Grant Calcaterra - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Notches sixth reception of 2025 Calcaterra hauled in his lone target for a four-yard reception while playing 37 of 69 offensive snaps in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders.

Impact Though he saw ample playing time behind top tight end Dallas Goedert in the blowout win, Calcaterra was deployed primarily as a blocker, as he ran just six routes on the afternoon. That's been par for the course for Calcaterra throughout the season; he's logged double-digit snaps in all but one of his 12 appearances but has just six catches for 52 yards on nine targets.

Held without target Monday Calcaterra wasn't targeted while playing 15 of the Eagles' 71 snaps on offense in Monday's 22-19 overtime loss to the Chargers.

Impact Calcaterra continued to serve mainly as a blocker on offense for the Eagles; he didn't run a route on any of his 15 snaps in Week 14. Even with top tight end Dallas Goedert missing a game back in Week 2, Calcaterra hasn't made much of a splash in fantasy at any point this season. He's totaled five receptions for 48 yards and no touchdowns on eight targets through 11 appearances.

DECEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

No targets Sunday Calcaterra went without a target while playing 34 of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.

Impact Though he was on the field for nearly half of the Eagles' snaps, Calcaterra ran just three routes on the night. So long as top tight end Dallas Goedert stays healthy, Calcaterra looks like he'll be limited mostly to a blocking role on offense.

NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

No targets in Week 8 return Calcaterra went without a target while playing 36 of the Eagles' 59 snaps on offense in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants.

Impact Though he played just one fewer snap than top tight end Dallas Goedert, Calcaterra -- who had missed the previous two games while recovering from a concussion -- was substantially less involved in the passing game. Goedert ran 21 routes to Calcaterra's eight and capitalized on those opportunities, finishing with a 3-28-2 receiving line on three targets. Calcaterra will continue to remain an infrequent target of quarterback Jalen Hurts so long as Goedert is available.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Week 8 Calcaterra (oblique) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact After missing the previous two games, Calcaterra will return to the field as Dallas Goedert's backup. Calcaterra has just four catches for 40 scoreless yards on the season and carries no fantasy value while Goedert is healthy.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Still limited Thursday Calcaterra (oblique) remained limited in Thursday's practice.

Impact Calcaterra has missed two consecutive games with the injury, but back-to-back limited practices at least gives him a chance to return for Week 8 against the Giants. Calcaterra has four catches for 40 scoreless yards as Dallas Goedert's distant backup this season.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Logs limited practice Wednesday Calcaterra (oblique) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact Calcaterra has sat out Philadelphia's last two games due to an oblique issue he picked up in Week 5 versus the Broncos, but it now appears he could be on track to suit up again soon. He'll get two more chances to upgrade to a full practice before the Eagles release their final practice report of the week Friday.

Eagles Elevate TE For Sunday's Game Vs. Vikings With Grant Calcaterra ruled out with an oblique injury, the Eagles elevated TE EJ Jenkins for Sunday's game at Minnesota.

OCTOBER 18 • THENEWSTRIBUNE.COM

Remains sidelined by oblique injury Calcaterra (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Impact Calcaterra will sit out a second consecutive game. Kylen Granson should see added run as Dallas Goedert's backup against the Vikings.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Absent for first practice of Week 7 Calcaterra (oblique) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the first quarter of a Week 5 loss to Denver and hasn't practiced since. Philadelphia last played on Thursday Night Football against the Giants, but even with the extra time between games, he's very much at risk of sitting out this Sunday's matchup in Minnesota. If that proves to be the case, Kylen Granson would likely work as the Eagles' No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert.

Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter is not playing against the Giants because of a heel injury

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter is not playing in the reigning Super Bowl champions' game at the New York Giants because of a heel injury

OCTOBER 9 • Associated Press

Out for Thursday night Calcaterra (oblique) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Giants.

Impact The 2022 sixth-round pick from SMU sustained an oblique injury in the Eagles' Week 5 loss to the Broncos, limiting him to just seven offensive snaps. He didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss his first contest of the 2025 season. While Calcaterra is sidelined Thursday night, Kylen Granson is expected to operate as Philly's No. 2 tight end.

The reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles are set to face the New York Giants on Thursday night

OCTOBER 8 • Associated Press

Estimated DNP for Tuesday The Eagles listed Calcaterra (oblique) as a DNP on Tuesday's estimated injury report.

Impact Calcaterra is recovering from an oblique injury that he suffered during Sunday's loss against the Broncos. However, with the Eagles operating on a short week, the fourth-year tight end is in jeopardy of being sidelined for Thursday's NFC East clash against the Giants. Kylen Granson would be in line to see a spike in snaps on offense as the TE2 behind Dallas Goedert if Calcaterra is not cleared to play.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out walk-through practice The Eagles listed Calcaterra (oblique) as a non-participant for Thursday's walk-through practice.

Impact Calcaterra is recovering from an oblique injury that he suffered during Sunday's loss to the Broncos. With the Eagles facing a quick turnaround for Week 6 with a Thursday night matchup versus the Eagles, the expectation is that Calcalterra will miss his first game of the season, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. If Calcaterra ends up being ruled out for the Week 6 contest, Kylen Granson would step in as the top backup to starting tight end Dallas Goedert.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Considered unavailable Monday Calcaterra (oblique) was considered to be a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Impact Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the first quarter of the team's 21-17 loss to the Broncos in Week 5, ultimately remaining sidelined for the rest of the day. The tight end will have two more chances to participate in some capacity at practice before Thursday's matchup with the Giants.

OCTOBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Done for day Calcaterra (oblique) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the first quarter. The injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for the rest of Sunday's game, and it puts him in jeopardy of missing the Eagles' Week 6 clash against the Giants on Thursday. Cameron Latu and Kylen Granson will serve as the Eagles' backup tight ends behind Dallas Goedert in Calcaterra's absence.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Exits game with oblique injury Calcaterra is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver due to an oblique injury.

Impact Calcaterra went to the locker room in the first quarter after sustaining an oblique injury, and he'll undergo further tests to determine whether he can return. Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu will see more snaps at tight end behind starter Dallas Goedert for as long as Calcaterra is out of the game.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go against Denver Calcaterra (illness) was a full participant in Friday's practice and carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Impact Calcaterra popped up on Thursday's injury report due to an illness, but the fourth-year tight end has been cleared to play in Week 5. With Dallas Goedert (knee) also given the green light to play Sunday, Calcaterra will slot in as the Eagles' TE2 while Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu provide additional depth at the position.

OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Under the weather Calcaterra (illness) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

Impact The illness appears to be new, as Calcaterra was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. How he recovers over the coming days will determine whether he will play in Sunday's home game against the Broncos. Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be in line to serve as the Eagles' top two tight ends if Calcaterra and Dallas Goedert (knee) were unable to play.

OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

No targets in Week 3 Calcaterra was not targeted a single time in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

Impact Calcaterra caught just one pass as the Eagles' top tight end in Week 2, but his role got even smaller due to Dallas Goedert being back in action in Week 3. Calcaterra barely even saw the field, playing just 12 offensive snaps as the Eagles spent most of the game in one tight-end sets while trailing for most of the game.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

No targets in Week 3 Calcaterra was not targeted a single time in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

Impact Calcaterra caught just one pass as the Eagles' top tight end in Week 2, but his role got even smaller with Dallas Goedert back in action in Week 3. Calcaterra barely even saw the field, playing just 12 offensive snaps as the Eagles spent most of the game in one tight end sets while trailing for most of the game.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Held to one catch as top tight end Calcaterra was elevated to the Eagles' No. 1 tight end Sunday against the Chiefs due to Dallas Goedert's knee injury but finished with just one catch for six yards.

Impact Calcaterra outsnapped fellow tight end Kyle Granson 53-34, leaving little doubt that he remains Goedert's top deputy. Goedert has missed an average of five games per season since 2022, so that role should continue to lead to a handful of starts for Calcaterra, but those starts won't necessarily lead to many targets. He was targeted just twice in Week 2.
