Dallas Goedert
TE
Philadelphia Eagles
- Quarterback Tanner McKee is questionable. Watch the status.
- Teammate DeVonta Smith (a top target) is questionable.
- Teammate Dontayvion Wicks (a top target) is questionable.
A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.
This is how TEs have played against the Texans in the 2026 season.

How Dallas Goedert should do vs the TexansSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Texans, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Dallas Goedert has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Texans opponents to line them up with: the best TE they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Dallas Goedert will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Texans avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Dallas Goedert's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Dallas Goedert usually produces.
Projected is Dallas Goedert's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Texans were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.

Difference is what the defense allows minus what Goedert averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Start / Sit · Dallas GoedertGood confidence · 8.5 proj pts1/10 start
- Dallas Goedert averages 10.7 PPR points over 6 games (recent-weighted 9.8) and has played as the team's TE1.
- The Texans have allowed 7.7 points to TE1s over 7 games (-27% vs league). The model applies 70% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a -19% adjustment.
- Last season's average (12.3) is blended in at 25% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Projection: 8.5 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level TE scores about 13.5 and a top-tier one about 19.5.

Prediction & chance to scoreDallas Goedert vs the Texans
Prediction for Dallas Goedert
Nobody knows which slot Dallas Goedert will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Texans.
I predict about 8.5 points for Dallas Goedert if playing as a TE1. Dallas Goedert has averaged 10.7 over 6 games, and the Texans have given up 7.7 to TE1s (-27% vs the league average of 10.5).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Dallas Goedert scored: Wk 1 23.7, Wk 2 1.4, Wk 5 9.8, Wk 6 12.1, Wk 7 9.8, Wk 8 7.2. Average 10.7; weighted toward recent games it is 10.4.
2. The defense. Over 7 games, the Texans allowed 7.7 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.5, so that is -27%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 7 defensive games, only 70% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -19% adjustment (x0.81).
4. Result. 10.4 x 0.81 = 8.5. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Dallas Goedert is to reach it as a TE1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (8.5) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 7.4 points, leaning on Dallas Goedert's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical TE swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 8.
With only 6 games of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
