Goedert (knee) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Cowboys.
After opening the week with two missed practices, the veteran tight end returned to full work Saturday, which was enough for him to fade an injury tag for Monday night's contest. Both DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) have been ruled out, so Goedert and rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon should command the majority of targets from quarterback Tanner McKee. Goedert has a 12-99-0 receiving line on 17 targets over his last two games.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Optimistic about knee injury
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) said he felt good at Saturday's practice after dealing with inflammation earlier in the week, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Goedert was back on the practice field Saturday after missing the first two sessions of Week 7 prep while dealing with inflammation in his knee. The Eagles still need to submit their injury designations for Monday's game against the Cowboys, but Goedert noted after Saturday's session that he expects to play, per Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer. The veteran tight end's availability is crucial for Philadelphia, given that both of the team's top wide receivers in DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) did not practice all week.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Back at practice Saturday
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) is on the field for the start of Saturday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Goedert missed the first two practices of Week 7 prep while tending to a knee injury, but he's back on the field and in pads for Saturday's session. The Eagles are also dealing with injuries to DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle), so Goedert -- if active for Monday night's game against the Cowboys -- would operate in an expanded role in the passing game if either or both of the Eagles' top two wide receivers is sidelined.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Sits out Friday's practice
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) was a non-participant at Friday's practice.
Goedert has yet to mix into drills this week due to a knee injury, which could be related to the right MCL sprain that sidelined him in Weeks 3 and 4. In any case, how he's listed on Saturday's practice report will provide a sense of his chances to play Monday against the Cowboys.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Not at Friday's practice
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) was not seen at Friday's portion of practice open to the media, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
With Goedert also having been held out of Thursday's practice, his status will need to be monitored over the weekend ahead of Monday night's game against Dallas. Goedert returned in Week 5 from his MCL injury, and he has 12 catches for 99 yards on 17 targets over the two games since. With back-to-back DNPs to start Week 7 prep, Goedert likely needs to get some work in Saturday in order to play.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: TEs to start
Rotowire
Goedert returned in Week 5 against Jacksonville from a two-game absence due to a knee injury, and he had six catches for 38 yards on nine targets. DeVonta Smith (hamstring) could remain out again in Week 6 against Carolina, which would make Goedert the No. 1 option in the passing game for Jalen Hurts against the Panthers. Carolina is No. 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends, and Harold Fannin Jr. and Sam LaPorta combined for 15 catches for 135 yards and three touchdowns against the Panthers in their past two games. Goedert has top-10 upside in all leagues in Week 6.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Ready to return in Week 5
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Jacksonville.
After missing Weeks 3 and 4 due to a sprained MCL in his right knee, Goedert got back on the practice field this week, logging limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before a full practice Friday gave him the all clear to play again. With both WR DeVonta Smith and RB Saquon Barkley sidelined this weekend due to respective hamstring injuries, Goedert figures to be a featured part of the Eagles' passing attack.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Remains limited at practice
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) was limited at practice Thursday.
Goedert maintained his activity level from Wednesday as he looks to put a sprained MCL in his right knee further in the rearview mirror. Friday's practice report will reveal his odds to return to action Sunday in Jacksonville, but if he's inhibited or sidelined again this weekend, Johnny Mundt, E.J. Jenkins and practice-squad member Zach Ertz again will man tight end for the Eagles.
Goedert (knee) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday.
Goedert has missed the last two contests due to a sprained MCL in his right knee, but his return to drills this week puts game action back on the table for the ninth-year tight end. He likely will need to string together consecutive days of on-field work to give the Eagles peace of mind and clear him to play Sunday versus the Jaguars in London. For the time being, though, Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins are the healthy TE options on the active roster, and the team can still use one more elevation on Zach Ertz to reinforce the position

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Back at practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) is practicing Wednesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
With Goedert returning to the field after recently being ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, this marks his first visible step forward in his recovery from a sprained MCL in his right knee. His participation Wednesday puts the Eagles tight end back on the radar for Week 5, though his practice level and any game designation later in the week will still determine his availability.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Ruled out for Week 4
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.
With Goedert set to miss another game while recovering from the sprained MCL in his right knee and Devonta Smith set to miss with a hamstring injury, Philadelphia will need to lean heavily on Dontayvion Wicks and first-round rookie Makai Lemon to key the passing game. Goedert has yet to practice since suffering his injury in Week 2 against the Titans and remains week-to-week.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Another DNP on Thursday
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) officially didn't practice Thursday.
Goedert has yet to practice since emerging from Week 2 with an MCL sprain in his right knee, and Friday's injury report may seal his fate for a second straight game after sitting out Monday's loss at Chicago. During that contest, the breakdown of offensive snaps among the Eagles' active tight ends was Johnny Mundt's 26 (of 50), followed by Zach Ertz's 19 and E.J. Jenkins' 13.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Not spotted at Thursday's practice
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) isn't present for the start of practice Thursday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Goedert looks to be on his way to a second consecutive practice absence to kick off Week 4 prep. After sitting out Monday's loss to the Bears due to a sprained MCL in his right knee, Goedert is fighting an uphill battle to return Sunday against the Rams. If Goedert remains sidelined, Zach Ertz would have a chance to step up as the top pass catcher in an Eagles tight end room that was paced in snaps by Johnny Mundt on Monday.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Sits out walkthrough
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) didn't take part in Wednesday's walkthrough.
Goedert already has missed one game due to an MCL sprain in his right knee and likely will continue to trend toward absences in future weeks until he returns to the practice field in some capacity. In Monday's loss at Chicago, Johnny Mundt started in place of Goedert and logged 26 of 50 offensive snaps, which was followed by Zach Ertz's 19 and E.J. Jenkins' 13. A similar breakdown of TE reps is likely between the trio until Goedert is back in the lineup.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Won't play Monday
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bears.
Goedert was unable to practice all week due to an MCL sprain that he sustained during the Eagles' Week 2 win over the Titans. Zach Ertz was signed to the Eagles' practice squad Tuesday, and he figures to be elevated to the active roster for Monday's game and provide depth at tight end behind Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins. Goedert's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Rams on Sunday, Oct. 4, though he should be considered week-to-week.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: No practice again Friday
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) didn't practice Friday.
Goedert has yet to log any on-field work since emerging from a Week 2 win in Tennessee with an apparent MCL sprain, which typically requires multiple weeks to recover from. The Eagles haven't officially ruled him out for Monday's game at Chicago, but Saturday's injury report should provide clarity on his status for at least Week 3. In Goedert's likely absence, Johnny Mundt, E.J. Jenkins and practice-squad member Zach Ertz will be the candidates to fill in at tight end.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Set for tests on knee injury
Rotowire
Goedert (knee) is slated to undergo an MRI on Monday after exiting Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Goedert played 19 snaps on offense and recorded a four-year reception on two targets before sustaining the knee injury in the second quarter. Though the Eagles deemed Goedert questionable to return, he never ended up checking back into the game and now is set to undergo further testing as the team looks to determine the severity of his injury. If the knee issue keeps Goedert from suiting up in the Eagles' Week 3 matchup with the Bears next Monday, Johnny Mundt (2-8-0 receiving line, 64 percent snap share Week 2) would be the next man up at tight end.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Iffy to return due to knee injury
Rotowire
Goedert is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans due to a knee injury.
Goedert reeled in one of two targets for a four-yard gain before leaving the game in the first half after he appeared to get upended while run blocking, per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. According to McLane, Goedert checked into the medical tent to be evaluated further, but the Eagles could examine him more thoroughly in the locker room before deciding whether he's able to return to the contest. The Eagles will be left with Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins as their options at tight end if Goedert ends up sitting out for the rest of the game.

Eagles' Dallas Goedert: TEs to start
Rotowire
Goedert has faced Washington nine times since 2020, and he has scored at least 11.1 PPR points in six of those meetings, including four touchdowns. He should continue to beat up on the Commanders in Week 1. The Eagles should lean on Goedert in their first game without A.J. Brown, and I like Goedert as a top-10 Fantasy tight end in all leagues.
