Dallas Goedert Likely To Have Surgery Monday

one year ago

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) is likely to have surgery on Monday after suffering a fractured right forearm in the Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. It's reminiscent of the injury he had last year when he missed five games, so he's a clear candidate to be placed on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. The hope is that Goedert will be out around four weeks after undergoing surgery. It's a crushing blow for the Eagles and for fantasy managers, but with Goedert potentially returning just in time for the start of the fantasy players, he needs to be stashed in an IR spot in all leagues. In the meantime, the Eagles will probably roll with some combination of Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam, but neither of them will be guaranteed to be reliable fantasy streamers moving forward.
