Goedert will miss another game due to a hamstring injury. It’s unclear when he will be back in the lineup, but the team hopes that it will be sooner rather than later. Grant Calcaterra will continue to see more work in his absence on Sunday.

It comes as no surprise that Metcalf will likely be sidelined after being labeled week-to-week last Sunday. Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba should take on bigger roles in the passing game.
