Dallas Goedert Officially Ruled Out for Week 4

Friday, October 2, 12:38 PM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (knee) has officially been ruled out for his team's Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, per Zach Berman of The Athletic. Goedert suffered a sprained MCL in Week 2 and was given a multi-week return timeline at the time of the injury, so it's not a surprise that he will return to action in Week 4. The Eagles did not place Goedert on Injured Reserve, which indicates that the team thinks he has a chance to return within four games of the injury. However, Week 4 will be his second straight game on the sidelines, and he's not guaranteed to return in Week 5 either. Philadelphia will also be without star wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) on Sunday, leaving the team down its two top pass-catchers. Eagles wideouts Dontayvion Wicks and Makai Lemon are likely to see increased workloads, and tight end Zach Ertz could be a deep-league streamer option for fantasy managers in Week 4.

New York Jets and Jeremy Ruckert Agree to a Two-Year Extension

Wednesday, December 17, 9:45 AM

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Wednesday morning that the New York Jets have agreed to terms with young tight end Jeremy Ruckert, locking him in for the future. He gets a 2-year, $10M extension with upside to $11M. Ruckert, the fourth-year player out of Ohio State, has underwhelmed in the receiving game since joining the Jets. This year, he has hit career highs in receptions (20) and receiving yards (163), but was drafted in the third round and is an asset to the team primarily because of his willingness and effectiveness to block in the run game. The Jets now have Ruckert and a rookie out of LSU, Mason Taylor, as their top tight end options for years to come. From a fantasy football standpoint, Ruckert is well off the radar and shouldn't be rostered in any formats.
