Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) does not carry an injury designation on the Friday injury report. Goedert's touchdown streak finally came to an end last week after four straight games of scoring. It was an overall poor showing for Goedert, who had just three targets-his second-lowest in a game this season-amounting to three catches for 18 yards. However, on Sunday he's up against the Giants, who he torched in Week 6 for 110 yards on nine catches in his best performance yet. Now without A.J. Brown, it's fair to assume Goedert is in for another heavy workload against New York. The G-Men give up the 12th-least amount of fantasy points to tight ends this year, but that should be offset by Jalen Hurts' need to rely on a favorite weapon with another forced to the sidelines. Goedert is an enticing TE1 in Week 8.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo (foot) was listed as a limited participant following Wednesday's practice. The 26-year-old has been a steady target for Cameron Ward this season, so his absence would hurt the passing game. Okonkwo has at least four catches in five of eight contests this year, ranking as the overall TE24 in PPR leagues. He should continue to rank as a fringe top-24 fantasy tight end against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9, assuming he's active. Managers should monitor his status over the next two days of practice. If he can't suit up, we would expect more volume for Gunnar Helm, who had 23 yards and a touchdown last Sunday.
Still trying to decide between Goedert and Okonkwo? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Dallas Goedert is projected to score 0.0 points this week while Chig Okonkwo is projected to score 7.5 points.
