Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday, according to the team. Calcaterra was a DNP for Wednesday's practice after injuring his ankle in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. His return to practice on Thursday is a good sign that he'll have a chance to suit up for the Wild-Card playoff tilt this Sunday against the visiting San Francisco 49ers. The 27-year-old caught his only touchdown of the year in the regular-season finale with Dallas Goedert (knee) being rested, but he's expected to return to a depth role if he's active this weekend, with Goedert expected to return. As long as Goedert is active, Calcaterra is not a realistic starting fantasy option for playoff formats.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle) could be in danger of missing Wild-Card weekend and Sunday's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers after missing Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury. Calcaterra saw the field a bit more in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Washington Commanders on Sunday, with Dallas Goedert (knee) being rested, and he caught two of his three targets for a season-high 21 yards and his only touchdown of the year. The 27-year-old was injured in the season finale, though, and he'll need to get back on the practice field over the next two days if he wants to be active for the playoff opener as the Eagles look to defend their title. With Goedert most likely returning this weekend, Calcaterra won't be in play as a TE option in fantasy playoff leagues.
Jan 7, 2026 6:21 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle, knee) is considered questionable to return for Sunday's Week 18 matchup versus the Washington Commanders. Calcaterra appeared to have suffered multiple injuries while being tackled in the third quarter. Given the Eagles are playing their backups, Calcaterra is unlikely to return in basically a meaningless game for Philly. Before exiting, Calcaterra hauled in two of his three targets for 21 yards and a touchdown. If he doesn't return, Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be in line for more snaps during the second half of this game, with Dallas Goedert (knee) inactive in this game.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra has been a meaningful part of the offense this season, playing on 47.4% of offensive snaps in six games. Calcaterra missed Philadelphia's Week 6 matchup in Minnesota with an oblique injury, but has suited up for every other game as the team's No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert. The 26-year-old has mostly served as a blocking tight end and has only caught four of his six targets for 40 yards this season, but he has proven capable of scaling up a little bit when Goedert misses time. In the seven games that Goedert missed last season, Calcaterra caught 14 of 15 targets for 165 yards and a touchdown. He'd be in TE2 territory if Goedert were to miss any games this season.
Oct 29, 2025 1:11 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (oblique) won't play in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. The 26-year-old suffered an oblique injury during the Week 5 loss to the Denver Broncos and wasn't available for the Thursday night divisional clash with the New York Giants. He didn't practice all week, so it's unknown how close he is to returning. However, Calcaterra hasn't been productive this season, catching only four passes for 40 yards, making him irrelevant for fantasy managers. With Dallas Goedert available, that likely would have remained the case.
Oct 18, 2025 7:50 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (oblique) missed another practice on Wednesday and has officially been ruled out for Week 6 on Thursday Night Football against the division-rival New York Giants. Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the loss in Week 5 to the Denver Broncos and will miss at least one game as a result. The good news is that the 26-year-old will have extra time to recover before the team's Week 7 game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Oct. 19. When healthy, Calcaterra isn't really relevant as the No. 2 TE in Philly behind Dallas Goedert. He has four catches for 40 yards and no touchdowns in five games in 2025 after a career-best year in 2024 in which he posted a 24-298-1 line on 30 targets in 17 regular-season games. Expect Kylen Granson to back up Goedert on Thursday night.
Oct 8, 2025 3:37 PM EST
The Philadelphia Eagles held a walkthrough practice on Tuesday, so their injury report was an estimation, according to Martin Frank of the Delaware News Journal. With that said, tight end Grant Calcaterra (oblique) was listed as a non-participant for the second straight day this week. It's looking unlikely that Calcaterra will be able to suit up on a short week on Thursday night against the division-rival New York Giants after he injured his oblique in the Week 5 loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday. If Calcaterra is ruled out for Week 6 on Thursday, Kylen Granson will be bumped up to the TE2 role behind starter Dallas Goedert. Calcaterra was unable to take advantage of Goedert missing a game earlier this year, and he has only four catches on six targets for 40 yards in five games played in 2025. If Calcaterra is inactive on Thursday, his next chance to play would be in Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings.
Oct 7, 2025 7:06 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (oblique) exited during the first half of Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Denver Broncos. He was initially listed as questionable but has since been downgraded to out. At the time of his departure, he had two receptions for 18 yards. Kylen Granson will step up as the Eagles' No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert.
Oct 5, 2025 3:18 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (oblique) is questionable to return to his team's Week 5 matchup against the Denver Broncos due to an oblique injury. Calcaterra recorded two catches for 18 yards on two targets before getting injured. If Calcaterra is unable to return, Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert could see an uptick in playing time for the remainder of Week 5.
Oct 5, 2025 2:20 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra faces the New York Giants in Week 18 and his role will likely be limited but unknown to what extent. With Dallas Goedert (knee) having his 21-day practice window opening this week, there's a chance he plays and sees a few snaps to shake off rust before the playoffs. Additionally, backup C.J. Uzomah (abdominal) was placed on IR, so that now adds E.J. Jenkins to the mix, who could very well see significant playing time. Calcaterra has stepped in admirably during Goedert's absence but has yet to carve out a reliable role in the offense. While the Giants' defense has allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to tight ends this season, the uncertainty surrounding Calcaterra's workload makes him a risky fantasy option in Week 18.
Jan 4, 2025 9:53 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra recorded one reception on two targets for 34 yards in the team's dominant 41-7 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Calcaterra flashed his ability with a big gain, but his opportunities remain limited in an offense heavily focused on wide receivers DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown. With the receivers commanding the majority of targets, Calcaterra remains a lower option in the passing game and a tough sell as a consistent fantasy contributor. The Eagles wrap up their regular season in Week 18 against the New York Giants, and Calcaterra's role is unlikely to expand significantly.
Dec 29, 2024 9:30 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra has struggled to make an impact in recent weeks and remains off the fantasy radar as the team prepares to host the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17. Calcaterra hasn't surpassed three receptions or 22 receiving yards in any of his last three starts and failed to draw a single target against Washington in Week 16. While Calcaterra has been on the field plenty, logging over 88% of the snaps and running 92 routes over the last three games, his involvement in the passing game has been nearly nonexistent. With Kenny Pickett under center and the Eagles opting to lean on their star receivers, Calcaterra offers little upside. Even with Dallas's struggles in red-zone defense, he remains a firm sit and is not a viable streaming option for Week 17.
Dec 28, 2024 10:47 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra was not targeted in his team's 36-33 loss to the Washington Commanders. It was a weird day for the Eagles in the upset loss. Quarterback Jalen Hurts (concussion) was forced from the contest early, leaving Kenny Pickett (ribs) manning the helm for the team. Pickett would attempt just 24 passes while running back Saquon Barkley chewed up 29 carries en route to another monster performance. Aside from wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, no other Philadelphia pass-catcher would garner more than a single target. It's a letdown for Calcaterra in an exploitable matchup, but the outlook of Philly's skill players all took a hit with the entrance of Pickett. The 26-year-old will get a slightly stiffer test next Sunday in a rematch with the visiting Dallas Cowboys. His fantasy outlook will hinge on who is calling signals for the Eagles.
Dec 22, 2024 9:18 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will look to contribute against the Washington Commanders in Week 16. Despite starting in place of the injured Dallas Goedert (knee), Calcaterra caught just one pass for 22 yards in the Eagles' 27-13 win over the Steelers. His involvement has been limited, with only two red-zone targets and one touchdown in five starts this season. The Commanders' defense has allowed the fifth-most receiving touchdowns per game to tight ends but ranks seventh in fewest receiving yards allowed to the position. This makes Calcaterra a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option heading into the matchup. Managers should consider more reliable options unless chasing upside in deeper leagues.
Dec 20, 2024 11:19 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught his lone target for 22 yards in the team's 27-13 win over the Steelers. Despite his expanded role due to Dallas Goedert (knee) being placed on IR, Calcaterra has only seen four targets across two games as the team's primary tight end. With DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown earning the majority of targets, Calcaterra is unlikely to see a significant uptick in volume. As such, he remains off the fantasy radar heading into the Eagles' Week 16 road matchup against the Washington Commanders.
Dec 16, 2024 10:52 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will aim to build on his first NFL touchdown as the team prepares to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15. Filling in for the injured Dallas Goedert (knee), Calcaterra recorded three catches for 16 yards and a touchdown in last week's win over the Panthers. The Steelers present a challenging matchup, allowing just 218.6 passing yards per game and only 14 passing touchdowns this season, tied for the fifth-fewest in the league. While Calcaterra has shown flashes, finishing as a top-10 PPR tight end three times in five starts, his upside is limited by just one touchdown and a single red-zone target in that span. Pittsburgh has been tough against tight ends, giving up the eighth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position over the last five weeks. Calcaterra profiles as a low-end streaming option in Week 15.
Dec 13, 2024 7:42 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra had three catches for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers. With Dallas Goedert (knee) on the Injured Reserve list, Calcaterra took over as the team's starting tight end. While he only had three grabs, he at least found the end zone for the first time of his career. With the 26-year-old expected to remain atop the depth chart, he has streaming value for the Week 15 showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dec 8, 2024 6:29 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra is in line for more work in Sunday's matchup versus Carolina. With Dallas Goedert (knee) ruled out, Calcaterra will be tasked with filling the void at the tight end spot. He started a few games already this season while Goedert was on the shelf. Yet, the 26-year-old didn't do much and currently has only 17 receptions for 216 yards. He also doesn't have a touchdown. Fortunately, Calcaterra wIll go up against a Panthers defense that has allowed a league-worst nine touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers in any format.
Dec 7, 2024 12:53 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught all five of his targets for 30 yards during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The third-year tight end was involved early in the game having four grabs before halftime, but did little after. Next week will mark the fourth since starter Dallas Goedert (hamstring) was injured against Cleveland and will be his first real shot at making a return to the field. Fantasy managers will need to monitor practice reports during the week, but Calcaterra may move back to his role as the No. 2 option if Goedert is able to put in any practice time this week.
Nov 4, 2024 9:13 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will take on the 2-6 Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. The 25-year-old got involved in last week's win over the Bengals, nabbing all three of his targets for 58 yards. He did well gaining big chunks and faces a Jaguars defense that is struggling to stop all positions at the moment. Jacksonville allows the 15th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends and will have their hands full guarding A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. This may be the last week that Calcaterra is starting in place of Dallas Goedert (hamstring) so fantasy managers in need have a chance to stream him in a decent Week 9 matchup.
