Team news: Philadelphia Eagles | Page 5

Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals and may miss a couple of weeks.

Mitch Trubisky will take over as the quarterback in the meantime. The Steelers have a short week coming up as they host the Patriots on Thursday. Pickett may also miss Week 15 against the Colts. Pickett left the game early, throwing just 10 passes and completing seven of them for 70 yards. Trubisky went 11/17 for 117 yards and a touchdown in the 24-10 loss. Pittsburgh is now in a four-way tie at 7-5 with the Browns, Colts and Texans atop the wild card race.

Eagles are listing TE Dallas Goedert as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the 49ers due to his forearm injury.

Related Players: Jack Stoll

It doesn't look like Goedert is trending towards playing in Week 13, so he'll likely miss at least one more week with his forearm injury. Jack Stoll has technically seen an increased workload, but that has parlay into four targets and 17 yards over the last two weeks. Goedert will return to a top-ten TE role when eligible.

Dallas Goedert: In my mind I’m ready to go, but I still have to talk to the doctors. Eagles TE practiced some today for first time since his forearm fracture.

The Eagles offense has essentially moved away from the tight end position with Goedert sidelined, but that should shift if he suits up in Week 13. With the state of the position in fantasy, Goedert can definitely be plugged back into lineups if he returns, as an end zone option on an explosive offense.

49ers DNP: DT Arik Armstead (foot), RB Jordan Mason (hamstring), WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib), T Trent Williams (resting player)

Eagles DNP: TE Grant Calcaterra (ankle), DT Fletcher Cox (groin), LB Zach Cunningham (hamstring), S Justin Evans (knee), TE Dallas Goedert (forearm)

It looks like Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (forearm) will push to play this weekend vs the 49ers.

The Eagles do miss the presence of Geodert at TE. The rest of the post said we'll see if that's possible to be back for Week 13 as this week goes. The post added it does seem very realistic for Goedert to be on the field in two weeks vs. the Cowboys.

The Steelers have fired offensive coordinator Matt Canada.

No official announcement, but it's Pelissero's understanding the Steelers are expected to have RB coach Eddie Faulkner take over as OC, with QB coach Mike Sullivan handling play-calling duties. The offense struggled in a loss to the Browns, and, have been outproduced most of the season despite winning six games. Pelissero added HC Mike Tomlin usually doesn't make in-season changes, the move was made because the Steelers are "all-in on Pickett."

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has worn a brace on his left leg in recent weeks without missing any time, but it looked like that might change after he took a shot to his left knee in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the Cowboys.

Hurts stayed down before making his way off the field, but he was back at it in the third quarter.

It was a concerning scene for a while after Hurts went down and Mariotta started warming up. Mariotta struggled in the preseason, so much so many who follow the team wondered if he'd even survive cuts. McKee is the team's QB3. Hurts ended up not missing a play but appeared to limp at times. The story added after the game, Hurts was asked about his knee but continued to avoid any specific discussion of what might be ailing him. He said he’s looking forward to some extra time off this week, as the Eagles have a bye in Week 10.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert has a fracture in his arm and is expected to miss about four weeks.

Goedert will have an MRI and will have surgery, possibly today, Rapoport said. He's certainly an IR/return candidate given the timeline, which is overall good news. It's a significant drop off from Goedert. Calcaterra and Stoll are up next and we may even have an Albert O sighting over the next month. Stoll is probably the starter based on snaps played this season. All three backup TEs have a combined two catches this season, and both were by Stoll.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (ribs) was a full participant today and has no game status. He'll play on TNF.

Pickett has a decent matchup in Week 9 against the Titans, but still not good enough to put him on fantasy radars. It's been a rough 2023 season for the sophomore, who has topped 15 fantasy points only twice.
