The Philadelphia Eagles activated tight end Dallas Goedert off of injured reserve Saturday ahead of the team’s regular-season finale against the visiting New York Giants.

Goedert, who turned 30 on Friday, has not played since suffering a knee injury in Philadelphia’s 24-19 win at Baltimore on Dec. 1. He was a full participant in practice this week and will return after missing the Eagles’ last four games.

The seventh-year veteran is third on the team in catches (38) and receiving yards (441) and has hauled in two touchdowns in nine games.

Goedert’s return will give him some needed reps ahead of Philadelphia’s home playoff game next weekend. The Eagles (13-3) are locked as the No. 2 seed in the NFC and will rest multiple starters against New York on Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles are placing tight end Dallas Goedert on injured reserve due to a knee injury, meaning he will miss at least four games, NFL Network reported Saturday.

The goal is for Goedert to be ready to play in the postseason.

Goedert, 29, already was ruled out for the Eagles (10-2) against the visiting Carolina Panthers (3-9) on Sunday. NFC East-leading Philadelphia has five regular-season games remaining.

He missed three games earlier this season with a hamstring injury, then hurt his knee in the 24-19 victory over the host Baltimore Ravens last Sunday.

Goedert started all nine games he has played this season and totaled 38 receptions on 46 targets for 441 yards and two touchdowns.

The Eagles selected Goedert in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He has 345 receptions for 4,030 yards and 24 TDs in 92 career games (75 starts).

The team’s depth chart at tight end lists Grant Calcaterra and veteran C.J. Uzomah, who was signed from the practice squad to the active roster on Wednesday. Philadelphia also is expected to sign rookie E.J. Jenkins from the practice squad to the active roster, NFL Network reported.

Calcaterra, who turned 26 on Wednesday, has 17 catches on 20 targets for 216 yards in 12 games (eight starts).

Uzomah, 31, has appeared in three games in his first season in Philadelphia. He has 192 catches for 1,881 yards and 16 TDs in 109 career games (82 starts).

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.

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.
