Steps up in Goedert's absence Calcaterra caught all four of his targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns.

Impact Dallas Goedert (hamstring) was injured on the Eagles' first drive of the game and didn't return, leaving Calcaterra as the team's top tight end. The 2022 sixth-round pick took advantage of the opportunity to put together the most productive game of his career, highlighted by a 34-yard reception in the second quarter that helped set up an A.J. Brown touchdown. If Goedert is forced to miss a Week 7 contest against the Giants, Calcaterra figured to get the start, although Albert Okwuegbunam (core muscle) could be ready to come off IR by then and compete for snaps as well.

Minimal production in Week 2 Calcaterra secured both of his targets for 19 yards in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.

Impact Calcaterra operated as Philadelphia's No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert, playing 28 of the Eagles' 71 offensive snaps while Goedert played 69 snaps. Barring an injury to Goedert, the 25-year-old Calcaterra has an uphill battle for targets among a crowded and talented group of pass catchers. The 6-foot-4, 240-pounder should remain far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 3 matchup against the Saints.

Practicing again Calcaterra (shoulder) participated at practice Saturday, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Apparently, the shoulder issue Calcaterra had been dealing with was only a minor one. Barring any more setbacks, he projects for a peripheral role in Philadelphia's offense behind Dallas Goedert in 2024.

Misses practice Calcaterra (shoulder) sat out of practice Sunday, Zach Berman of PHLY reports.

Impact The injury listing appears to be new for the Eagles No. 2 tight end, and he was still out there with the team during the session, per Chris Franklin of NJ.com. Calcaterra has impressed this training camp and appears in line for the second tight end slot behind starter Dallas Goedert. The third-year pro caught nine balls over his first two seasons.

Frontrunner to be backup tight end Calcaterra is considered to be the leading candidate for the No. 2 spot at tight end with the Eagles in 2024, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Calcaterra has impressed in the early going at Philadelphia's training camp, distancing himself from the pack as the top reserve option behind Dallas Goedert at tight end. The 25-year-old reeled in all four of his targets for 39 yards over 15 contests with the Eagles in 2023 and he'll look to carve out a more substantial role on the offense in his third year in the league.

Full practice Thursday Calcaterra (concussion) logged a full practice with the Eagles on Thursday.

Impact Calcaterra missed the team's Week 9 win over the Cowboys with a concussion, but his ability to practice in full coming out of Philadelphia's bye week seems to suggest that he'll be ready to go for Monday's matchup with Kansas City. The tight end hasn't officially been cleared from concussion protocol quite yet, though he seems likely to be in the coming days.

NOVEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Sunday Calcaterra (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Impact Calcaterra left Sunday's game and was being evaluated for a concussion. He's been mostly used on special teams this season and has not accrued a target over the first seven games.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not targeted through six weeks Calcaterra went without a target while playing five of the Eagles' 70 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Jets.

Impact Calcaterra has yet to see any involvement in the passing game this season while logging 37 snaps on offense across the Eagles' first six contests. He'll be limited to a bit role while the top two options on the depth chart at tight end, Dallas Goedert and Jack Stoll, are both available.

Five catches in rookie season Calcaterra finished his rookie season with five catches for 81 yards and zero touchdowns ahead of the playoffs.

Impact Four of Calcaterra's five catches came when he was elevated for the second tight end role while Dallas Goedert missed time with a shoulder injury. The fact that Calcaterra still averaged less than a catch per game during those contests means it's difficult to see him having much fantasy relevance next season.

Headed for smaller role Calcaterra is expected to slide down to third on the depth chart at tight end in Saturday's game at Dallas after Philadelphia reinstated Dallas Goedert (shoulder) from injured rese...

Impact After missing the Eagles' last five games, Goedert is expected to step back in as the team's starting tight end, while Jack Stoll handles the No. 2 role. During Goedert's five-game absence, Calcaterra recorded four receptions for 41 yards on eight targets while playing at least 28 percent of the Eagles' offensive snaps in each contest. In his other seven appearances this season when Goedert was available, Calcaterra played less than a quarter of the snaps each time while totaling just one reception.

DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted four times Calcaterra pulled in two of his four targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 48-22 victory over the Giants.

Impact It was a busy day by Calcaterra's standards, as he'd only been targeted three times all year heading into the week. He was involved right from the start, catching a 13-yard pass on the Eagles' first play of the game. He got his team into the red zone with an 11-yard catch later on the same drive, but he failed to add to his tally the rest of the way.

DECEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Loses yards on lone catch Calcaterra lost two yards on his only catch in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

Impact Dallas Goedert (shoulder) missed his second consecutive game, but the Eagles have adjusted to his absence by hardly looking to their tight ends at all. In Week 11, it was Jack Stoll who provided the unit's lone target and lone reception, and it was Calcaterra who got that honor in Week 12. Nothing in the Eagles' game plan suggests that any Philadelphia tight end will have fantasy relevance until Goedert returns.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal role in Goedert's absence Calcaterra saw the field for just 19 offensive snaps and was not targeted a single time in Sunday's win over Indianapolis.

Impact Calcaterra could have been in line for an increased role in the absence of Dallas Goedert (shoulder), as No. 2 tight end Jack Stoll primarily fills a blocking role. While Calcaterra did indeed set a season high in offensive snaps, he remained in nowhere near a fantasy-relevant role.

Role could grow sans Goedert Calcaterra could benefit from an uptick in snaps with top tight end Dallas Goedert suffering a shoulder injury in Monday's loss to the Commanders that is expected to sideline him f...

Impact Jack Stoll has played 40 percent of the Eagles' snaps on offense this season and has been the clear No. 2 tight end through the team's first nine games, but he's been deployed almost exclusively as a blocker and has recorded just eight receptions through 25 career games. As such, the Eagles could look to the likes of Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson (knee) -- who is on the PUP list but could be activated Week 11 -- to help pick up the slack in the pass-catching department while Goedert and the 5.9 targets per game he's averaged for the season are out of the lineup. While Goedert has generally enjoyed could health this season up until now, Calcaterra hasn't played more than 17 snaps in any game in 2022 and hasn't drawn a target since he recorded a 40-yard reception Week 3.

NOVEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goes without target in Week 8 Calcaterra wasn't targeted while playing 11 of the Eagles' 53 snaps on offense Sunday in the team's 35-13 win over the Steelers.

Impact A healthy inactive through the Eagles' first two games, Calcaterra has now dressed in five consecutive contests as Philadelphia's No. 3 tight end. The role hasn't translated to much meaningful production or playing time, as the rookie has one reception (for 40 yards) to his name while playing just 55 total snaps on offense in his five games.

Grant Calcaterra: 'All of that hard work paid off for me' The rookie sixth-round pick's NFL debut featured his first catch, a 40-yard completion, in the win over Washington.
