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.
