Dallas Goedert Injury Outlook

Dallas Goedert (hamstring) ruled out
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 6 with a hamstring injury.

Goedert’s day will end without a reception, as he was targeted once prior to his injury. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Week 7.

Waiver Wire Replacements to Target

TIGHT ENDS

Written by Derek Brown

Zach Ertz (WAS): 25% rostered

  • Next Opponents: CAR, CHI, @NYG
  • True value: $3
  • Desperate Need: $5
  • Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Ertz has been a consistent TE streaming target this season. He’s produced for the fantasy GMs who have relied upon him in a pinch. Ertz has at least 8.8 PPR points in 50% of his games this season. He’s also flashed a ceiling, with at least 60 receiving yards twice this season. He hasn’t scored a touchdown yet this year, so he’s honestly due at this point. Ertz could break the scoreless streak this week and flirt with TE1 status this week against a Carolina pass defense that has allowed the 10th-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends.

Cade Otton (TB): 36% rostered

  • Next Opponents: BAL, ATL, @KC
  • True value: $3
  • Desperate Need: $5
  • Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Otton has stepped up as the No. 3 option in the Bucs passing attack since Week 3. Across his last four games, He’s had at least 44 receiving yards or a score in each game. Since Week 3, Otton has averaged 6.7 targets as a trusted weapon for Baker Mayfield. And Mayfield should look Otton’s way early and often in Week 7 against a Baltimore secondary that has allowed the second-most receiving yards and the eighth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends.

Hunter Henry (NE): 26% rostered

  • Next Opponents: @JAX, NYJ, @TEN
  • True value: $1
  • Desperate Need: $2
  • Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Henry walked away from Week 6 with a solid stat line in Drake Maye‘s first start, earning a 15.1% target share and finishing with 41 receiving yards and a score. Henry has been a central figure in the New England passing attack at various points of the season, and that could happen again in Week 7. The Jaguars are fresh off a week in which they let Cole Kmet rumble for 70 yards and two scores. I’m not saying Henry will reproduce a stat line like that, but if he copied and pasted his Week 6 box score in Week 7, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Taysom Hill (NO): 33% rostered

  • Next Opponents: DEN, @LAC, @CAR
  • True value: $1
  • Desperate Need: $2
  • Budget-minded: $-

Analysis: Hill could be back this week after dealing with fractured ribs. The last time we saw Hill, he rushed for 24 yards and two scores against the Falcons in Week 4. Now, he gets to face his former head coach in the Big Easy. If Hill returns for Week 7, don’t be surprised if the team leans on him in his usual Swiss Army knife role to help their rookie quarterback, Spencer Rattler.

Grant Calcaterra (PHI): 0% rostered

  • Next Opponents: @NYG, @CIN, JAX
  • True value: $1
  • Desperate Need: $2
  • Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Dallas Goedert left last week’s game with a hamstring injury. Once Goedert was out, Calcaterra was the Eagles’ full-time tight end, playing 91% of the snaps with a 16% target share. He was efficient with his four targets, producing 67 receiving yards (2.79 yards per route run). Calcaterra could only offer one week of streaming ability, but in Philly’s consolidated passing attack, it could be nice. The Giants rank 15th in receiving yards per game and 17th in yards per reception allowed to tight ends.
