Dallas Goedert Injury Update: Impact on 49ers vs. Eagles Betting
The Philadelphia Eagles are gearing up for their playoff matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, with a key update on tight end Dallas Goedert’s injury. Earlier in the week, Goedert was limited in practice due to a knee issue. However, he is not listed on the final injury report, which is a significant boost for the Eagles.
Injury Report Details
The final injury report for the Eagles reveals several factors to consider ahead of the game:
- DNP – G Landon Dickerson (rest), OL Brett Toth (concussion)
- LIMITED – TE Grant Calcaterra (ankle), DT Jalen Carter (hip), TE Dallas Goedert (knee), T Lane Johnson (foot)
- FULL – LB Nakobe Dean (hamstring), S Marcus Epps (concussion), OLB Azeez Ojulari
Dallas Goedert’s Season Performance
Dallas Goedert has been crucial to the Eagles’ offensive strategy this season. He has played 15 games, recording:
- 60 receptions from 82 targets
- 591 receiving yards
- 11 touchdowns
Notably, Goedert scored in each of the last three games of the regular season. He has also excelled in high-pressure situations, with multiple games where he scored at least twice.
Matchup Against San Francisco
The Eagles are up against a San Francisco defense that ranks 25th in expected points added per pass this season. This statistic suggests potential vulnerabilities in the 49ers’ ability to defend against potent pass-catchers like Goedert, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith.
Betting Odds for Dallas Goedert
As the Eagles take on the 49ers, prop bets are emerging, particularly for Goedert. One promising option is:
- Dallas Goedert Anytime Touchdown (+190)
Despite occasional fluctuations in his target numbers, Goedert has proven to be a formidable red-zone threat. During the regular season, he excelled with:
- 13 of 15 targets caught in the red zone
- 10 touchdowns scored on those receptions
In situations closer to the goal line, he caught eight of nine targets, scoring on every catch. Given the 49ers’ struggles against tight ends (allowing 10 receiving touchdowns during the regular season), Goedert has a strong chance to excel.
As action unfolds this Sunday, bettors and fans alike will be closely watching Goedert’s performance in this pivotal playoff match. Remember, betting odds are subject to change, and those who might face gambling issues are encouraged to seek help.
