The tight end faced some uncertainty before his contract was reworked. “Obviously I’d love to play my entire career in Philadelphia, but I’m not too worried about that," he says.

Just days before the start of the 2025 NFL Draft, rumors began circulating that the Philadelphia Eagles were planning to trade tight end Dallas Goedert that weekend. Even Goedert himself thought his time in Philadelphia was coming to an end.

But as the weeks went along, and Goedert remained on the team, hope began to grow. It reached its apex when the organization and their former second round pick agreed to a reworked deal that allowed the star to hit free agency next season, but at a lower cap hit.
