Calcaterra secured both of his targets for 19 yards in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons. Calcaterra operated as Philadelphia's No. 2 tight end behind Dallas Goedert, playing 28 of the Eagles' 71 offensive snaps while Goedert played 69 snaps. Barring an injury to Goedert, the 25-year-old Calcaterra has an uphill battle for targets among a crowded and talented group of pass catchers. The 6-foot-4, 240-pounder should remain far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 3 matchup against the Saints.

Calcaterra (shoulder) participated at practice Saturday, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Apparently, the shoulder issue Calcaterra is dealing with is only a minor one. Barring any more setbacks, he projects for a peripheral role in Philadelphia's offense behind Dallas Goedert in 2024.
Calcaterra (shoulder) sat out of practice Sunday, Zach Berman of PHLY reports. The injury listing appears to be new for the Eagles No. 2 tight end, and he was still out there with the team during the session, per Chris Franklin of NJ.com. Calcaterra has impressed this training camp and appears in line for the second tight end slot behind starter Dallas Goedert. The third-year pro caught nine balls over his first two seasons.
Calcaterra is considered to be the leading candidate for the No. 2 spot at tight end with the Eagles in 2024, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Calcaterra has impressed in the early going at Philadelphia's training camp, distancing himself from the pack as the top reserve option behind Dallas Goedert at tight end. The 25-year-old reeled in all four of his targets for 39 yards over 15 contests with the Eagles in 2023 and he'll look to carve out a more substantial role on the offense in his third year in the league.
Calcaterra left Sunday's game and was being evaluated for a concussion. He's been mostly used on special teams this season and has not accrued a target over the first seven games.
