Dallas Goedert is a Looming Touchdown Threat Against Vikings

Friday, October 17, 8:26 PM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert cannot be stopped from scoring this season, as he found the end zone for his fourth straight game against the Giants. On top of that, Goedert had his most impressive overall showing yet, racking up nine catches on 11 targets for 110 yards. His next opponent is the Vikings, who are tough on WRs but allow the 13th-most fantasy points to tight ends. In Minnesota's last game, Browns tight end David Njoku led his team in receptions and receiving yards. Goedert has given no reason to doubt his production when it comes to red zone looks, and should be considered a solid TE1 in Week 7.

Brock Bowers Expected Back After Bye

Monday, October 20, 3:00 PM

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers (knee) has missed the last three games as he recovers from the bone bruise and PCL injury he sustained in the season opener, but according to head coach Pete Carroll, he's expected to return to the field following the team's Week 8 bye. The Raiders are coming off one of the worst offensive performances in recent history, managing fewer than 100 total yards in a 31-0 shellacking from the Kansas City Chiefs, so for multiple reasons, the bye week comes at a good time. Bowers caught five of eight targets for 103 yards in Week 1, but was clearly limited in his next three outings, lacking his trademark explosiveness as he played with a knee brace. Rather than risk further injury, the team made the decision to shut him down until he's fully healthy, and he is now in line to play in Week 9 against the Jaguars. While he may need to work himself back into game shape, he should still be inserted right back into starting lineups, as the upside he offers at the position is practically unmatched across the league.
