Dallas Goedert's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert will go on the road to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first round of the NFL playoffs. The 28-year-old was active last week but was on the field for less than 40% of the snaps. After A.J. Brown (knee) left due to injury, Goedert followed suit in an effort to conserve one of the team's top receivers. He could be needed in a big way on Monday, as Brown has yet to return to practice. Tampa Bay struggled mightily to stop opposing tight ends this past regular season, as they gave up the third-most fantasy points to the position. Goedert caught five of seven targets for 41 yards against them in their first meeting back in Week 3 but could see an even higher target share if Brown is ruled out. Goedert has been hit or miss this year, but he will be a popular DFS option during the first round of the playoffs.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught one of three targets for a four-yard gain during the team's 10-27 loss to the New York Giants. The Eagles' offense was out of sync all game without DeVonta Smith (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (illness) but got even worse once A.J. Brown (knee) went down early in the contest. The natural thought would be to throw the ball to the next most talented receiver, but with Jalen Hurts (finger) being pulled once the game was out of reach, the 28-year-old was barely involved the rest of the game. Goedert could be a big part of the offense next week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with the status of Brown and Smith currently unknown. He will be a top play in daily fantasy formats during Wild Card weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert will go on the road to take on the New York Giants in Week 18. The 28-year-old has averaged seven targets per game since returning from a forearm injury and now should see a target bump with No. 2 wide receiver DeVonta Smith (ankle) out for the regular season finale. Goedert has already had a solid game against the Giants this season, catching seven of nine targets for 71 yards against them in Week 16. No other Eagles receiver has stepped up and been a consistent force this season outside of Smith, Goedert, and A.J. Brown, so expect Philadelphia to force-feed their top two options with one now missing. Goedert should be considered a top-five option in Week 18.
