Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Colston Loveland

Friday, October 24, 10:57 PM

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.

Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland is in line for a major opportunity in Week 8. Through five games, Loveland has managed just eight receptions for 78 yards, leaving fantasy managers underwhelmed. However, with starter Cole Kmet (back) ruled out, the rookie is expected to take on a full-time role for the first time this season. Kmet has consistently played over 80% of the snaps, while Loveland has hovered around 47%, but that should spike this week. The Bears face the Baltimore Ravens, who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. This matchup gives Loveland a real chance to make an impact, as he profiles as a low-end TE1 in his first game as Chicago's lead tight end.
