Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or Dallas Goedert

Friday, December 6, 5:10 PM

The New Orleans Saints officially placed tight end Taysom Hill (knee) on Injured Reserve on Friday. In addition to suffering an ACL tear in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Hill also suffered additional damage to his left knee and will miss the remainder of the 2024 season. It's a tough blow for the 34-year-old and the Saints offense after Hill had 188 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns just two weeks ago. He did it all for the Saints on offense and special teams and will be sorely missed the rest of the way, which should lead to even more volume for running back Alvin Kamara. Hill's fantasy value was peaking just before his injury. He should have already been dropped in redraft leagues, and Hill's availability for the start of the 2025 season could be in jeopardy. Tight end Juwan Johnson becomes stream-worthy in Week 14 against the Giants with six teams on bye.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. While Goedert has consistently found himself on the injury report in recent weeks, the ankle injury is new. Goedert was a huge piece of the Eagles' win over the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round. He caught four passes for 56 yards as the lone bright spot of a lackluster Eagles' passing game. Goedert will be necessary as a chain mover against the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game. Given the novelty of the injury, Goedert's status will need to be monitored heading into the weekend. He has caught eight passes for 103 yards and a touchdown during the Eagles' playoff run. His toughness and run-after-catch ability have been a huge part of the Eagles' success this postseason.
