Eagles, TE Dallas Goedert reach 4-year contract agreement
The Philadelphia Eagles and tight end Dallas Goedert have agreed on a four-year contract extension through the 2025 season.
The team announced the agreement but did not release the contract value. NFL Network said the contract is worth $57 million, while ESPN pegged it at $59 million. At either amount, it will put Goedert among the top three tight ends in pay on an average value-per-year basis.
George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers earns an average of $15 million a year, and Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs makes $14.31 million, per Spotrac.
Goedert, 26, was scheduled to become a free agent at the conclusion of the 2021 league year.
The Eagles selected Goedert in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft with the 49th overall draft pick. He has played 51 games (34 starts) for Philadelphia with 166 catches for 1,894 yards with 14 touchdowns.
In nine games (eight starts) this season, Goedert has 29 catches for 429 yards with two touchdowns.
