Well this sucks. The Eagles lose an elite catching threat right before the hardest part of their schedule. Dallas Goedert is going to miss some time with a forearm fracture:

Eagles’ TE Dallas Goedert has a fracture in his forearm and will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine if there is any further damage, as well, per sources. Either way, Goedert is set to miss time and is an injured reserve candidate. pic.twitter.com/rd9Lnw1fsA

Am I wrong for thinking this tackle was dirty from the safety?

I understand it’s football, but the guy gets stiff armed in the face, grabs Goedert’s arm, twists, and falls on it.

Goedert is probably looking at an IR stint so with him injured and Grant Calcaterra dealing with a concussion the Eagles are down to Jack Stoll and Albert Okwuegbunam. Stoll and Calcaterra are used more in the blocking scheme and Okwuegbunam will be counted on through the air:

With the injury to Grant Calcaterra, Albert Okwuegbunam can suit up for the #Eagles for the first time this season.

He’s a threat in the passing game.#DallasWeek | #FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/wjetFcV8wQ
