Over the last three years, he has suffered from injuries, missing 11 games in total. The Eagles might select his replacement in the offseason.
The Eagles will replace Goedert’s output with a number of players for the rest of the regular season.
According to NFL Network, Philadelphia signed tight end E.J. Jenkins from the practice squad on Saturday. After participating in three games this season, Jenkins’ elevations ran out.
This week, the Eagles added tight end C.J. Uzomahoff to their practice squad.
Jenkins, Uzomah, and Grant Calcaterra, a third-year tight end, might all have a significant influence.
This season, Calcaterra has started three games (Weeks 7-9) in Goedert’s place. He finished with nine catches for 93 yards during that time.
Calcaterra will be the Eagles’ main pass receiver. Although he will be utilized as a blocker, Uzomah won’t be given as many targets.
On Wednesday, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni informed reporters that Uzomah had made a significant block in the fourth quarter against Baltimore.
After 13 weeks, Goedert has 38 catches for 441 yards and two touchdowns.
