing the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards and targets in the process. The fifth-year tight end's catch total tied a season high as well, and the 100-yard effort was his first since Week 15 of last season. Goedert recorded his second touchdown of the season on a four-yard grab early in the fourth quarter for good measure, and he'll next take aim at the Commanders in a Week 10 home divisional clash on Monday night, Nov. 14.
Oct 30, 2022
Racks up six receptions
Goedert recorded six receptions on six targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 35-13 win over the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was extremely efficient with his targets and managed to finish tied for the team lead with six receptions, his second-highest total of the season. He chipped in long gains of 17 and 16 yards, though he failed to tally a reception of 20 yards or more for only the second time in seven games this season. Goedert remains relatively uninvolved near the end zone, though he's otherwise held a consistent role as he now has at least five receptions in four contests on the campaign.
Oct 17, 2022
Limited to two receptions
Goedert caught two of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 26-17 win over the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was asked to stay back and block a little more than he is used to following the early departure of star right tackle Lane Johnson (concussion), which is part of the reason he finished with such a forgettable stat line. The 27-year-old was providing consistent production with at least six standard fantasy points in every game prior to Sunday's dud. Goedert's fantasy managers will have to wait until after the Eagles' upcoming bye week to see if he can bounce back against the Steelers on Oct. 30.
Oct 9, 2022
Strong efficiency on nine targets
Goedert caught eight passes for 95 yards on nine targets against Arizona on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has conclusively demonstrated high-level ability as an NFL tight end and thus far in 2022 he's been highly effective for the Eagles, turning 29 targets into 24 receptions for 335 yards and a touchdown. The one issue is that his target volume is rather modest as he competes for targets against two star wide receivers, and Goedert might be hard-pressed to maintain his excellent efficiency. Regardless of the week to week fluctuation, Goedert should provide standout tight end production as a top-three pass catcher in one of the league's most productive offenses. He faces Dallas in Week 6.
Oct 2, 2022
Gains 72 yards in victory
Goedert caught five of six targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 29-21 win over Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was Jalen Hurts' second-favorite option Sunday, finishing just one target behind A.J. Brown. The 27-year-old is off to a promising start in 2022, racking up 240 yards and a touchdown on an 80 percent catch rate through four contests. Goedert remains a strong play at a shallow fantasy position against the Cardinals next Sunday.
Sep 25, 2022
Finds end zone
Goedert caught three passes for 26 yards and one touchdown on four targets against Washington on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert briefly left the game with a shin issue but returned shortly afterward. Goedert is a good player and like most weeks he made efficient use of his workload Sunday, but as a pass catcher he might be a tad overqualified for the target count the Philadelphia offense can offer him. At the very least it will be difficult for Goedert to draw heavy usage when DeVonta Smith (eight catches for 169 yards and one touchdown on 12 targets) and A.J. Brown (five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown 10 targets) produce like they did against Washington. If one of those two should see lighter usage in a given game then that would likely open up more opportunity for Goedert. Through three games Goedert has 11 receptions for 168 yards and one touchdown on 14 targets.
Sep 25, 2022
Returns Sunday
Goedert (shin) has returned to Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert caught three passes for 26 yards and a touchdown before leaving the contest briefly. He'll look to continue his strong play in the second half of Sunday's matchup.
Sep 25, 2022
Questionable to return Sunday
Goedert (shin) is questionable to return Sunday against the Commanders, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert caught three passes for 26 yards and a touchdown before suffering the injury. If he's unable to return, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra would be candidates for increased roles.
Sep 20, 2022
Paces team in yardage Monday
Goedert brought in five of six targets for 82 yards in the Eagles' 24-7 win over the Vikings on Monday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert paced the Eagles in receiving yardage and shared runner-up status in catches in what was a second straight impressive effort to open the season. The athletic tight end now has eight receptions for 142 yards over the Eagles' first pair of contests, with the 17.8 yards per reception particularly standing out and perhaps a sign of a bigger downfield role this season. Goedert will look to continue stretching the field in a Week 3 road divisional matchup against the Commanders on Sunday.
Sep 11, 2022
Three grabs in Week 1 win
Goedert brought in three of four targets for 60 yards in the Eagles' 38-35 win over the Lions on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The athletic tight end was second in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Eagles while also tying with Kenneth Gainwell as distant runner-ups to A.J. Brown in targets as well. Goedert's 27-yard reception was the highlight of his day and was a tangible reminder of his downfield prowess, but fantasy managers will be hoping to see a bit more equity between the target share between him and Brown in a Week 2 Monday night showdown at home against the Vikings on Sept. 19.
Aug 27, 2022
Not suiting up Saturday
Goedert isn't slated to play in Saturday's preseason game in Miami, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert thus will make just one appearance during exhibition season after connecting with Jalen Hurts for a 22-yard touchdown back in preseason Week 1 against the Jets. While the Eagles are among the most run-heavy teams in the NFL and wide receiver A.J. Brown now is a member of the team, Goedert still should have plenty of opportunities to make weekly contributions in the box score as he looks to build upon a 56-830-4 line on 76 targets in 15 games from the 2021 campaign.
Jul 24, 2022
Locked in as top TE
Goedert will enter training camp as the Eagles' starting tight end for the first time in his career, Dave Spadaro of the team's official website.
ANALYSIS
The 2018 second-round pick was a big part of Philadelphia's offense each of his first four seasons, but most of that time was spent working as the No. 2 behind Zach Ertz in schemes that used a lot of multi-TE looks. The team finally moved on from Ertz midway through last season, right around the same time coach Nick Sirianni switched to a run-first approach. While the Eagles may shift toward a more balanced, unpredictable approach this year, a big part of the reason is offseason acquisition A.J. Brown, who also represents stiff target competition. Still, there's a chance for Goedert to break out in Year 5, with he, Brown and DeVonta Smith clearly the top three weapons for young QB Jalen Hurts.
Jan 16, 2022
Top receiver against Bucs
Goedert recorded six catches on 12 targets for 92 yards in Sunday's 31-15 wild-card round loss to the Buccaneers.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was one of the few Eagles who produced consistently throughout the game, and he led the team in most receiving stats. He found holes in the Tampa Bay secondary for several big plays, including catches that went for 28, 17 and 16 yards. The only thing missing from his performance was a trip to the end zone, with Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott instead tallying the team's touchdowns. Heading into 2022, Goedert figures to pair with DeVonta Smith as key members of Philadelphia's passing attack after he produced a career-high 830 receiving yards across 15 games during the 2021 campaign.
Jan 10, 2022
Back from COVID list
The Eagles reinstated Goedert (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.
ANALYSIS
Philadelphia restored all of its players on the virus list to the active roster ahead of Sunday's wild-card game in Tampa Bay, including three key skill-position players in Goedert and running backs Boston Scott and Jordan Howard. Along with Goedert, the Eagles also activated fellow tight end Jack Stoll, giving the team its top two options at the position in advance of the postseason. While Goedert and Stoll were sidelined in Week 18, Tyree Jackson stepped in as the primary tight end in the Eagles' loss to Dallas, recording three receptions for 22 yards and a touchdown before exiting the contest with what was later revealed as a torn ACL. Goedert, meanwhile, was in isolation during the game and finished the regular season with 56 catches for 830 yards and four touchdowns across 15 appearances.
Jan 8, 2022
Still on COVID-19 list
Goedert (illness) remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Saturday's game against the Cowboys, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports
ANALYSIS
As does Jack Stoll (illness), which sets the stage for Tyree Jackson, Richard Rodgers and Noah Togiai to handle the Eagles' tight end duties Week 18. Goedert thus will look clear the NFL's COVID-19 protocols in advance of the team's postseason opener next weekend.
Jan 3, 2022
Officially on COVID list
The Eagles placed Goedert (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's placement on the list was expected after Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported earlier Monday that the tight end was one of a dozen Eagles players who were positive for the virus during the team's latest round of testing. In addition to Goedert, his top backup, Jack Stoll, is also on the COVID list, temporarily leaving Tyree Jackson as the only tight end on the Eagles' active roster. Goedert will still have a chance to exit the NFL's COVID-19 protocol prior to Saturday's game against the Cowboys so long as he shows diminished symptoms of the virus in the days to come.
Jan 3, 2022
Tests positive for virus
Goedert is one of roughly 12 Eagles players who tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Assuming the Eagles are able to verify his positive test result, Goedert is expected to go on the reserve/COVID-19 list before the team resumes practicing Tuesday ahead of Saturday's regular-season finale against the Cowboys. Due to the NFL's updated COVID-19 return-to-play protocols that allowing players who test positive to rejoin their teams in shorter periods of time, Goedert could still have a chance to suit up Saturday. The tight end has taken on a heightened role in the Philadelphia passing attack over the team's past four games, generating a 21-339-2 receiving line on 26 targets.
Jan 2, 2022
Gets back involved
Goedert recorded six receptions on seven targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over Washington.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has fluctuated between being Jalen Hurts' favorite target and hardly being a part of the offense in recent weeks. He served in the former role Sunday and led the team in targets, yards and receptions. His performance was highlighted by four gains of more than 10 yards, with the only thing missing being a trip to the end zone. If Goedert is able to tally three catches in Week 18 against Dallas, he'll set a new career-high for catches in a campaign.
Dec 26, 2021
Limited to two grabs
Goedert secured two of four targets for 28 yards in the Eagles' 34-10 win over the Giants on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's final line would have looked a lot better had he not had a 21-yard touchdown grab early in the third quarter nullified by a holding penalty on Quez Watkins. The fourth-year tight end was coming off back-to-back 100-yard efforts, so to label his downturn Sunday as particularly disappointing, not to mention ill-timed, would be an understatement. Goedert will still have a chance to come through for fantasy managers in league championship games in a Week 17 road battle against Washington.
Dec 21, 2021
Explodes for 100-yard night
Goedert brought in seven of nine targets for 135 yards in the Eagles' 27-17 win over Washington on Tuesday night.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's reception, receiving yardage and target tallies were all team and season highs, as was his spectacular 45-yard catch early in the second quarter between two defenders. The tight end's rapport with spot starter Gardner Minshew in a Week 14 win over the Jets had certainly stood out, but his chemistry with Jalen Hurts was Tuesday was even more encouraging considering that it hadn't always been evident this season. Goedert heads into a very favorable Week 16 home date against the Giants with plenty of momentum afforded by his back-to-back 100-yard efforts.
Dec 17, 2021
Eagles-Washington moved to Tuesday
Goedert and the Eagles will no longer play Washington on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
ANALYSIS
Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is delaying the game two days. Goedert still figures to face a defense that's missing multiple starters.
Dec 5, 2021
Delivers against Jets
Goedert recorded six catches on six targets for 105 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 33-18 win over the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Goedert came alive with Gardner Minshew under center, matching his highest catch total of the season. He particularly delivered early in the game by accounting for Philadelphia's first two touchdowns of the game with receptions of 36 and 25 yards. Given that the Eagles were up by two scores for much of the second half, Minshew took to the air only 10 times in the final two quarters. That limited Goedert's potential to further deliver, though he still managed top 100 yards for the first time this season. The Eagles now head into a Week 14 bye, so Jalen Hurts (ankle) has the potential to be back under center by the next time Goedert takes the field.
Nov 30, 2021
Does nothing with three targets
Goedert caught one of his three targets for no yards in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Giants.
ANALYSIS
It seems the Giants' game plan in defending the passing game was centered around shutting down the Eagles' top two pass-catchers in Goedert and DeVonta Smith while forcing someone else to make plays. The strategy worked to perfection, shutting the tight end down completely and limiting Smith to just 22 yards on two catches. The 26-year-old should be a good bet to bounce back against the Jets in Week 13.
Nov 21, 2021
Team-high yardage total in win
Goedert brought in five of eight targets for 62 yards in the Eagles' 40-29 win over the Saints on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert cleared concussion protocol earlier in the week and then proceeded to turn in another rock-solid performance, one that saw him pace Philadelphia in both receptions and receiving yards. The fourth-year pro hasn't scored since Week 4, but he does have multiple receptions in every contest and is arguably Jalen Hurts' most trusted short/intermediate target. Goedert's next opportunity to get back into the end zone will come in a Week 12 road battle against the division-rival Giants.
Nov 19, 2021
Clears concussion protocol
Goedert has been removed from concussion protocol and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
ANALYSIS
It was a good Friday for Goedert, who agreed to a four-year contract extension in the morning and was cleared to play in the afternoon. He'll soon become one of the highest-paid tight ends in the league, with Philadelphia presumably banking on his receiving production to improve now that he's not losing snaps and targets to Zach Ertz. The 26-year-old Goedert has been freed for an every-down role since Ertz was traded to Arizona, but at the same time the Eagles have become far more focused on their rushing attack, with Jalen Hurts attempting only 54 passes over the past three games. Goedert does account for 15 of those, 27.7 percent, despite missing the final three quarters of last week's game after a hard hit from Broncos safety Justin Simmons left him in concussion protocol. Goedert likely will be back in his every-down role Sunday against the Saints, contract in hand and hoping to help the Eagles top a fellow NFC wild-card hopeful.
Nov 19, 2021
Signs four-year extension
Goedert (concussion) is signing a four-year contract extension with the Eagles, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Halfway through the final season of his rookie contract, Goedert now is signed with the Eagles through 2025, locked in alongside WR DeVonta Smith as a pass catcher for HC Nick Sirianni and OC Shane Steichen. The 26-year-old tight end has worked in an every-down role since the Eagles traded Zach Ertz to Arizona, though the increase in playing time has coincided with Sirianni's shift toward a run-first offense. Goedert is recovering from a concussion after an early exit from the Week 10 win at Denver, with a return to practice Thursday (as a limited participant) suggesting he has a shot to suit up this Sunday against the Saints.
Nov 18, 2021
Practices in limited fashion
Goedert (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
The limited showing amounts to progress for Goedert, who entered the NFL's concussion protocol after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit in Sunday's win over the Broncos, then missed practice Wednesday. While the extent of Goedert's practice activity Thursday isn't fully known, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer notes that the tight end was donning a helmet and did some route running and pass catching in the portion of the workout that was open to the media. Goedert won't necessarily need to practice fully Friday in order to play this weekend against New Orleans, but at the very least, he'll need to receive clearance from an independent neurologist.
Nov 18, 2021
Back at practice Thursday
Goedert (concussion) returned to practice Thursday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was removed from the first half of the Eagles' Week 10 win at Denver to be evaluated for a concussion, which eventually was confirmed. He was unable to practice Wednesday, but his activity Thursday included positional drills, at the very least. Philadelphia's second injury report of the week will reveal approximately where Goedert stands in the protocol for head injuries.
Nov 17, 2021
Listed as DNP with concussion
Goedert (concussion) is listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert left Sunday's win over the Broncos after taking a big hit, with coach Nick Sirianni later confirming that his starting tight end had been placed in concussion protocol. The Eagles used Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson in a timeshare after losing Goedert, who could also be out for Sunday's game against the Saints if he can't gain clearance by Saturday.
Nov 15, 2021
Concussion confirmed
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni confirmed Goedert (head) was placed in the NFL's concussion protocol after Sunday's 30-13 win over the Broncos, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert sustained the concussion on a helmet-to-helmet hit from Denver safety Justin Simmons and was ruled out for the remainder of the contest. He finished the contest with two receptions for 28 yards on two targets. Goedert will now have to navigate the NFL's five-step protocol for head injuries in the coming days as he looks to gain clearance for the Eagles' Week 11 matchup with the Saints.
Nov 14, 2021
Not returning Sunday
Goedert (head) won't return to Sunday's game in Denver.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was evaluated for a head injury following a hit to the helmet from Broncos safety Justin Simmons in the first quarter. The Eagles have yet to confirm that Goedert suffered a concussion, but he'll finish this contest with two catches (on two targets) for 28 yards. Philadelphia will have just Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson at tight end for the rest of Week 10.
Nov 14, 2021
Under evaluation for head injury
Goedert exited Sunday's game at Denver to be checked for a head injury.
ANALYSIS
Goedert took a hit to the helmet on a first-quarter catch and stayed down for a spell before walking slowly to the sideline. After a visit to the blue medical tent, he went to the locker room, where the Eagles will determine if he sustained a concussion. If he's unable to return, Goedert will finish Week 10 with two receptions (on two targets) for 28 yards. Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson are the remaining healthy tight ends on the game-day roster.
Nov 7, 2021
Three grabs in loss
Goedert caught three of six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
While it wasn't a particularly impressive effort, Goedert still finished second on the Eagles in catches and receiving yards while tying DeVonta Smith for the team lead in targets. The tight end has caught multiple passes in every game he's played this season, a streak he'll look to extend in Week 10 against the Broncos.
Oct 31, 2021
Paces team in receiving
Goedert caught six of his seven targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 44-6 win over the Lions.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles hardly needed to throw in this one, and when they did, they generally stayed short. As a result, Goedert ended up seeing half his team's targets. In two games since the Zach Ertz trade, the 26-year-old has caught nine of 12 targets for 142 yards and should be among the top tight ends in the league over the rest of the year.
Oct 24, 2021
Leading receiver in loss
Goedert caught three of five targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Raiders. He also caught a two-point conversion.
ANALYSIS
While he didn't see a lot of volume in his return from a one-game absence due to COVID-19 protocols, Goedert wound up leading Philadelphia in receiving yardage on the afternoon while setting a new season high in the category as well. The fourth-year tight end has yet to see more than five targets in a game, but he figures to be a key part of the Eagles' passing game in Week 8 against the Lions.
Oct 22, 2021
Set to play Sunday
Goedert, who was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, will play Sunday against the Raiders, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Per the report, in his return to the lineup, Goedert, who missed the Eagles' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers and didn't practice Thursday, won't be restricted this weekend. Going forward, with Zach Ertz having been traded to the Cardinals, Goedert should see steady volume on a weekly basis, as Philadelphia's clear-cut No. 1 tight end option.
Oct 22, 2021
Back at practice Friday
Goedert (illness) appears to be practicing Friday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old was reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday but didn't practice, though he was in attendance for the session. Now that he's back on the field, Goedert appears on track for a full workload Sunday in Las Vegas after missing one game due to COVID-19.
Oct 21, 2021
Misses practice Thursday
Goedert (illness) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, despite being activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list earlier in the day.
ANALYSIS
According to Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer Goedert was in attendance for the practice, though he was working off to the side during the media-access portion of the session. Since Goedert had been away from the team since Oct. 12 after testing positive for the COVID-19, the Eagles may have just been easing him back in while he works to regain conditioning. A clearer idea regarding Goedert's status for Sunday's matchup with the Raiders should come when the Eagles release their final Week 7 practice report, but assuming he participates in Friday's session in some capacity, he should be in line for a full workload on game day.
Oct 21, 2021
Comes off COVID list
The Eagles reinstated Goedert (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Though he wasn't able to clear all health and safety protocols ahead of the Eagles' first Week 7 practice Wednesday, Goedert should be back on the field Thursday and Friday. The pair of practice sessions should be enough for Goedert to get back up to full speed in advance of the Eagles' game Sunday in Las Vegas, where he could be in store for an uptick in snaps and targets compared to what he saw in the first five weeks of the season. Now that Zach Ertz is in Arizona, Goedert is locked in as the Eagles' clear No. 1 tight end, and he shouldn't have to yield much work to backup options Jack Stoll or Tyree Jackson (back), neither of whom has much NFL experience or prospect pedigree.
Oct 20, 2021
Not yet activated
Goedert (illness) wasn't present for Wednesday's practice, as the Eagles have yet to reinstate him from the reserve/COVID-19 list, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was revealed to have tested positive for COVID-19 on Oct. 12, with the timing of his illness making him unable to gain clearance ahead of last week's loss to the Buccaneers in a Thursday night game. Since Goedert is vaccinated, he's eligible to rejoin the team as soon as he submits two negative test results at least 24 hours apart, but the Eagles' decision not to activate him suggests he's still experiencing symptoms of the virus. If Goedert is able to clear all protocols ahead of Sunday's game in Las Vegas, he could be in store for one of his largest snap counts of the season now that Zach Ertz has been traded to Arizona. The two had previously shared the field together or split work in one-tight end sets, resulting in Goedert handling snap shares between 55 and 74 percent through his first five games of the season.
Oct 15, 2021
Finally alone atop depth chart
Goedert is the unquestioned no. 1 tight end for the Eagles now that Zach Ertz has been traded to Arizona, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
It's much later than expected, but it finally happened. The 2018 second-round pick finally gets the chance to be the Eagles' guy at tight end six weeks into his walk year. As a result, both Goedert and Ertz should each see a huge surge in value atop their respective teams' depth charts and without having to contend with the other for targets and snaps.
Oct 14, 2021
Officially out Thursday
Goedert (illness) won't be available for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers after he wasn't reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to the 4 p.m. ET deadline for the Eagles to make Week 6 roster moves, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Goedert wasn't able to clear all COVID-19-related health and safety protocols on a short week after he was revealed Tuesday to have tested positive for the virus. Since he's fully vaccinated, Goedert will be eligible for reinstatement as soon as he's asymptomatic and submits two negative tests at least 24 hours apart. With Goedert out for the Week 6 matchup, Zach Ertz could be in store for his heaviest snap share of the season as the Eagles' clear top tight end.
Oct 3, 2021
Scores TD, has another called back
Goedert caught all five of his targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 42-30 loss to the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Goedert scored a three-yard touchdown in the first quarter to give the Eagles a 10-7 lead, then had what would have been his second touchdown of the first half wiped out by an illegal formation penalty. The 26-year-old tight end has developed a nice rapport with 23-year-old quarterback Jalen Hurts, forming a dangerous duo that appears primed to trouble defenses in the red zone for years to come. Goedert has two touchdowns through four games and will look to build on that total against the Panthers in Week 5.
Sep 29, 2021
Season-high 66 yards in loss
Goedert caught two of his four targets for 66 yards in Monday's 41-21 loss to Dallas.
ANALYSIS
It looked like Goedert might be on his way to a big game when he caught the Eagles' first pass of the game for a 38-yard pickup. He would only see one more look in the half before starting the third quarter much the same way he started the first, with another big gain of 28 yards on the first play of the period. Unfortunately, the 26-year-old's production continues to be drained by the presence of Zach Ertz, who caught four balls on seven targets for 53 yards and a touchdown while playing one more snap. Thus far this season, it appears neither tight end will put up bankable production as long as the other is healthy and on the active roster.
Sep 19, 2021
Quiet in loss
Goedert recorded two receptions on two targets for 24 yards in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles didn't have much production through the air as a team, which trickled down to affect the pass catchers. Goedert finished second on the team with 24 yards, behind only Quez Watkins who tallied 117. Things should open up more for the offense in Week 3 against Dallas, though Jalen Hurts has shown a tendency to spread the ball around so Goedert may not have bankable volume moving forward.
Sep 12, 2021
Crosses goal line in opener
Goedert brought in four of five targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 32-6 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The top receiving duo of DeVonta Smith and Jalen Reagor outpaced him in receptions and receiving yards, but Goedert joined his speedy pair of teammates in finding the end zone. The fourth-year tight end saw three more targets than position mate Zach Ertz, and he and quarterback Jalen Hurts looked like they hadn't missed a beat after their productive finish to the 2020 campaign. Goedert will look to build on the strong season-opening effort versus the 49ers in Week 2.
Aug 28, 2021
Sits out preseason finale
Goedert did not play in Friday's preseason game against Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Goedert wasn't injured -- the Eagles just chose to give him the day off. Even with Zach Ertz still in town, the general expectation is that Goedert will take the lead in Philadelphia's tight end rotation this year, so they need him ready to make a leading contribution against Atlanta in Week 1.
Aug 19, 2021
Slated to play Thursday
Goedert is in line to play in Thursday's preseason contest versus the Patriots, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert and fellow tight end Zach Ertz were in the starting lineup in preseason Week 1 and appear poised to reprise their normal roles this week. Goedert (five snaps on offense) hauled in his only target for 34 yards, while Ertz (seven such plays) had two catches for 20 yards on three targets. The three receptions between the pair doubled as Jalen Hurts' only completions of the game, reflecting Goedert and Ertz' places in the Eagles offense. But rookie first-round wideout DeVonta Smith is slated to make his pro debut, and No. 1 RB Miles Sanders likely will be out there, too, so the TEs will have additional competition for targets.
Jun 30, 2021
Set to take over as TE1
Goedert is expected to be the Eagles' top tight end this season, Glenn Erby of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert outproduced Zach Ertz as the former ascended to the top of the team's depth chart in 2020, hauling in 46 balls for 524 yards and three scores. With Ertz reportedly on the trading block or a candidate for release before Week 1, the 26-year-old stands to take another statistical step forward this season, with the recently re-signed Richards Rodgers backing him up.
Jan 1, 2021
Won't play Sunday night
Goedert (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Washington.
ANALYSIS
With Goedert and Richard Rodgers (ankle) both out, Zach Ertz could handle an every-down role. Then again, the Eagles have already been eliminated from the playoffs, and they might want to take a look at reserves like Caleb Wilson and Jason Croom at some point Sunday night. Goedert finishes his second season with a 46/524/3 receiving line in 11 games, doing well to average 47.6 yards per game and 8.1 yards per target in a chaotic, subpar offense. He had his biggest games with Carson Wentz at quarterback, but Goedert did show decent chemistry with Jalen Hurts, catching 11 of 17 targets for 120 yards in Weeks 14-16.
Dec 31, 2020
Sits out another practice
Goedert (calf) was listed as a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has been idle for both of the Eagles' first two Week 17 practices while managing the calf issue. Head coach Doug Pederson hasn't clarified whether Goedert is at risk of missing Sunday's game against the Washington, but with the Eagles having been eliminated from playoff contention, the team could err on the side of caution and hold the tight end out for the season finale if there's truly any concern about his calf.
Dec 30, 2020
No go Wednesday
Goedert (calf) didn't practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert left Sunday's loss at Dallas due to a calf injury, which now is keeping him off the practice field. He'll have two additional chances this week to fit in some reps, but if he ends up limited or sitting out Sunday against Washington, Zach Ertz may handle the majority of TE reps with Richard Rodgers still unable to practice with his ankle issue.
Dec 27, 2020
Banged up Sunday
Goedert has been forced out of Sunday's game against the Cowboys due to a calf injury.
ANALYSIS
Goedert left the field early in the fourth quarter, and the Eagles are officially listing him as questionable to return. Zach Ertz will operate as Philadelphia's clear top tight end in the meantime, while Caleb Wilson operates in a No. 2 role.
Dec 21, 2020
Four grabs in loss
Goedert caught four of his eight targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 33-26 loss to Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Goedert's day was almost much better, as he was twice targeted in the end zone on the Eagles' penultimate drive, but he couldn't reel in either chance. The 25-year-old led the team in targets for a second-straight week, although this time Jalen Reagor saw eight, as well. The third-year vet also saw more snaps than any offensive skill player and 11 more than Zach Ertz.
Dec 15, 2020
Leads team in targets
Goedert caught four of his six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Goedert saw more targets than any other Eagle and tied for the club lead in catches. He also came just three yards shy of the top mark in receiving yards, perhaps highlighting the shortcomings of Eagles pass catchers with Jalen Hurts under center. On the bright side for the South Dakota State product, he has at least four catches and six targets in five-straight contests and was on the field for 59 snaps, nine more than Zach Ertz.

Another solid performance
Goedert caught five of seven targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Packers.
ANALYSIS
The tight end once again led the Eagles in receiving despite the return of Zach Ertz to the lineup, and a mid-game switch at quarterback to Jalen Hurts. The uncertainty at QB makes it tough to trust any member of the Philly offense right now, especially headed into a Week 14 clash with the Saints, but Goedert has seen at least six targets in four straight games, posting a 21-251-2 line during that stretch.
Dec 1, 2020
Leads team in receiving
Goedert caught seven of 10 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 23-17 loss to the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was comfortably quarterback Carson Wentz's favorite target, as he led the Eagles in all major receiving categories. Along with a 27-yard reception, Goedert's night was highlighted by his three-yard touchdown just before halftime. That play gave Goedert a score in consecutive games, and the tight end has topped 70 yards both of the last two weeks as well. Although teammate Zach Ertz (ankle) stands a chance of returning in Week 13 versus the Packers, Goedert should remain heavily involved as one of his team's few reliable pass-catching options.
Nov 22, 2020
Scores in loss to Browns
Goedert caught five of six targets for 77 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Browns.
ANALYSIS
Goedert led the team in catches and receiving yards while finishing second in targets. He produced his best yardage output since the season opener and topped off his performance with a four-yard touchdown grab in the final moments of the game. After struggling to assimilate back into the offense after his absence, Goedert now has nine receptions over his last two games and will look to continue his emergence as his team tries to keep pace with the Seahawks next Monday night.
Nov 17, 2020
Garners six targets in loss
Goedert caught four of his six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was on the field for all but five of the Eagles' 67 plays on offense and got more attention in his second game back from injury. Carson Wentz continued to divide targets up evenly, sending at least five to six different receivers. The impending return of Zach Ertz could muddle things even more for Goedert's outlook going forward.
Nov 2, 2020
Draws one target in return
Goedert (lower leg/ankle) caught his lone target for a 15-yard gain Sunday in the Eagles' 23-9 win over the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Playing for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain and fractured tibia in a Sept. 27 win over the Bengals, Goedert was thrust into a sizable role in his return to the lineup. Goedert played 53 of the Eagles' 63 offensive snaps in the victory, but Carson Wentz didn't pepper him with targets, with the quarterback instead spreading the ball around liberally between seven different pass catchers. With a Week 9 bye on tap, Goedert's involvement in the passing game should increase in the back half of the Eagles' schedule, especially with Zach Ertz (ankle) likely to miss at least a couple more games.
Oct 31, 2020
Moves off IR
Goedert (lower leg/ankle) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and will play in Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
It remains to be seen how much Goedert will actually play, but this is nevertheless fantastic news for fantasy managers considering most experts assumed the tight end would be out through the team's Week 9 bye. It's possible that because this is a divisional contest against the Cowboys, the team was intent on having all weapons on hand which would also explain the activation of Jalen Reagor (thumb), although that doesn't necessarily assume the lumbering tight end will be return to his full workload. Expect Goedert and Richard Rodgers to split snaps in some capacity as the former works his way back into game shape in this pivotal contest.
Oct 29, 2020
Keeping door open for Week 8 return
Goedert (ankle) said Thursday that he hasn't ruled himself out from playing this weekend against the Cowboys, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
When Goedert (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Sept. 29 after being diagnosed with a small fracture in his left ankle, the prevailing expectation was that he would be sidelined through the Eagles' Week 9 bye. However, after taking part in practice Wednesday when the Eagles designated him to return from IR, Goedert noted that his ankle responded well to the activity, leaving the possibility open for him to return to action sooner than expected. For now, the Eagles are labeling Goedert as day-to-day and are non-committal on his status for Week 8, so an official word on his status may not come until Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, the deadline for the Eagles to add him to the roster ahead of the game against Dallas. If the Eagles err on the side of caution and keep Goedert on IR through their bye, Richard Rodgers would be in store for another turn as the team's top tight end.
Oct 28, 2020
Will start week limited
Coach Doug Pederson said Wednesday that Goedert (ankle) will be limited in his return to practice, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert still isn't a lock to return for Sunday night's game against the Cowboys, given that Mike Garafolo of NFL Network previously reported he's not expected to suit up until Week 10, after the Eagles' bye. With Zach Ertz (ankle) expected to stay on IR for a few more weeks, that would put Richard Rodgers in line to draw another start, though it's worth noting that Goedert hasn't been officially ruled out and is eligible for activation as soon as he's fully cleared. Jalen Reagor (thumb) will also return to practice Wednesday, so at the very least Philadelphia's pass-catching corps is trending upward.
Oct 28, 2020
Back practicing again
The Eagles designated Goedert (ankle) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Slowly but surely, a banged-up Eagles pass-catching group is beginning to get healthier. While tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) and wideout DeSean Jackson (ankle) are expected to remain on IR for several more weeks, both Goedert and rookie Jalen Reagor (thumb) have been cleared to resume practicing this week, and Alshon Jeffery (calf/foot) should have a shot at making his season debut Sunday against Dallas. Goedert's return to practice doesn't necessarily mean the Eagles are counting on him being ready to play this weekend, as Wednesday's transaction merely opens up a 21-day window during which the team can evaluate him for a return. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported a few days earlier that Goedert is hopeful to return from IR following the Eagles' Week 9 bye, so Richard Rodgers still looks poised to serve as Philadelphia's top tight end for at least one more game.
Oct 22, 2020
Eyeing Week 10 return
Goedert (ankle) is on track to potentially come off injured reserve Week 10 for the Eagles' game against the Giants on Nov. 15, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
While coach Doug Pederson acknowledged Wednesday that Goedert is progressing well from the fractured left ankle that he sustained Sept. 27, the Eagles have yet to designate him to return from injured reserve. Unless Goedert is cleared to return to practice in the days following Thursday's home game versus the Giants, he likely won't warrant any serious consideration to play in the Eagles' Week 8 matchup with the Cowboys before the team heads into its bye Week 9. Fellow tight end Zach Ertz is also projected to miss 4-to-6 weeks after injuring his ankle last Sunday, which likely leaves Richard Rodgers to serve as the top option at the position for the Eagles' two games before the bye.
Oct 21, 2020
Recovery progressing on track
Coach Doug Pederson said Wednesday that Goedert is progressing well in his recovery from a dislocated left ankle, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles haven't yet designated Goedert to return from IR or resume practicing, but he's technically eligible to retake the field as early as Thursday night's game against the Giants. Given the severity of his injury, however, and the fact that fellow tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) is now facing a multi-week recovery of his own, Philadelphia could see fit to take a cautious approach to Goedert's recovery. If Goedert indeed isn't activated in time for Thursday's contest, Richard Rodgers stands to slot into the starting lineup.
Sep 29, 2020
Will miss at least three weeks
The Eagles placed Goedert (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was diagnosed with a small fracture in his left ankle following Sunday's 23-23 tie with the Bengals, and while he won't require surgery, the third-year TE will miss at least three games while on IR. He'll be eligible to return in Week 7 against the Giants, a Thursday night game. The Eagles pass catchers have been hit with a major injury bug, as Jalen Reagor (thumb) is out long term while Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) are uncertain for Sunday's game against the 49ers. Expect Richard Rodgers to handle some of the reps left behind by Goedert, but the team could opt to use fewer two tight-end sets for the time being.
Sep 29, 2020
Won't need surgery for ankle
Goedert is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks after being diagnosed Tuesday with a small fracture in his left ankle, but the tight end won't require surgery to address the injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Surgery may have put Goedert at risk of missing the rest of the season, but the 25-year-old looks like he may only be in store for a short-term trip to injured reserve, which would entail an absence of at least three games. The Eagles may even hold out hope that Goedert can beat that timeline and return to action Week 6 versus Baltimore, but for the time being, he can probably safely be ruled out for Sunday's game at San Francisco along with the Eagles' Oct. 11 game at Pittsburgh. Along with Goedert, wideouts Jalen Reagor (thumb), DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and Alshon Jeffery (foot) are all at risk of sitting out the Week 4 game, so the undermanned Eagles could be down to tight end Zach Ertz, running back Miles Sanders and receivers Greg Ward and John Hightower as the top targets in the passing game.
Sep 29, 2020
Dealing with fractured ankle
Goedert sustained a fractured left ankle in Sunday's 23-23 tie with the Bengals and is expected to miss an extended period of time, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Goedert would miss "some time" with the injury, though the coach didn't offer any specifics regarding the nature of the ankle issue, nor did he put a firm estimate on how long the tight end would be sidelined. With the news that Goedert is dealing with a fracture rather than a sprain to his left ankle, the 25-year-old looks to be a strong candidate for short-term injured reserve at the very least, which would result in a three-game absence. Fellow tight end Zach Ertz could absorb some extra targets while Goedert is on the mend, but there may be plenty of looks up for grabs among the Eagles' pass-catching corps with wideout Jalen Reagor (thumb) set to remain sidelined during the Eagles' Week 4 game in San Francisco. Alshon Jeffery (foot), DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (lower body) may also be at risk of missing that contest.
Sep 28, 2020
Without timetable for return
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Goedert (ankle) will miss "some time," Vaughn Johnson of the Eagles' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert was forced out of Sunday's 23-23 tie to the Bengals due to an ankle injury in the first quarter. The third-year pro appears to be on track to sit out Week 4's matchup against the 49ers, and possibly to miss action beyond that. Goedert had been an integral component of Philadelphia's passing game during the first two weeks, having accounted for 13 catches (18 targets), 131 yards and a touchdown, making his absence a significant blow for quarterback Carson Wentz. With all of Jalen Reagor (thumb), DeSean Jackson (hamstring), Alshon Jeffery (foot), J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (lower body) and Quez Watkins (upper body) also banged up, the Eagles have little in the way of healthy pass catchers behind Zach Ertz.
Sep 27, 2020
Likely to miss time
Goedert is "expected to miss some time" after injuring his left ankle during Sunday's 23-23 tie with the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert didn't play beyond the first quarter, finishing with one seven-yard catch. The Eagles will order up a battery of tests, including an MRI, to get to the bottom of the matter, but it appears there's some doubt about his upcoming availability. The team travels to San Francisco next Sunday, a game in which Zach Ertz may have all the targets he can handle due to injuries to Goedert and the wide receiver corps.
Sep 27, 2020
Ruled out Sunday
Goedert (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Goedert left the contest in the first quarter after making his only catch, a seven-yarder. Before heading to the locker room, his left ankle was examined by the team's medical staff, and the injury is severe enough to end his day. With Goedert out, Philly will lean on Zach Ertz to handle most of the TE work, while Richard Rodgers is the only other Eagle at the position.
Sep 27, 2020
Goes to locker room Sunday
Goedert (ankle) went to the locker room during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert limped off the field after making a seven-yard catch and had his left ankle examined on the sideline before the visit to the locker room. It's unclear if he'll be able to return, but in Goedert's absence Zach Ertz should have plenty of opportunity to produce with just Richard Rodgers to worry about in his position group.
Sep 21, 2020
Sees eight targets again
Goedert caught four of his eight targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 37-19 loss to the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Goedert has now seen one more target than Zach Ertz in each of the season's first two games and is outpacing him 131-60 in terms of yards. While neither did much in this contest, it seems the Eagles have two legit tight-end options heading into a Week 3 matchup with Cincinnati, and Goedert merits consideration as a low-end TE1 with that target share.
Sep 13, 2020
Scores, tops 100-yard mark
Goedert caught eight of nine targets for 101 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington.
ANALYSIS
Goedert led the team in targets, catches and yards in this one as a tough Washington defense keyed in on Zach Ertz. He helped his team race out to a 17-point lead in the second quarter when he made a beautiful over-the-shoulder touchdown catch on a deep ball from Carson Wentz. Goedert took a big step forward in terms of production in his second season and appears poised to do so again in his third NFL campaign, although the offense will be rather rich in terms of skill players once everyone is healthy. He will look to build on a strong debut next Sunday against the Rams.
Aug 23, 2020
Resumes practicing
Goedert (thumb) participated in Sunday's practice, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert suffered a hairline fracture in his left thumb Friday, but he's already managed to resume participating in practice, albeit with a wrap on his hand. Top tight end Zach Ertz (upper body) also retook the practice field Sunday, putting Goedert back in position to handle his usual amount of daily reps. Even if Goedert's thumb isn't fully healed by Week 1, the expectation appears to be that he'd play through any issues.
Aug 21, 2020
Dealing with thumb issue
Goedert reportedly has a hairline fracture in one of his thumbs, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.
ANALYSIS
The good news is that the tight end may be able return to practice next week, possibly sporting a splint on his injured thumb at that time. Fellow tight end Zach Ertz (upper body) is day-to-day himself, leaving extra practice reps for Josh Perkins, Noah Togiai and Caleb Wilson.
Aug 19, 2020
Added to injury list
Goedert is day to day with an upper-body injury, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert, Miles Sanders and Boston Scott were all held out of Wednesday's practice, but there hasn't been any indication that they're in danger of missing Week 1. The Eagles figure to have Joshua Perkins joining Zach Ertz in two-TE formations while Goedert is absent from practice.
Jun 20, 2020
Punched at restaurant
Goedert is uninjured after being sucker punched at a restaurant in South Dakota on Friday, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old was apparently out to eat with his family when he was punched unprovoked. Goedert made a precautionary trip to the hospital, but he checked out fine and was granted his release. The 2018 second-round pick is poised to work behind Zach Ertz as Philadelphia's second tight end again in 2020.
Oct 21, 2019
Finds end zone in defeat
Goedert (undisclosed) had to leave Sunday's contest early, but promptly re-entered the game and finished with four receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown in a 37-10 loss to Dallas.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles' second dynamic tight end suffered an injury scare in the early going, but he only missed a few plays before coming back to post his best stat line of the season. Goedert led all Philadelphia receivers in receptions, yards and touchdowns for the first time in his career. The 24-year-old had been a non-factor early in the year, but he has been coming on strong with nine receptions, 117 yards and Sunday's touchdown over his last two contests. Zach Ertz remains the top tight end in this passing attack, but coach Doug Pederson may be trending towards more formations with two tight ends to aid a wide receiving corps that has taken a beating this season. It's too early to give Goedert a high fantasy floor so long as Ertz is healthy, so expectations should be kept in check heading into Sunday's road matchup against the Bills.
Oct 20, 2019
Right back out there
Goedert (undisclosed) was able to return on Philadelphia's second drive after going into the medical tent on the first, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert didn't need to miss a single offensive snap, as he was quickly cleared of whatever injury he suffered on his fumble.
Oct 20, 2019
Into medical tent early
Goedert had to go to the medical tent with an undisclosed injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.
ANALYSIS
To add insult to injury, Goedert also fumbled on the play to set Dallas up in Eagles territory. Further word on his status should surface before long.
Sep 18, 2019
No activity Wednesday
Goedert (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
ANALYSIS
Deemed day-to-day by coach Doug Pederson earlier Wednesday, Goedert was a resident of the recovery room as opposed to being on the field with his teammates. Goedert has a pair of practices to prove his health before week's end, but the Eagles covered themselves in the event of a Week 3 absence with Tuesday's activation of Alex Ellis from the practice squad.
Sep 15, 2019
Battling calf injury
Goedert's injury has been clarified as a calf injury, and he's officially listed as questionable for the rest of Sunday's matchup with the Falcons, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Goedert hasn't been able to enter the game as of this writing.
Sep 15, 2019
Exits during warmups
Goedert had to go to the locker room during warmups prior to Sunday's game against the Falcons, suggesting a possible injury, Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com reports.
ANALYSIS
If Goedert is unable to suit up, that would leave Zach Ertz as Philadelphia's only tight end in uniform for this Sunday Night Football matchup.
Sep 4, 2019
Avoids injury report
Goedert (calf) wasn't listed on the Eagles' first injury report of Week 1.
ANALYSIS
Goedert made just one appearance during the preseason due to a tight hamstring, but the second-year tight end was confident in his ability to be available for the season opener. With a full practice under his belt, he'll serve as the No. 2 to starter Zach Ertz on Sunday against the Redskins.
