Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Pat Freiermuth

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring) will not play in Week 7, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Goedert left last weekend's game early with a hamstring injury and did not participate in any team practices this week. The 29-year-old will now shift his focus on returning in Week 8 to face the Cincinnati Bengals. As a result, Grant Calcaterra will move up to the top of the depth chart and could be worth a look as a replacement in deeper formats, as he caught four passes for 67 yards last weekend when filling in Goedert.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth logged two receptions for 51 yards on three targets in a 37-15 win over the New York Jets. Freiermuth was surprisingly given fewer opportunities than fellow tight end Darnell Washington, who earned a career-high four targets. Still, Freiermuth outgained Washington and was extremely effective with limited touches. He turned a short completion from Russell Wilson into a 30-yard gain in the second quarter and later came down with a 21-yard deep ball. Pittsburgh's passing attack was more aggressive and fast-paced with Wilson at the helm, which should prove beneficial to Freiermuth going forward. He'll remain on the fantasy radar for a Week 8 meeting with the New York Giants.
