Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will look to contribute against the Washington Commanders in Week 16. Despite starting in place of the injured Dallas Goedert (knee), Calcaterra caught just one pass for 22 yards in the Eagles' 27-13 win over the Steelers. His involvement has been limited, with only two red-zone targets and one touchdown in five starts this season. The Commanders' defense has allowed the fifth-most receiving touchdowns per game to tight ends but ranks seventh in fewest receiving yards allowed to the position. This makes Calcaterra a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option heading into the matchup. Managers should consider more reliable options unless chasing upside in deeper leagues.
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught his lone target for 22 yards in the team's 27-13 win over the Steelers. Despite his expanded role due to Dallas Goedert (knee) being placed on IR, Calcaterra has only seen four targets across two games as the team's primary tight end. With DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown earning the majority of targets, Calcaterra is unlikely to see a significant uptick in volume. As such, he remains off the fantasy radar heading into the Eagles' Week 16 road matchup against the Washington Commanders.
Grant Calcaterra A Low-End Streaming Option In Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will aim to build on his first NFL touchdown as the team prepares to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15. Filling in for the injured Dallas Goedert (knee), Calcaterra recorded three catches for 16 yards and a touchdown in last week's win over the Panthers. The Steelers present a challenging matchup, allowing just 218.6 passing yards per game and only 14 passing touchdowns this season, tied for the fifth-fewest in the league. While Calcaterra has shown flashes, finishing as a top-10 PPR tight end three times in five starts, his upside is limited by just one touchdown and a single red-zone target in that span. Pittsburgh has been tough against tight ends, giving up the eighth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position over the last five weeks. Calcaterra profiles as a low-end streaming option in Week 15.
Grant Calcaterra Grabs First Career Touchdown In Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra had three catches for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers. With Dallas Goedert (knee) on the Injured Reserve list, Calcaterra took over as the team's starting tight end. While he only had three grabs, he at least found the end zone for the first time of his career. With the 26-year-old expected to remain atop the depth chart, he has streaming value for the Week 15 showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra is in line for more work in Sunday's matchup versus Carolina. With Dallas Goedert (knee) ruled out, Calcaterra will be tasked with filling the void at the tight end spot. He started a few games already this season while Goedert was on the shelf. Yet, the 26-year-old didn't do much and currently has only 17 receptions for 216 yards. He also doesn't have a touchdown. Fortunately, Calcaterra wIll go up against a Panthers defense that has allowed a league-worst nine touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers in any format.
Grant Calcaterra Sets Season High In Receptions Sunday
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught all five of his targets for 30 yards during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The third-year tight end was involved early in the game having four grabs before halftime, but did little after. Next week will mark the fourth since starter Dallas Goedert (hamstring) was injured against Cleveland and will be his first real shot at making a return to the field. Fantasy managers will need to monitor practice reports during the week, but Calcaterra may move back to his role as the No. 2 option if Goedert is able to put in any practice time this week.
Grant Calcaterra On The Streaming Radar Against Jaguars
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will take on the 2-6 Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. The 25-year-old got involved in last week's win over the Bengals, nabbing all three of his targets for 58 yards. He did well gaining big chunks and faces a Jaguars defense that is struggling to stop all positions at the moment. Jacksonville allows the 15th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends and will have their hands full guarding A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. This may be the last week that Calcaterra is starting in place of Dallas Goedert (hamstring) so fantasy managers in need have a chance to stream him in a decent Week 9 matchup.
Grant Calcaterra Perfect On Three Targets, Gains 58 Yards In Win
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught all three of his targets for 58 yards during the team's 37-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. It was a solid performance for the third-year tight end who had just one target a week ago against the Giants. Unfortunately for those who took the shot on streaming him this week, Calcaterra has a pedestrian performance compared to a litany of tight ends who went off this week. He will remain on the streaming radar next week, however, as the Eagles will face off against a terrible Jacksonville defense. Dallas Goedert (hamstring) has not practiced since suffering his injury back in Week 6 and is likely to miss another game at least. Calcaterra remains on the streaming radar in Week 8.
Grant Calcaterra In Line For Another Start In Week 8
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra will travel to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals in Week 8. The 25-year-old filled in for Dallas Goedert (hamstring) last week and was a popular waiver wire option but ended the day with just one target which he took for a five-yard reception. However, the Eagles threw the ball just 14 times in the game where they leaned on Saquon Barkley and the run game to blow out the Giants. This week, that will likely not be the case. The Bengals' offense is going to test the Eagles' defense and likely make the Eagles throw at a much higher rate than last week. To top it all off, the Bengals allow the third-most fantasy points per game to tight ends. It may feel shaky, but the third-year tight end should be near the top of the streaming options list in Week 8.
Grant Calcaterra Records Just One Reception In Win
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught his lone target for a gain of five yards during the team's 28-3 win over the New York Giants. After having solid involvement last week and catching four targets for 67 yards in replacement of Dallas Goedert (hamstring) the third-year tight end saw just one target against New York. However, no receiver outside of A.J. Brown had a good day in a game where quarterback Jalen Hurts only had to throw the ball 14 times. Calcaterra was still on the field a ton and will face a much easier Cincinnati defense next week and an offense that can keep the game competitive. He will be on the streaming radar once again in Week 8.
