Goedert Nears Eagles Tight End TD Record, Eyes Franchise Mark

Dallas Goedert is having a career-best season with 9 touchdown catches for the Eagles, nearing Pete Retzlaff's 1965 franchise record of 10. Goedert, 30, has found increased red zone opportunities this year, averaging 3.4 TDs in his first seven seasons compared to his current nine. He expressed excitement about the red zone chances and his ability to score, noting the team's evolving philosophy. Goedert, who agreed to a one-year restructured contract, has 54 catches for 551 yards this season. He acknowledged a missed opportunity for a third TD against the Raiders that would have tied the record.
