In a somewhat surprising turn of events, the Eagles ultimately did not trade Dallas Goedert on draft night.

While offers for him were made, he remained with the team.

And that will seem to be the case for the rest of the season. The Eagles kept Goedert in the loop on the potential trades involving him and ultimately the two teams decided to work it out.

#Eagles and Dallas Goedert have, in essence agreed on the reworked deal — a restructure of his one-year contract that decreases $14.25M to $10M with up to a possible $1M in incentives.

A new deal lowering his cap hit by over $4 million is expected to keep him in Philadelphia for the year.

There is no extension, however, so this may indicate that 2025 is the end of the road for the two sides. This situation is the same as Josh Sweat’s last year – the sides agreed to a reworked deal to get through that season, but then Sweat cashed in with the Cardinals this offseason following the Super Bowl Championship.

Goedert is far and away the best receiving option the Birds have in their TE corps and the free agency options they signed did nothing to change that, though he does carry the longest injury history (at the NFL level) of any TE on their roster.

His remainder with the team makes it so Hurts’ most likely top five targets all remain the same from last season.
