Risk Flags
5- Draft Capital
Eagles used a 2nd-round pick (Eli Stowers, Vanderbilt) on a receiving TE who is being groomed as Dallas Goedert's long-term replacement. Stowers' arrival effectively relegates Calcaterra to TE3 with no clear path to meaningful snaps.
- Depth Chart Block
Dallas Goedert re-signed on a 1-year $7M deal and remains the unquestioned TE1. Calcaterra's 2025 target share (3.2%, 82nd among TEs) reflects just how locked out he is behind Goedert in this offense.
- Roster Security
After the Eagles drafted Eli Stowers in the 2nd round (#54) and signed Johnny Mundt, Calcaterra is reportedly 'in danger of losing his roster spot' in a crowded room (Goedert, Stowers, Mundt, Calcaterra, plus Jenkins/Latu/Bell). His path to even active-roster snaps is at risk.
- Usage & Volume
2025 was a steep decline — 9 receptions, 76 yards, 1 TD on only 13 targets across 15 games. Snap count dropped significantly from 2024, and oblique and late-season injuries further limited his opportunities.
- Contract Situation
Calcaterra signed only a 1-year, $2M deal on March 10, 2026; he is an expiring asset with no guaranteed future role in Philadelphia or elsewhere.
