Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert will remain with the franchise through 2026 after reportedly signing a new contract on Sunday.
The 31-year-old veteran agreed to a one-year deal worth $7 million, according to contract details obtained by ESPN.
Over his eight seasons in Philadelphia, Goedert has established himself as the franchise’s current leader in catches among active players, recording 409 receptions. Last season, he topped the Eagles’ roster with 11 touchdown catches while hauling in 60 passes for 591 receiving yards.
Contract negotiations between Philadelphia and Goedert had been ongoing for multiple weeks, with both sides working to finalize terms before he entered free agency. This approach helped the Eagles avoid taking a $20 million dead money penalty against their salary cap.
The signing provides Philadelphia with additional roster flexibility as speculation continues around potential trades involving wide receiver A.J. Brown this offseason. Moving Brown before June 1 would create a salary cap burden exceeding $40 million, though that figure would decrease to approximately $20 million for any deal completed after that deadline.
Last year, Goedert accepted a restructured contract that reduced his annual earnings from $14 million down to $10 million.
Since being selected in the second round of the NFL Draft, Goedert has accumulated 4,676 receiving yards and scored 35 touchdowns throughout his professional career.
