The new one-year deal after a complicated week of negotiations that included pushing back the void date on his contract twice. Had Goedert's contract been voi ded, Philadelphia would have accrued a $20 million dead cap hit if the tight end had signed with another team.

Last season, he caught nine passes (on 19 targets) for 111 yards across 16 regular-season games in 2025, when he served mostly as a run blocker and backup to Brenton Strange.

Dallas Goedert set career highs with 60 catches and 11 TDs in 2025. His production earned him offers elsewhere but he was willing to work with the #Eagles in pushing his void back twice to prevent a $20M cap hit and buy time for a one-year deal to return. pic.
