The Philadelphia Eagles will face the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding TE Dallas Goedert.
Is Dallas Goedert Playing vs. the Rams?
Goedert was listed on the injury report this week for illness but does not carry an injury designation heading into the game. Barring any last-minute setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.
We’ll continue to monitor the Eagles’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Dallas Goedert in the Divisional Round?
Dallas Goedert’s stiff arm last week against the Packers will be on highlight films for years to come, and while the single play stands out, his earning six targets on just 18 routes is what has my interest.
This is a matchup in which the Eagles should be able to score; that means you could justify going in this direction, but I’m just not joining you. It’s easy to look at him seeing one-third of the targets last week, but should we view that as predictive?
- A.J. Brown had one catch
- DeVonta Smith has an 87.1% catch rate over the past month
- Saquon Barkley had four receiving yards
- Grant Calcaterra posted a 54.4% snap share
With Smith trending up, Calcaterra getting field time, and the Brown/Barkley tandem recording floor performances, last week feels much more like a ceiling than anything we can expect to sustain. Barkley had four more rushes than Jalen Hurts had pass attempts; if you like the Eagles to control this game like they did against the Packers last week, the volume is too risky to have me interested, even after a strong performance.
