The Philadelphia Eagles (4-1) will visit the New York Giants (1-4) in Week 6. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Dallas Goedert.
Is Dallas Goedert Playing in Week 6?
Goedert (knee) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Giants and will likely be a game-time decision.
We’ll continue to monitor the Eagles’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Dallas Goedert in Week 6?
We’ve spent 1.5 months excusing the limited production of the Eagle receivers due to game script and the style of offense that this team wants to run, so why not play the other side of that coin?
Philadelphia is throwing the fourth fewest passes per game this season (27.8) and yet, Dallas Goedert is one of six players across the league to have scored in each of their past three games. Three of his seven touches over the past two weeks have come in the red zone, and while it’s been a fun ride, the math part of me simply cannot get behind assuming that it continues.
Goedert turned nine targets into 19 yards against the Broncos over the weekend: what happens if/when the volume dries up?
You’re starting him for now, especially in a matchup that doesn’t scare me, but he’s not in my circle of trust when it comes to tight ends I roster and know that I won’t need to sweat it at any point.
