Eagles TE Dallas Goedert is expected to miss "a few weeks" with an MCL sprain suffered in the Week 2 win over the Titans, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert suffered a knee injury in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Titans and is officially questionable to return. We'll update his status when we know more. With TE Eli Stowers on IR, Philly is down to TEs Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins.

Eagles TE Eli Stowers continues to struggle in training camp, with The Philly Voice’s Geoff Mosher saying he’s still learning the position and struggling with the game’s physicality. The team drafted Stowers in the second round of the NFL Draft this past April as a potential heir apparent to TE Dallas Goedert. Stowers' receiving ability and athleticism could've gotten him on the field, but it appears he's too far behind to open the season as a contributor.

Eagles WRs DeVonta Smith and Makai Lemon are sidelined on Tuesday with hamstring injuries. There's been nothing to suggest either is serious, but we all know how tricky hamstring injuries can be for skill-position players.

The Philly Voice's Jimmy Kempski doesn't expect Eagles TE Eli Stowers to make a big impact this season. Kempski points out that rookie TEs generally don't post big receiver numbers (although that hasn't necessarily been the case in recent seasons with guys like Sam LaPorta, Brock Bowers, and Harold Fannin). More crucially, Kempski notes that Stowers' blocking deficiencies will challenge his playing time. Kempski lists both Dallas Goedert and Johnny Mundt ahead of Stowers on Philly's depth chart. Mundt won't contribute much as a pass catcher but is a reliable blocker.

The Packers are trading WR Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles in exchange for 2026 fifth- and 2027 sixth-round picks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Philadelphia is also giving Wicks a one-year, $12.5 million extension that keeps him signed through the 2027 season. Wicks has teased fantasy owners with a handful of strong outings over the last four seasons and registered strong marks in advanced metrics like targets per route and yards per route. But he never carved out a consistent role in Green Bay. There's opportunity for him to do so in Philadelphia ... if WR A.J. Brown is traded.

TE Dallas Goedert has agreed to a one-year extension with the Eagles. That keeps him around through 2026 rather than allowing the veteran to hit the open market. The two sides seemed to be working toward this end, with both agreeing twice to delay a contract clause that would have forced an earlier decision to avoid a $20 million cap hit for the coming season.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the Commanders. Philadelphia is expected to rest its key pieces in this game, so we suspect Goedert's knee issue isn't serious. His absence leaves the TE room to Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson.

NBC Sports Philadelphia reports that the Eagles confirmed Wednesday they'll "rest several key starters" in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Commanders. It's not yet clear, though, exactly who that plan affects and how.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw just 15 passes in Sunday's beatdown of the Raiders. But he proved much more efficient than in recent weeks. Hurts completed 12 of those throws (80%) for 175 yards (11.7 yards per attempt) and 3 TDs. He added 39 rushing yards on seven carries.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert snagged a game-high 8 receptions for 78 yards in Monday night's OT loss to the Chargers. His 10 targets trailed only WR A.J. Brown's 13 in a game that included a season-high 40 Philly pass attempts.

The Eagles' offense disappointed once again in Friday's loss to the Bears. But WR A.J. Brown enjoyed a second straight strong effort. He racked up 132 yards and 2 TDs on 10 catches. Brown's 12 targets marked his third straight game with 10+. He has tallied 7+ catches in each of those. WR DeVonta Smith followed with a 5-48 receiving line on eight targets. TE Dallas Goedert was the only other Eagle to catch more than one pass. He posted a 2-27 receiving line on four targets.

The forecast for today's Bears-Eagles game calls for 15-25 mph winds with gusts up to 35 mph. That's enough to impact deep passes and kicks. We're not adjusting any projections, but you could use the weather as a tiebreaker against guys from this game.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (shoulder, chest, illness) missed his second straight practice on Wednesday. We don't have any other details on his injuries, but Smith is seemingly in danger of missing Friday's game vs. the Bears. His absence would be a big boost to WR A.J. Brown and TE Dallas Goedert. We'll see how Smith is listed on Thursday's final injury report.
