Johnny

Mundt

Goedert exited in the second quarter of Sunday’s game and did not return to the field. The 31-year-old tight end will undergo an MRI to confirm the severity of his injury, but it sounds like he could be at risk of missing some time. With rookie tight end Eli Stowers (quad) already on injured reserve, veteran Johnny Mundt would be in line to see an increased role after leading all Eagles tight ends in snaps (49) and routes run (20) against the Titans. Mundt caught just two passes for eight yards and will not be on the fantasy radar for Week 3 against the Bears even if he does draw the start.

Kempski believes Mundt’s blocking ability keeps him in the TE2 spot for now. He also notes that “Stowers was quiet during spring practices, and even seemed limited in practice due to an injury,” sporting a sleeve on one leg. Missing spring practice reps would certainly slow down a rookie’s development. Regardless, if Stowers is going to show up in the box score, he will likely do so late in the 2026 season. For now, treat him as a worthwhile best ball TE3, and a name to know for late-season waiver wire purposes in re-draft.

Mundt was released by the Jaguars on Tuesday and lasts just one day as a free agent with the Eagles adding him to their tight end room. His addition is unlikely to impact how the Eagles handle re-signing Dallas Goedert as Mundt is primarily a blocking tight end. The 31-year-old will be a depth piece and likely used heavily in the Eagles’ blocking attack.

Mundt is a nine-year veteran with 74 receptions for 658 yards and four touchdowns in his career. Primarily a blocking tight end, Mundt’s best years were his three seasons with the Vikings, playing in all 51 games and catching all four of his career touchdowns in that span. He will have some interest from teams looking to add a blocking tight end to their room this offseason.

He was a surprise DNP on Friday as well. Strange is still in his 21-day window so there’s no need to push it if he’s not going to play this week. Hunter Long (hip/knee) was also ruled out today, leaving Johnny Mundt as the primary Jaguars tight end in Week 11.

He broke a tackle from Myles Bryant on his lone reception and found a first down. Neither Hunter Long nor Brenton Strange should feel very threatened when they return from injury. Obviously, don’t use Mundt in fantasy football.

Entering his age-31 season, Mundt will look to establish the Grant Udinski culture in Jacksonville. Mundt had 55 receptions over three years in Minnesota and will be a fantasy non-factor. He’s being paid to block.

Mundt had a 30-yard gain called back by holding in the third quarter. He has been serving as the Vikings’ starting tight end with T.J. Hockenson on the PUP list, but that should come to an end with the latter likely to return in Week 7. Mundt should not be rostered in even the deepest of fantasy leagues.

You don’t need to roster him. Josh Oliver went catchless. The Vikings are on bye next week, and Mundt will be working on his blocking rather than his receiving.

Mundt caught a short touchdown from Sam Darnold between two defenders in the fourth quarter to put the game away for Minnesota. Mundt now has three targets in each of the Vikings’ three regular season games. He’s still splitting tight end snaps with Josh Oliver.
