Eagles TE Dallas Goedert ready to return against Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is off the injury report and ready to play Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys.

Goedert (forearm) was a full participant in Friday’s practice, as were fellow tight ends Jack Stoll (knee) and Grant Calcaterra (ankle), defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (groin), cornerback Darius Slay (knee) and linebacker Zach Cunningham (hamstring).

Wide receiver Julio Jones (groin) was the only limited participant as the Eagles (10-2) prepare to face the Cowboys (9-3) in an NFC East showdown in Arlington, Texas.

Goedert has been sidelined since the Eagles’ 28-23 win against Dallas on Nov. 5. He left that game with a fractured forearm that required surgery.

Goedert, 28, has 38 catches for 410 yards and two touchdowns in nine starts this season. He has 31 receptions for 462 yards and three scores in 10 career games against the Cowboys.

Eagles activate TE Dallas Goedert to roster

Tight end Dallas Goedert is in line to suit up for the Philadelphia Eagles’ much-anticipated Christmas Eve battle against the Dallas Cowboys in Arlington, Texas.

The Eagles announced Tuesday that Goedert has been activated to the 53-man roster after being out since mid-November with a shoulder injury.

Goedert, 27, sustained the injury in the Nov. 14 game against the Washington Commanders and was put on IR, meaning he had to miss a minimum of four games. He ultimately missed five as he waited for the glenoid fracture in his shoulder to heal properly.

Prior to his injury, Goedert had 43 catches for 544 yards and three touchdowns in nine starts this season.

Goedert has 236 catches for 2,839 yards and 19 touchdowns in 66 career games (49 starts) since being selected by the Eagles in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Eagles open 21-day practice window for TE Dallas Goedert

The Philadelphia Eagles designated tight end Dallas Goedert to return from injured reserve on Wednesday.

The move opens a 21-day practice window for Goedert, who was placed on IR with an injured shoulder on Nov. 16.

Goedert was injured during Philadelphia’s lone loss of the season — a 32-21 setback to the Washington Commanders on Nov. 14. He sustained the injury late in the fourth quarter after he was yanked down by the facemask and landed awkwardly, resulting in a fumble.

Goedert, 27, has 43 catches for 544 yards and three touchdowns in nine starts this season.

Goedert has 236 catches for 2,839 yards and 19 touchdowns in 66 career games (49 starts) since being selected by the Eagles in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Eagles put TE Dallas Goedert (shoulder) on IR

The Philadelphia Eagles placed starting tight end Dallas Goedert on injured reserve Wednesday with a shoulder injury.

He’ll have to miss at least four games. It is not believed to be a season-ending injury.

The move was one of several the Eagles made Wednesday.

Defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu was also placed on IR with an undisclosed injury. He played in nine games, including a start on Monday against the Washington Commanders. The second-year player has 16 tackles and a sack on the season.

The Eagles signed veteran journeyman Linval Joseph to a one-year contract in hopes of bolstering their run defense.

The Eagles also activated tight end Tyree Jackson from the physically unable to perform list, the final day to do so. He joins Jack Stoll and rookie Grant Calcaterra in the tight end room.

The team opened the 21-day practice window for defensive end Janarius Robinson, who has been on injured reserve since Oct. 15.

Goedert was injured during Monday night’s loss to Washington. Goedert apparently sustained the injury late in the fourth quarter when he was yanked down by the facemask and landed awkwardly, resulting in a fumble. No facemask penalty was called on the play.

Goedert had three catches for 23 yards and a touchdown in the previously unbeaten Eagles’ 32-21 setback against the visiting Commanders.

Goedert, 27, has 43 catches for 544 yards and three touchdowns in nine starts this season. He ranks second in the league in yards and fourth in catches among tight ends.

Goedert has 236 catches for 2,839 yards and 19 TDs in 66 career games (49 starts) in four-plus seasons, all with the Eagles.

Joseph, 34, has yet to play a game in 2022. He played the previous two seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers. The two-time Pro Bowler has 644 tackles and 25 sacks in 171 career games (162 starts) with three teams.

Also Wednesday, the Eagles signed safety Marquise Blair to the practice squad. He takes the spot of wideout Auden Tate, who was released Tuesday.

Eagles CB Avonte Maddox agrees to three-year extension

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Avonte Maddox on Saturday agreed to a three-year contract extension that runs through the 2024 season.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the team, however multiple media outlets reported it was worth $22.5 million and included $13.3 million guaranteed.

The move comes one day after Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert agreed to a four-year contract extension through the 2025 season.

“We put a lot on his plate. And he has a lot to process and think about. And we put him in that spot as a slot nickel corner,” Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon said of Maddox earlier this week. “He wears a lot of hats. He’s in the run game, he’s covering man-to-man. He’s in zone. He’s got a pattern match. He makes a lot of adjustments.

“So, I mean, I like where Avonte is. I like where he’s going. And he’s doing a really good job for us playing winning football in that spot, which you need in that spot.”

Maddox, 25, has recorded a career-high 48 tackles to go along with one interception and a half-sack in 10 games this season.

He has 170 tackles, three interceptions and two sacks in 45 career games (25 starts) since being selected by Philadelphia in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Eagles, TE Dallas Goedert reach 4-year contract agreement

The team announced the agreement but did not release the contract value. NFL Network said the contract is worth $57 million, while ESPN pegged it at $59 million. At either amount, it will put Goedert among the top three tight ends in pay on an average value-per-year basis.

George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers earns an average of $15 million a year, and Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs makes $14.31 million, per Spotrac.

Goedert, 26, was scheduled to become a free agent at the conclusion of the 2021 league year.

The Eagles selected Goedert in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft with the 49th overall draft pick. He has played 51 games (34 starts) for Philadelphia with 166 catches for 1,894 yards with 14 touchdowns.

In nine games (eight starts) this season, Goedert has 29 catches for 429 yards with two touchdowns.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (concussion) limited in practice

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was a limited participant in his return to practice on Thursday.

Goedert did not participate in the walkthrough on Wednesday, three days after sustaining a concussion in Philadelphia’s 30-13 victory over the Denver Broncos.

Goedert, 26, had two receptions for 28 yards before exiting that game for the Eagles (4-6), who host the New Orleans Saints (5-4) on Sunday.

Tight ends Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson would be in line for a larger workload should Goedert be unable to play against the Saints.

Goedert has 29 catches for 429 yards and two touchdowns in nine games this season. He has 166 receptions for 1,894 yards with 14 touchdowns in 51 career games since being selected by Philadelphia in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Eagles’ Lane Johnson, Dallas Goedert to play vs. Raiders

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson and tight end Dallas Goedert will return to play in Sunday’s road game versus the Las Vegas Raiders.

“He had a good week of practice and we’ll be expecting him to play and start at right tackle,” coach Nick Sirianni said Friday of Johnson, who has been sidelined while addressing his mental health.

Johnson, 31, last took the field in the Eagles’ 41-21 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 27.

A three-time Pro Bowl selection, Johnson has started all 102 games in which he has played since joining the Eagles in 2013.

Also on Friday, Sirianni said he looks “forward to Dallas playing a big role this weekend.”

Goedert was activated from the reserve/COVID list on Thursday morning.

“Conditioning-wise, whatever it is, I can be out there the whole game,” Goedert said Friday. “Running out there and practicing today, I felt really good.”

Goedert has 15 catches for 216 yards and two touchdowns in five games this season, raising his four-year career totals with Philadelphia to 152 receptions for 1,681 yards and 14 scores in 47 games.

Philadelphia drafted Goedert in the second round (49th overall) in 2018 out of South Dakota State.

Goedert is expected to receive the majority of the team’s snaps among tight ends after the Eagles traded veteran Zach Ertz to the Arizona Cardinals last Friday.
