Eagles Bring Back Dallas Goedert on a One-Year Deal

Sunday, March 15, 12:39 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed tight end Dallas Goedert to a one-year contract, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. The two sides had been working hard to reach an agreement for the 2026 season, postponing the void date of his previous contract so they could have more time to negotiate. In the end, Goedert returns to Philadelphia for a ninth season. Not only is he the Eagles' top tight end, but he'll continue to be one of Jalen Hurts' favorite targets. The 31-year-old is coming off the best fantasy season of his career, ranking as the overall TE7 in PPR leagues with 60 catches, 591 yards, and 11 touchdowns. He could be headed for some touchdown regression, but he remains a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2026, especially now that we know how much the Eagles wanted to bring him back. It will be interesting to see how the Eagles' offense evolves from here, as it was previously reported that Goedert's and A.J. Brown's futures are interconnected. It has been implied that Philadelphia can only afford to keep one or the other going forward, so the return of Goedert further reinforces speculation that Brown will be traded this offseason.

Isaiah Likely News

Isaiah Likely Expected to be "Featured Piece" in Giants Offense

Tuesday, March 17, 9:05 AM

New tight end Isaiah Likely, who received a three-year, $40 million contract in free agency, is expected to be a "featured piece" in the New York Giants' offense this year, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Duggan adds that the Giants essentially swapped Likely in for receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, "signaling the shift in their offensive approach" under new head coach John Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy. Likely will be paired often with fellow TE Theo Johnson, while Chris Manhertz was re-signed as the primary blocker at the position. Likely, 25, was expected to be a bigger part of the Baltimore Ravens' offense in 2025 under Harbaugh, but the former fourth-rounder suffered a foot injury in the preseason and got a late start to the year. He never really recovered and finished with a career-low 27 catches for 307 yards and only one touchdown on 36 targets in 14 games (seven starts). Likely will be an obvious bounce-back candidate in fantasy football in 2026, although Johnson's presence could keep his ceiling low.
