Dallas Goedert May Hit Injured Reserve With Fractured Forearm

Dallas Goedert May Hit Injured Reserve With Fractured Forearm

one year ago

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) suffered a fractured forearm in Week 9 and will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine if there is any further damage. Goedert is set to miss time and is an injured reserve candidate, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Goedert went down during the third quarter of Sunday's eventual 28-23 win over the division-rival Dallas Cowboys while he was stiff-arming his way to extra yardage on a catch-and-run. The Eagles have a Week 10 bye on tap but losing their 28-year-old standout tight end for extended time is a significant blow to their high-powered offense. We'll have to wait on Monday's MRI results for a clearer return timetable, but fantasy managers should be planning other arrangements for Week 11's Super Bowl rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs. Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam are some names next in line for Philadelphia behind Goedert, but neither of which are likely to offer immediate streaming viability.
