Albert Okwuegbunam

Eagles placed TE Albert Okwuegbunam (core) on injured reserve.

The former Denver Bronco fantasy darling seemed likely to push for back-up duties behind Dallas Goedert but he underwent surgery to repair a core muscle injury and will be out for 6-8 weeks. It’s possible Albert O will return to the field in the second half of the season. For now, that means Grant Calcaterra is the only tight end behind Goedert.
