Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Activated from IR ahead of MNF
Rotowire
The Eagles activated Calcaterra (back) from injured reserve Monday.
Calcaterra has been cleared to play Monday night against Dallas, giving Philly another capable tight end behind Dallas Goedert. It's unclear how the playing time will shake out between blocker Johnny Mundt, catch-first rookie Eli Stowers and Calcaterra, but the Eagles could lean into the tight end-heavy sets with DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) both ruled out.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Deemed questionable for MNF
Rotowire
Calcaterra, who is on injured reserve due to a back injury, is questionable to suit up Monday versus Dallas.
Calcaterra has yet to play this season because of a back injury he suffered during the preseason. Philadelphia opened his 21-day practice window Oct. 14, and the tight end was able to practice in full all three days this week. Since Calcaterra is on IR, he'd need to be activated to the 53-man roster Sunday in order to be eligible to play Monday.

Rotowire
The Eagles downgraded Calcaterra (back) to out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Calcaterra remains on injured reserve, though his 21-day practice window was opened earlier in the week. He's nearing a return, though his role is unclear behind Dallas Goedert and potentially even block-first TE Johnny Mundt.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Tagged as questionable for Week 6
Rotowire
Calcaterra (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
The Eagles could significantly bolster their depth at tight end if both Calcaterra and rookie second-rounder Eli Stowers (quadriceps) are activated from injured reserve. If he's cleared to make his 2026 debut Sunday, then Calcaterra would likely slide into the TE2 role behind Dallas Goedert and ahead of Johnny Mundt.

Rotowire
The Eagles opened the 21-day practice window for Calcaterra (back) on Wednesday.
Calcaterra has yet to play this season. He will have 21 days to be added to the 53-man roster. If not, Calcaterra will miss the remainder of the 2026 campaign.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Calcatarra (back) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
It is unclear how long Calcatarra's back issue will keep him sidelined. The depth tight end re-signed with the Eagles in March, but has been pushed down the depth chart due to the drafting of second-round rookie Eli Stowers. Calcatarra likely has a spot on the 53-man roster locked up, and the reliable depth option merely needs to recover from the issue and continue displaying his versatility to the team.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Ready for Sunday
Rotowire
Calcaterra (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's wild-card round matchup with the 49ers.
Calcaterra was able to upgrade to a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited Thursday and a non-participant Wednesday. The tight end is set to suit up for Sunday's wild-card contest as the No. 2 option behind Dallas Goedert.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Not practicing
Rotowire
Calcaterra (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
Calcaterra made an early exit from Sunday's 24-17 loss to Washington on account of knee and ankle injuries. He's now listed with just an ankle injury, but it's not enough to keep him out of practice, whereas starting tight end Dallas Goedert (knee) was a limited participant Wednesday. Goedert didn't practice or play last week, but he now appears on track to return for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Exits game with multiple injuries
Rotowire
Calcaterra (ankle/knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Commanders.
Calcaterra appeared to sustain the injuries while being tackled by Jeremy Reaves in the third quarter, and the former was taken to the locker room to be evaluated by medical staff. Dallas Goedert (knee) is inactive, so Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu are in line for more offensive snaps at tight end for as long as Calcaterra is out of the game.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Held without target Monday
Rotowire
Calcaterra wasn't targeted while playing 15 of the Eagles' 71 snaps on offense in Monday's 22-19 overtime loss to the Chargers.
Calcaterra continued to serve mainly as a blocker on offense for the Eagles; he didn't run a route on any of his 15 snaps in Week 14. Even with top tight end Dallas Goedert missing a game back in Week 2, Calcaterra hasn't made much of a splash in fantasy at any point this season. He's totaled five receptions for 48 yards and no touchdowns on eight targets through 11 appearances.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: No targets Sunday
Rotowire
Calcaterra went without a target while playing 34 of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Though he was on the field for nearly half of the Eagles' snaps, Calcaterra ran just three routes on the night. So long as top tight end Dallas Goedert stays healthy, Calcaterra looks like he'll be limited mostly to a blocking role on offense.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: No targets in Week 8 return
Rotowire
Calcaterra went without a target while playing 36 of the Eagles' 59 snaps on offense in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants.
Though he played just one fewer snap than top tight end Dallas Goedert, Calcaterra -- who had missed the previous two games while recovering from a concussion -- was substantially less involved in the passing game. Goedert ran 21 routes to Calcaterra's eight and capitalized on those opportunities, finishing with a 3-28-2 receiving line on three targets. Calcaterra will continue to remain an infrequent target of quarterback Jalen Hurts so long as Goedert is available.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Logs limited practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Calcaterra (oblique) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Calcaterra has sat out Philadelphia's last two games due to an oblique issue he picked up in Week 5 versus the Broncos, but it now appears he could be on track to suit up again soon. He'll get two more chances to upgrade to a full practice before the Eagles release their final practice report of the week Friday.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Considered unavailable Monday
Rotowire
Calcaterra (oblique) was considered to be a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.
Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the first quarter of the team's 21-17 loss to the Broncos in Week 5, ultimately remaining sidelined for the rest of the day. The tight end will have two more chances to participate in some capacity at practice before Thursday's matchup with the Giants.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Exits game with oblique injury
Rotowire
Calcaterra is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver due to an oblique injury.
Calcaterra went to the locker room in the first quarter after sustaining an oblique injury, and he'll undergo further tests to determine whether he can return. Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu will see more snaps at tight end behind starter Dallas Goedert for as long as Calcaterra is out of the game.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Good to go against Denver
Rotowire
Calcaterra (illness) was a full participant in Friday's practice and carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Calcaterra popped up on Thursday's injury report due to an illness, but the fourth-year tight end has been cleared to play in Week 5. With Dallas Goedert (knee) also given the green light to play Sunday, Calcaterra will slot in as the Eagles' TE2 while Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu provide additional depth at the position.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Under the weather
Rotowire
Calcaterra (illness) did not participate in Thursday's practice.
The illness appears to be new, as Calcaterra was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. How he recovers over the coming days will determine whether he will play in Sunday's home game against the Broncos. Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be in line to serve as the Eagles' top two tight ends if Calcaterra and Dallas Goedert (knee) were unable to play.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: No targets in Week 3
Rotowire
Calcaterra was not targeted a single time in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.
Calcaterra caught just one pass as the Eagles' top tight end in Week 2, but his role got even smaller due to Dallas Goedert being back in action in Week 3. Calcaterra barely even saw the field, playing just 12 offensive snaps as the Eagles spent most of the game in one tight-end sets while trailing for most of the game.

Eagles' Grant Calcaterra: Held to one catch as top tight end
Rotowire
Calcaterra served as the Eagles' No. 1 tight end Sunday against the Chiefs due to Dallas Goedert's knee injury but finished with just one catch for six yards.
Calcaterra outsnapped fellow tight end Kyle Granson 53-34, leaving little doubt that he remains Goedert's top deputy. Goedert has missed an average of five games per season since 2022, so that role should continue to lead to a handful of starts for Calcaterra, but those starts won't necessarily lead to many targets. He was targeted just twice in Week 2.
