The Cleveland Browns have been identified as a potential trade destination for Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert, according to a report from Heavy's Sean Deveney published Friday.
Goedert, 31, has been a key contributor for the Eagles since being drafted in 2018 and was part of the team's Super Bowl LII championship roster. The veteran tight end, who wears number 88, has developed into one of the NFL's more complete players at his position, combining receiving ability with strong blocking.
The Browns, who have sought to upgrade their tight end room, could view Goedert as a significant addition to their offense. Cleveland's current tight end group includes David Njoku, but adding a player of Goedert's caliber would provide quarterback Deshaun Watson with another reliable target.
Any potential deal would require the Eagles to be willing to move on from a player who remains under contract and has been a staple of their offense. Philadelphia would also need to consider the salary cap implications of trading a veteran contributor.
Deveney's report did not specify what compensation the Eagles might seek in return for Goedert, nor did it indicate how advanced any discussions might be between the two organizations.
