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.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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.

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.
Analysis: 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.

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.
Analysis: 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.

Cleared to play Week 8
Calcaterra (oblique) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: 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 little fantasy value while Goedert is healthy.

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

Absent for first practice of Week 7
Calcaterra (oblique) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: 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, Calcaterra is very much at risk of sitting out this Sunday's matchup in Minnesota. If he doesn't play, Kylen Granson likely would work as the Eagles' No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert.

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

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

Analysis: 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.

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.
Analysis: 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.

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

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.
Analysis: 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.

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

Held to one catch as top tight end
Calcaterra served as 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.
Analysis: 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.

Blanked in Week 1 win
Calcaterra wasn't targeted in Thursday's 24-20 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Jalen Hurts peppered starting tight end Dallas Goedert with a team-high seven targets, but there was no action left over in the passing game for Calcaterra and Kylen Granson. On the bright side, Calcaterra was on the field for 59 percent of Philadelphia's offensive snaps, behind Goedert's 83 percent but well ahead of Granson's 27 percent. It would likely take an injury to Goedert for Calcaterra to gain any fantasy relevance in 2025.

Two grabs in season finale
Calcaterra caught two of his four targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Giants.
Analysis: The Eagles rested most of their starters in Week 18 with the second seed in the NFC locked up. However, they gave starting tight end Dallas Goedert the chance to knock off some rust after a four-game absence due to a knee injury, so Calcaterra didn't have the same workload boost as most of the team's backups. Thanks to more missed time from Goedert throughout the year, Calcaterra finished his third professional season with career highs in catches (24), yards (298) and touchdowns (one).

Big gain on one catch
Calcaterra secured one of two targets for 34 yards in the Eagles' 41-7 win over the Cowboys on Sunday.
Analysis: Calcaterra bounced back to an extent from a blanking against the Commanders in Week 16, recording one of his signature chunk gains on his one reception. Calcaterra continues to operate as the No. 1 tight end with Dallas Goedert (IR-knee) sidelined, but the former hasn't seen more than three targets in a game since Week 9. Calcaterra and the Eagles close out the season against the Giants at home in Week 18.

Makes one catch
Calcaterra recorded one catch on one target for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Calcattera continues to see an uptick in snaps with Dallas Goedert (knee) sidelined. However, he has only four targets across two games as the team's primary tight end while working behind DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown for targets. So long as that duo remains healthy, Calcattera is unlikely to see an uptick in volume, leaving him as an unreliable fantasy contributor.

Snags first career TD
Calcaterra caught all three of his targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Getting the start at tight end in place of Dallas Goedert (knee), Calcaterra didn't see much volume but came up big when it counted, catching a four-yard TD from Jalen Hurts early in the fourth quarter for what proved to be the game-winning score. It was Calcaterra's first career touchdown, and in the five contests Goedert has either missed or left early this season, his understudy has produced a 16-176-1 line on 16 targets.

Expected to start next week
Calcaterra finished Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens without a reception but could step into a starting role next week after Dallas Goedert left with a knee injury in the fourth quarter.
Analysis: Calcaterra typically doesn't get many looks while Goedert is on the field, so it was no surprise to see him finish without a catch across his 27 offensive snaps in a game where Goedert was largely available. Goedert's injury doesn't appear to be season-ending but could cost him at least a week, opening up an opportunity for Calcaterra. When Goedert missed four games with a hamstring injury earlier in the year, Calcaterra averaged 3.3 catches for 40.0 yards.

No catches with Goedert back
Calcaterra finished with zero catches (on one target) in Sunday's 34-6 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Calcaterra averaged 3.3 catches for 40.0 yards on 4.0 targets over the previous four weeks with Dallas Goedert out with a hamstring injury, but his role in the offense all but evaporated with Goedert back in action iWeek 10. That's likely to remain the case going forward, as Calcaterra averaged just one catch for 14 yards prior to Goedert's injury.

Collects all five targets Sunday
Calcaterra brought in all five of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-23 win over Jacksonville.
Analysis: Dallas Goedert (hamstring) remained sidelined Sunday, opening the door for Calcaterra to make his third consecutive start for Philadelphia. The 25-year-old registered new season highs in receptions and targets despite his meager 30 yards of output as a receiver. If Calcaterra draws another start against the Cowboys next Sunday, he would make for a decent PPR or deeper-league option in Week 10.

Calcaterra brought in all three targets for 58 yards in the Eagles' 37-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: With Dallas Goedert (hamstring) sidelined for the second straight game, Calcaterra drew another start and parlayed it into a productive afternoon. Calcaterra's numbers were somewhat surprising considering he'd drawn just one target from Jalen Hurts against the Giants in Week 7, but it wasn't completely unforeseen since he'd contributed a 4-67 line in Week 6 against the Browns.

Analysis: With Goedert sitting out the Week 7 win over the Giants and missing most of the Week 6 win over the Browns with the hamstring injury, Calcaterra has taken on an expanded role. He's played at least 70 percent of the offensive snaps in both contests, combining for five receptions for 72 yards on five targets.

Analysis: Calcaterra saw plenty of playing time in the absence of Dallas Goedert (hamstring), but the Eagles didn't make him a significant part of the gameplan. That wasn't necessarily his fault, as the team's rushing attack was so successful that they only attempted 15 passes in total, leaving very few targets to go around.

Analysis: He'll be filling in for Dallas Goedert, who has been ruled out for Week 7 after injuring his hamstring in last Sunday's win over the Browns. After Goedert was limited to just three snaps Week 6, Calcaterra stepped in to play 57 snaps and finished with four catches for 67 yards on four targets.

Calcaterra caught all four of his targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns.
Analysis: 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.

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

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

Calcaterra lost two yards on his only catch in Sunday's win over Green Bay.
Analysis: 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 Week 12. Nothing in the Eagles' game plan suggests that any of the team's tight ends will have fantasy relevance until Goedert returns.

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.
Analysis: 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 potentially sidelined for multiple weeks after suffering a shoulder injury in Monday's loss to the Commanders, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: 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, although Goedert's 5.9…read more

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.
Analysis: 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.

Will sit again
Calcaterra (coach's decision) is inactive Monday against the Vikings.
Analysis: Calcaterra will sit again in Week 2 despite making the 53-man roster. The Eagles have opted to bring Noah Togiai up from the practice squad for the second straight week to dress as the No. 3 tight end, leaving Calcaterra sidelined. The rookie tight end will continue to try and earn the chance to make his NFL debut in Week 3, when the Eagles play the Commanders.

Out for Sunday
Calcaterra (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Lions.
Analysis: Calcaterra was able to make the 53-man roster, but he's still No. 4 on the Eagles' tight end positional depth chart. He'll give way to Dallas Goedert, Jack Stoll and Noah Togiai at the position Sunday. The rookie, selected in the sixth round of the 2022 Draft, will need to prove more to crack the roster on gameday in Week 2.
