Dallas Goedert Suffers Hamstring Injury in Week 6 Game Against Browns

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was forced to leave the team’s Week 6 game against the Cleveland Browns due to a hamstring injury. The incident occurred early in the game, prompting Goedert to head to the locker room after a visit to the medical tent.

Goedert, who has been a key target for the Eagles, was facing a tough matchup against the Browns’ defense, which has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends through the first five weeks of the season. Despite this challenging matchup, Goedert remained a top 12 fantasy option at his position, though his injury may alter these expectations.

Prior to the injury, Goedert had seen an increase in his pass-catching role this season, averaging 6.1 adjusted catches per game, a significant boost from last season’s 4.3 rate. However, with the return of wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith from their respective injuries, Goedert’s target share was expected to decrease.

The status of Goedert’s injury and his potential to return to the game were listed as questionable at the time of the report.
