PHILADELPHIA — Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert has a broken right forearm and will undergo an MRI Monday to determine if there is further damage, sources tell ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Regardless, Goedert will miss time and is an injured reserve candidate.

Goedert was injured in the third quarter of Sunday’s 28-23 win over the Dallas Cowboys, when he received a short pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts and ran down the left sideline for a 28-yard gain. Safety Markquese Bell grabbed Goedert by the right arm to make the tackle and his weight appeared to land on that arm as they fell to the ground.

Goedert went out and didn’t return, finishing with three catches for 50 yards. Jack Stoll received the bulk of the reps in Goedert’s absence, while Albert Okwuegbunam, acquired from the Denver Broncos via an August trade, made his Eagles debut and played six snaps.

Grant Calcaterra was also sidelined Sunday after suffering a concussion in Week 9 against the Washington Commanders.

Goedert, a second-round pick in the 2018 draft, has 35 catches for 360 yards and two scores this year. He missed five games last season with a broken left shoulder.
