Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Looks to have avoided major injury
Rotowire
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.
Goedert played 40 of the Eagles' 56 offensive snaps and recorded three receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown on four targets before exiting in the fourth quarter. Though he appears to have avoided any structural damage to his knee, Goedert presumably will head in for an MRI on Monday as the Eagles 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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Sleeper TEs
Rotowire
We'll see if DeVonta Smith (hamstring) can return in Week 13 at Baltimore after not playing in Week 12 at the Rams, and I like Goedert as a must-start Fantasy tight end if Smith is out again. But even if Smith plays, Goedert is worth using as a low-end starter in all leagues. Goedert had a down game against the Rams with four catches for 19 yards on five targets, but I like this matchup for him against the Ravens, who are No 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends. Four tight ends have scored at least 8.7 PPR points against Baltimore in the past six games, and Goedert should be a primary target for Jalen Hurts in this matchup.

DeVonta Smith (hamstring) missed practice Wednesday after not playing in Week 12 at the Rams, and I like Goedert as a must-start Fantasy tight end if Smith is out again in Week 13 at Baltimore.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Mild production off four receptions
Rotowire
Goedert caught four of five targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 37-20 victory over the Rams.
Goedert finished second in targets and receptions in a run-heavy game plan 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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Sleepers (Start/Sit)
Rotowire
Goedert had a solid game in Week 11 against Washington with five catches for 61 yards on five targets, and he has now scored at least 10.5 PPR points in four healthy games in a row. He has a great matchup in Week 12 at the Rams, who are No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends. Seven tight ends have scored at least 8.5 PPR points against the Rams this season, and Goedert should be considered a top-10 Fantasy option in all leagues for Week 12.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Productive outing in win
Rotowire
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.
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 managed 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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Set to play Thursday
Rotowire
Goedert (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday and doesn't have a designation for Thursday's game versus the Commanders.
Goedert opened Week 11 prep listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report due to an ankle issue before being deemed a limited participant at Tuesday's walkthrough. With an uncapped session under his belt Wednesday, he'll be on the field Thursday against a Washington defense that has conceded the third-most receiving touchdowns (five) to opposing tight ends in 10 contests this season.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Limited on practice estimate
Rotowire
The Eagles listed Goedert (ankle) as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
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 signs of the hamstring injury that had sidelined him. Even though Goedert is now being listed with a new injury, the expectation is that he will play Thursday against the Commanders.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Nabs touchdown Sunday
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) had two receptions on three targets for 25 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-6 win over Dallas.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Listed as full participant
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report and suggested afterward that he plans to play Sunday at Dallas, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
Goedert participated in practice for the first tim since injuring his hamstring Week 6, with his absence opening the door for fellow Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra to play at least 90 percent of snaps 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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Out another week
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Remains sidelined for practice
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
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 as the Eagles' primary pass-catching tight end in Goedert's absence and would be headed for another start if Goedert can't play Week 9.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Ruled out for Week 8
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest at Cincinnati.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Misses another practice
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Out this week
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.
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.

Goedert (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Ruled out for remainder of Week 6
Rotowire
Goedert (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's matchup against Cleveland, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Not spotted at practice
Rotowire
Goedert is not participating in the open portion of Wednesday's walk-through practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Goedert is catching passes off to the side Wednesday, while A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) are both sitting out the session entirely. The 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 be of critical importance Sunday versus Tampa Bay if either or both of Brown and Smith can't go. The Eagles will release their first Week 4 practice report later Wednesday, when it will be known why Goedert was contained to working out off to the side.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Career-best day in win
Rotowire
Goedert brought in 10 of 11 targets for 170 yards in the Eagles' 15-12 win over the Saints on Sunday.
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.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)
Rotowire
I was excited for Goedert in Week 2 against Atlanta with A.J. Brown (hamstring) out, but he was a disappointment with three catches for 38 yards on four targets. Greg Calcaterra nearly matched Goedert's production against the Falcons with two catches for 19 yards on two targets, and Goedert has to prove himself to Fantasy managers at this point before he's considered a must-start option. He's a low-end starter at best in Week 3 at New Orleans even with Brown likely out again.
