Dallas Goedert and the Philadelphia Eagles are hungry for another Super Bowl.
The 30-year-old tight end and his teammates are only four months removed from winning a Super Bowl, easily defeating the Kansas City Chiefs, 40-22, in Super Bowl LIX. However, they’re back at work again, recently completing minicamp and eager to repeat as back-to-back champs.
“I think the biggest challenge is the sustained success part of it, and I think we’ve been doing a really good job of talking to different people and figuring out how they were able to continue to have success after they won a championship,” says Goedert in a one-on-one interview. “The biggest thing is just being where your feet are, not relying on what you did in the past, but what are you currently doing to improve?”
Goedert says the team is “more hungry” despite avenging their Super Bowl loss against the Chiefs from Super Bowl LVII. It’s a big reason why the veteran tight end was so eager to return to the Eagles after Philadelphia entertained trade offers for him in the offseason. The two sides were eventually able to agree to a reworked deal that ensures Goedert will be back for the 2025 season.
“As a team, we’ve been doing a great job this off season, it doesn’t seem like anybody’s staying on the Super Bowl, the fact that we won it,” says Goedert. “Everybody’s almost more hungry, because we did get there, because we did win it, we know what it takes to get back. I think we’ve been doing a good job in that aspect.”
It won’t be easy considering the Eagles face the fourth-toughest schedule in the NFL, with 11 of their 17 games during the 2025 season being against playoff opponents.
“The hardest part is, every team we play every week, they want to beat the last year’s Super Bowl champion, and that’s what they’re trying to do,” says Goedert. “That’s what we’re going to have to focus on, is just making sure we’re where our feet are, and that we have the same process that got us to where we were last year.”
As they look to repeat as Super Bowl champs, Philadelphia will literally match up against the NFL’s best from last season. They’ll face four playoff teams in the first five weeks, including the Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They’ll also match up against the 14-3 Minnesota Vikings, the 13-4 Buffalo Bills and the 15-2 Detroit Lions during the 2025 season.
“We can’t look ahead and we can’t say we’re going to go back, because that’s when you’re going to get bit in the butt,” says Goedert. “We just got to make sure we go through our process the same way we have in the past and continue to improve and evolve and do the things that are important to winning.”
Goedert mentions how Jalen Hurts – who won Super Bowl MVP – was already back on the field almost immediately after winning the Super Bowl because he’s that determined to win it again. Both Hurts and Goedert spoke to six-time NBA champion Michael Jordan about what it takes to keep winning.
“Jalen went back to throwing right away, and he said it was for his own sanity,” says Goedert of Hurts. “He hung out with Michael Jordan, and I asked him about the same thing to sustain success, about how he was able to do it multiple times, multiple years in a row. When you have leaders like that that don’t care about what happened last year, they’re looking forward to it. They believe their best is yet to come.”
The former second-round draft pick says it makes “everything easier” when your teammates are all hungry to continue winning.
“It makes everything easier, and it makes you want to be right there with them,” says Goedert. “Continue to improve, get better, get stronger, get faster. It’s looking good for us this year, and we just got to make sure we keep taking it day by day.”
Dallas Goedert Partners With Amgen For Plaque Psoriasis
The South Dakota native is partnering with Amgen to speak on behalf of his experiences with plaque psoriasis. Goedert has dealt with the skin condition since he was 10 years old and says using their oral medication has helped alleviate the symptoms.
“I’ve been dealing with plaque psoriasis ever since I was 10 years old, and it causes rough, flaky patches on your skin, but it actually starts from within your body,” says Goedert. “For me, being a football player, you want to put all your focus on the game, the game plan, and you don’t want to be distracted – which plaque psoriasis kind of does. When plaque psoriasis showed up, I would put topicals on them, which were greasy and messy. After talking to my doctor I found something that treats from within and it’s worked for my lifestyle.”
Goedert has been using Amgen since last year and will be speaking about it at Tight End University in the coming days in Nashville, Tennessee.
“I’m on an Amgen medicine, and I’m trying to spread the word about plaque psoriasis,” says Goedert. “It’s been an incredible partnership with Amgen, and it’s been working for me. I’m just happy to raise a little bit of awareness for something that has impacted my life so much.”
