Rams head to Philadelphia for a key road test with an injury-riddled depth chart. Ahkello Witherspoon is out with a broken clavicle; Steve Avila’s ankle and Braden Fiske’s status linger, Colby Parkinson was limited after missing Sunday; Havenstein and Davante Adams rested. Eagles list Will Shipley out, with Jalen Carter and Dallas Goedert limited. The updates tighten fantasy maps across pass-catchers and blockers, elevating depth players and testing the game plan.

Expect Rams to explore run-heavy drives and quick passes while backups step into bigger roles on both sides. Eagles fans and fantasy managers should watch late-week notes for shifts in target shares and line alignment, since these injury flags can swing Week 3 upside for non-elite options and spark sleeper plays in DFS.

Dallas Goedert has battled injury misfortune against teams tied to his nameplate. In 2023 he fractured a forearm in Week 9 against the Dallas Cowboys and missed three games, including a Chiefs affair at Arrowhead. Less than two years later, a knee sprain in the season opener vs Dallas kept him out the following week in Kansas City, though he traveled with the team and remained hopeful. Now Week 3 vs the Rams looms as he nears a return, practicing in limited fashion with a brace in tow.

The Eagles leaned on Goedert last season as a reliable target, despite a heavy workload and injuries, and they’ll welcome him back if he can contribute in the passing and running games. His presence could unlock Philadelphia’s rhythm as they navigate a cautious early stretch and a defense-heavy opponent slate, with his snap counts and target share under close watch.
