ST.Eagles Star Dallas Goedert Shares Heartwarming News During Bye Week — Fans Celebrate His Biggest Win Yet
Philadelphia, PA – November 2, 2025
While most of the Philadelphia Eagles enjoyed a quiet bye week to rest and reset, tight end Dallas Goedert shared a far more personal kind of victory — one that had nothing to do with football.
In an emotional Instagram post, Goedert announced that he and his longtime girlfriend Aria Meyer are expecting their first child. The photo, a simple black-and-white shot of the couple smiling as Goedert cradled Meyer’s baby bump, was captioned with just two words: “Mom & Dad.”
The post quickly flooded with love from teammates, NFL players, and fans across the league. Fellow Eagle Jalen Hurts dropped a comment of congratulations, while others praised Goedert for “winning both on and off the field.”
Goedert and Meyer have been together for years, dating back to their time growing up in South Dakota. Meyer, a registered nurse, has been a steady presence through Goedert’s NFL journey — from his days as a small-school standout at South Dakota State to becoming one of the most reliable tight ends in the NFC.

For the Eagles star, the announcement comes at a moment of balance — personally and professionally. Philadelphia enters the second half of the season sitting atop the NFC East, while Goedert himself has been a key piece in the team’s offense, known for his toughness and leadership on and off the field.
Though the timing fell during the team’s bye week, the news resonated far beyond football. Fans took to social media calling it “the most wholesome Eagles update of the year,” celebrating not just a player’s milestone, but a man’s new chapter.
As one fan put it best in the comments: “He’s got championships to chase — and now, a little one to make proud.”
