Officially placed on IR
The Cardinals placed Ertz (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: This move was inevitable after coach Kliff Kingsbury announced Nov. 16 that Ertz was slated for season-ending surgery for the knee injury he suffered Week 10. But the Cardinals waited until Marquise Brown (foot) was healthy enough to be activated from IR, which came to pass Saturday. With Ertz sidelined, Arizona will turn to Trey McBride as the team's top tight end, with Stephen Anderson and practice-squad member Maxx Williams the other options at the position.

Ruled out for season
Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury confirmed Wednesday that Ertz (knee) is scheduled for surgery and will miss the remainder of the 2022 season, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: A second opinion apparently confirmed that Ertz won't be able to play again this season. Rookie Trey McBride took on a three-down role following Ertz's departure from the Cardinals' Week 10 win over the Rams, but Arizona could also look to get Stephen Anderson involved down the stretch. Ertz is under contract through 2024, with $4 million of his 2023 salary fully guaranteed and another $3 million guaranteed for injury, per Spotrac.com.

Seeking second opinion
Ertz plans to get a second opinion on the knee injury that he suffered Sunday against the Rams, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that the tight end's knee injury is believed to be a season-ending issue, with Weinfuss confirming that Ertz is out indefinitely. For his part, Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury noted that the team expects to have a clearer picture regarding Ertz's status later Monday or Tuesday. In Ertz's looming absence, TEs Trey McBride and Stephen Anderson are in line to see added opportunities in Arizona's passing game in the coming weeks.

Reportedly out for season
Ertz is believed to have suffered a season-ending knee injury Sunday against the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Initially, it was reported that Ertz had avoided a season ender and would be sidelined for multiple weeks, but it appears an MRI on Monday revealed significant damage to his knee. The veteran tight end thus is in line to end the 2022 campaign with 47 receptions on 69 targets for 406 yards and four scores. In his absence, rookie second-round pick Trey McBride likely will operate as the starter, but Stephen Anderson also could see an increased offensive role moving forward.

Multi-week absence expected
Ertz (knee) is expected to miss multiple weeks, but his ACL appears to be intact, though an MRI on Monday will determine the extent of his injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Coach Kliff Kingsbury didn't have an immediate update on Ertz's injury after the game, but it appears Ertz will likely sit out multiple games after hurting his knee in the first quarter of Sunday's 27-17 win over the Rams. Trey McBride will start at tight end while Ertz is sidelined.

Doesn't return Sunday
Coach Kliff Kingsbury didn't have an update on Ertz's (knee) status after Sunday's 27-17 win over the Rams, and the tight end was seen wearing a knee brace in the locker room, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz didn't return to the game after being carted to the locker room in the first quarter. He'll have one extra day to heal up since the Cardinals don't play until MNF against the 49ers in Week 11, but it's unclear if the veteran tight end's currently viewed as day-to-day, week-to-week or worse. If Ertz misses additional time, rookie second-round pick Trey McBride would ascend to the top of Arizona's tight end depth chart.

Suffers knee injury Sunday
Ertz sustained a knee injury during Sunday's game at the Rams, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: On third-and-4 late in the first quarter, quarterback Colt McCoy connected with Ertz for a 12-yard completion. However, Ertz was in noticeable pain right away and walked slowly to the sideline tent before getting carted to the locker room. If he doesn't return, he'll end Week 10 action with just the one catch. Rookie second-round pick Trey McBride and Stephen Anderson are the next tight ends up for the Cardinals.

Scores for second straight game
Ertz caught five of eight targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-21 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: The tight end caught a six-yard strike from Kyler Murray with less than four minutes left in the fourth quarter to bring the Cardinals within a field goal, but the Arizona defense couldn't stop Seattle from answering back. Ertz has found the end zone in back-to-back games, giving him four TDs on the season, and he'll look to extend that streak in Week 10 against a Rams defense that just gave up a game-winning score to Buccaneers rookie TE Cade Otton.

Finds end zone in loss
Ertz brought in four of five targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 34-26 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end was a distant third in receiving yards while working in his usual shorter-area role, but he paid dividends for fantasy managers with an eight-yard scoring grab early in the third quarter. Ertz's trip to the end zone was his first in the last four games, and he'll look to follow it up in a Week 9 divisional showdown against the Seahawks.

Quiet night in Hopkins debut
Ertz brought in two of four targets for 21 yards and recorded a two-point conversion catch in the Cardinals' 42-34 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Analysis: The veteran tight end finished third on the team in targets for the night, but his share paled in comparison to that of the debuting DeAndre Hopkins, who paced the Cardinals with 14 looks. He also likely benefited from the fact newcomer Robbie Anderson logged just a single target after just joining Arizona via trade Monday, but Ertz should continue to enjoy a solid complementary role in the offense moving forward even when Hopkins, Anderson and eventually Marquise Brown (foot) are all on the…read more

Another 10 targets
Ertz recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 19-9 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Ertz tied for the team lead in targets with Rondale Moore, though that was skewed by the early exit of Marquise Brown (ankle). Regardless of the reason, Ertz has now seen double-digit targets in consecutive games -- and for the fourth time in six games. He made more of his opportunity against the Seahawks, with much of his production coming on a 32-yard reception late in the third quarter. Though this was an encouraging performance, target distribution in Arizona could change significantly as…read more

Ineffective on 10 targets
Ertz caught six passes for 48 yards on 10 targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz no doubt hoped to do more damage against his former team, but the Eagles knew to pay close attention and kept Ertz contained. Ertz should have at least one more week of substantial target volume while DeAndre Hopkins remains suspended, and with the hapless Seahawks defense up next it could be a good bounce-back setting for Ertz.

Hauls in second TD
Ertz caught all six of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-16 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The tight end didn't see the double-digit target volume he'd received the last two games, but Ertz was productive with the looks he did get, with his two-yard TD grab in the third quarter kicking off a second-half comeback for the Cardinals and giving him his second touchdown of the season. He could be poised for a revenge game in Week 5 as Arizona attempts to hand his former Philadelphia club its first loss of the year.

Does little with big volume
Ertz caught six of 10 targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Three different Cardinals saw double-digit targets as Kyler Murray set new career highs in attempts and completions, but Ertz was by far the least productive of the trio. His day would have looked a lot better had he been able to haul in a five-yard TD pass from Murray just before halftime, but the ball glanced off his hands. Ertz's 25 targets through three games is second among all tight ends behind Mark Andrews, which should at least give him a solid fantasy floor heading into a Week 4 clash…read more

High catch total in Week 2
Ertz caught eight passes for 75 yards on 11 targets in an overtime win against Las Vegas on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz was a steadying presence for the struggling Arizona passing game, pacing the Cardinals in catches and receiving yardage while tying for the team lead in targets. Ertz may well be Kyler Murray's most reliable target while DeAndre Hopkins is suspended, especially if Marquise Brown (six catches for 68 yards on 11 targets) continues to flop in the WR1 role. The Cardinals face Tennessee in Week 3.

Puts in full practice Thursday
Ertz (calf) practiced in full Thursday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Ertz's DNP on Wednesday may have been a mere rest day after playing 60 percent of the Cardinals' offensive snaps in a Week 1 loss to the Chiefs. He intimated as much Thursday, telling Drake, "I feel great now. The calf, God willing, is behind me, so (I'm) really just focused on being the best I can be on Sunday and find a way to win." Assuming he's over his calf injury, Ertz will look to increase his involvement in the passing game Week 2 after a 2-14-1 performance on four targets in the opener.

No practice Wednesday
Ertz (calf) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Cardinals continue to exercise caution with Ertz, who has been tending to a calf issue since Aug. 4. He was able to suit up Week 1 against the Chiefs, playing 39 of 65 (60 percent) of Arizona's offensive snaps en route to two catches (on four targets) for 14 yards and one touchdown. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury told Weinfuss earlier Wednesday that he believes Ertz will be able to practice in full Thursday, which would mark his first uncapped session of the campaign. In any case, Ertz appears…read more

Grabs Week 1 touchdown
Ertz caught two of four targets for 14 yards and a touchdown and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 44-21 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: The Cardinals' passing game didn't get going until the second half, when the game was well out of hand, and Ertz made both his trips to the end zone in the fourth quarter. The tight end caught 56 passes for 574 yards and three TDs in 11 games after joining Arizona in a trade last season, and with DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) and Rondale Moore (hamstring) both sidelined to begin the 2022 campaign, Ertz figures to be one of Kyler Murray's top targets in the early going.

Active for Week 1
Ertz (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz was sidelined for the entire preseason due to a calf injury sustained in practice Aug. 4. He proceeded to return to the field this week, fitting in a pair of limited sessions around an absence Thursday. The activity was enough for the Cardinals to clear Ertz for Week 1 action, when he'll serve as the team's top pass-catching tight end. In 12 games (including playoffs) with Arizona following his trade from Philadelphia last season, he put together a 59-595-3 line on 85 targets.

Likely to play Sunday
Ertz (calf), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Chiefs, is likely to play barring any pregame setbacks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The veteran tight end looks to have made enough progress in his recovery from a lingering calf issue to be trending in the right direction for Week 1. It will certainly be positive news for Kyler Murray and the Cardinals' offense if Ertz is given the green light, especially with Rondale Moore (hamstring) and DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) out of action. An official word on Ertz's status may not come until the Cardinals release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Questionable for Week 1
Ertz (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz sandwiched limited sessions around Thursday's DNP this week due to the calf injury that forced him out of practice Aug. 4. He missed the entire preseason slate as a result of the issue, but the Cardinals' decision to rest all of their top skill-position talent likely meant he wouldn't have seen action anyway. While Ertz seems to be trending toward active status Sunday, the team is expected to have a better bearing on how much action he'll be able to handle, if any, as of Saturday, per…read more

Officially DNP on Thursday
Ertz (calf) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: After logging a limited session Wednesday, Ertz seemingly has taken a step back as he continues his recovery from the calf issue that sidelined him starting Aug. 4. Due to his veteran status, though, Thursday's absence could be maintenance-related or a veteran day off, so his listing on Friday's practice report will be notable as the Cardinals prepare for Sunday's season opener versus the Chiefs. If Ertz ends up being limited or inactive this weekend, rookie second-round pick Trey McBride and…read more

Not present for practice
Ertz (calf) wasn't spotted on the field during the open portion of Thursday's practice, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Unless Ertz fits in some work in behind the scenes, he'll be listed as a non-participant on the Cardinals' injury report, which marks a step back from his limited activity a day earlier. It's possible Ertz's potential absence is a pre-planned maintenance day, but it nonetheless creates further questions about his availability for Sunday's season opener against the Chiefs.

Back in limited capacity
Ertz (calf) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ertz missed the entire preseason slate due to a calf issue, sitting out all practices since Aug. 4. Just more than one month later, the 10th-year tight end may be putting himself in a position to play Sunday against Kansas City after being termed "day-to-day" by head coach Kliff Kingsbury on Monday, per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site. If Ertz is limited or unable to suit up this weekend, Trey McBride and Maxx Williams (knee) are next up for reps at tight end.

Participating in practice
Ertz (calf) is participating in Wednesday's practice, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ertz is considered day-to-day due to a calf injury that's lingered over the last month, so it's encouraging to see him handling some reps to begin the week of practice. The Cardinals will release their first injury report of the season later Wednesday, when more light will be shed on the veteran tight end's status. It's possible that Ertz could suit up for Sunday's regular-season opener versus the Chiefs even if he's limited in practice leading up to the contest.

Still 'day-to-day'
Coach Kliff Kingsbury called Ertz (calf) "day-to-day" Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz has been tending to a calf injury for the past month, missing practice in the meantime. The Cardinals don't have to post an injury report until Wednesday for Sunday's season opener against the Chiefs, but Kingsbury's comment seems to indicate Ertz will be limited, at best, this week. Next up for reps at tight end for Arizona is rookie second-round pick Trey McBride.

May be close call for Week 1
Arizona head coach Kliff Klingsbury said it will "be close" when he was asked about Ertz's (calf) chances of suiting up Week 1 against the Chiefs, Tyler Drake of 98.7 FM Arizona Sports reports.
Analysis: Kingsbury said the same thing about three other players that have been injured this summer, including wide receiver Rondale Moore (undisclosed). The coach doesn't want to give out injury information this close to the season, but more should be known about Ertz when the Cardinals release official injury reports next week ahead of their season opener.

Doesn't play in preseason
Ertz (calf) didn't play in Saturday's preseason loss at Tennessee.
Analysis: Ertz made an early exit from practice Aug. 4 due to a calf injury and hasn't made any visible progress in the meantime. He and his wife also welcomed their first child during that stretch, so there are numerous reasons he didn't make an appearance in exhibition season.

Coach Kliff Kingsbury told Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports 98.7 on Aug. 12 that the tight end was progressing in his recovery, but Ertz has yet to play during exhibition season, partly due to his health, and partly due to the fact his wife gave birth to a child in the meantime.

Progressing with calf injury
Coach Kliff Kingsbury recently said Ertz (calf) is making progress, Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.
Analysis: Ertz left practice last Thursday (Aug. 4) and hasn't returned since. He won't play in Friday's preseason game against Cincinnati, but there hasn't been any indication the Cardinals are worried about Week 1. Rookie tight end Trey McBride (back) is also banged up, while Maxx Williams (knee) came off the PUP list last week after suffering an ACL tear in Week 5 last season.

Analysis: Until the Cardinals provide an update on the severity of Ertz's calf issue, we'll consider him day-to-day. When healthy, the 31-year-old is the team's clear-cut top pass-catching option in a tight end corps that also includes Trey McBride, Maxx Williams (knee) and Stephen Anderson.

Agrees to three-year contract
Ertz signed a three-year, $31.65 million contract with the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz had a disappointing start to the 2021 campaign with the Eagles but thrived after he was traded to Arizona in mid-October. Across 11 appearances with the Cardinals, he secured 56 of 81 targets for 574 yards and three touchdowns. The 31-year-old's deal keeps him among the highest-paid tight ends in the league.

Racks up 74 receptions in 2021
Ertz posted 74 catches on 112 targets for 763 yards and five touchdowns in 17 games between the Eagles and Cardinals during the 2021 campaign.
Analysis: One day removed from the Eagles' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers, the only NFL team Ertz had ever played for shipped him to the desert after eight-plus campaigns. At the time of his arrival in Arizona, he only had an 18-189-2 line on 31 targets, so his final numbers represent both a big role in a better passing game and a clear sign his skills haven't eroded. The biggest factor in Ertz's revival was an injury to DeAndre Hopkins, who missed eight of the final 10 games including playoffs with…read more

Leads team pass catchers
Ertz caught seven passes for 84 yards on 10 targets against Seattle on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz was the only Arizona pass catcher who could get anything going Sunday, even in what was a favorable matchup for the Arizona passing game. Despite his unceremonious exit from Philadelphia earlier this year, Ertz clearly has a good bit left in the tank, and even as an in-season pickup he almost immediately became one of the most important parts of the Arizona offense.

Ertz gathered in seven of nine targets for 41 yards during Sunday's 25-22 win at Dallas.
Analysis: Ertz continues to be heavily involved in the offense since DeAndre Hopkins (knee) was lost for the rest of the regular season following Week 14. Over the past three games, Ertz has been targeted 33 times, resulting in a 21-169-0 receiving line.

Ertz (hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: After following an LP/LP/FP practice regimen last week, Ertz logged his first uncapped session on his second opportunity during Week 17 prep. With his health not in question ahead of Sunday's game in Dallas, he's poised for another massive workload, as he's coming off double-digit targets in the first two contests since DeAndre Hopkins (knee) was lost for the rest of the regular season. In those pair of appearances, Ertz combined for 14 catches (on 24 targets) for 128 yards.

Still limited by hamstring injury
Ertz (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz has tended to hamstring injuries this season while with both Philadelphia and Arizona, with the current one nagging him for a third straight week. Still, he hasn't missed a game and has increased his snap share in each of the past five games from 76 to 97 percent.

Ertz reeled in eight of 13 targets for 71 yards during Saturday's 22-16 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Since the Cardinals lost DeAndre Hopkins (knee) for the rest of the regular season after Week 14, Kyler Murray has targeted Ertz a whopping 24 times over the last two contests. But the increase in volume has yielded tepid results in the game log, as Ertz has combined for 14 catches for 145 yards and no touchdowns.

Ertz (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's contest versus the Colts, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz kicked off Week 16 prep with back-to-back limited listings on Cardinals injury reports, only to cap it with a full showing at Thursday's practice. He's thus set to take on an Indianapolis defense that has allowed the most total yards (949) and fifth-most touchdowns (eight, tied with three other teams) to tight ends this season.

Ertz (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: This marks the third practice report in a row dating back to last week in which the Cardinals have listed Ertz as limited due to a hamstring issue. He wasn't worse for wear this past Sunday at Detroit, gathering in six off 11 targets for 74 yards. Thursday's report will relay whether he heads into Saturday's game versus the Colts with an injury designation.

Limited listing Tuesday
Ertz (hamstring) is listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: In the first game with DeAndre Hopkins (knee) officially out for the rest of the regular season, Ertz earned a season-high 11 targets in Detroit, which he turned into six catches for 74 yards. The tight end also dealt with a hamstring issue prior to that contest and proceeded to suit up, but his activity will need to be monitored to make sure he's available Saturday versus the Colts.

Targeted 11 times in loss
Ertz (hamstring) caught six of 11 targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 30-12 loss to Detroit.
Analysis: Ertz was a late addition to the injury report Friday but didn't seem hampered by the hamstring injury, ranking second behind Christian Kirk in catches, targets and receiving yards. The 11 targets were a season high for the veteran tight end, who should continue to play a prominent pass-catching role in Week 16 against the Colts with top wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (knee) having been ruled out for the remainder of the regular season.

Playing in Week 15
Ertz (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game at Detroit.
Analysis: A late-week addition to the Cardinals' injury report, Ertz will sidestep the hamstring issue that limited him at Friday's practice and earned him a questionable designation for this contest. Now that he's been confirmed as available for Week 15 action, he'll look to strike against a Lions defense that has allowed nearly 8.0 yards per target (seventh worst in the NFL) but only four total TDs (tied for 18th most) to tight ends in 13 games this season.

Added to report with hamstring injury
Ertz (hamstring) was added to the injury report Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Detroit, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: The end-of-week addition is worrisome for anyone counting on the veteran tight end in a fantasy lineup this week, though it doesn't necessarily mean his hamstring issue is serious. If Ertz doesn't end up playing, the Cardinals will be left with Demetrius Harris and Darrell Daniels at tight end.

Makes five more catches Monday
Ertz gathered in five of seven targets for 42 yards during Monday's 30-23 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Ertz had some practice limitations during Week 14 prep due to a shoulder injury, but he wasn't any worse for wear on game day, earning a snap share (83 percent) in line with his previous four contests (76-81 percent). Kyler Murray again spread the ball around among the Cardinals' key skill-position players, with Ertz tying for third in catches, sitting fourth in targets and finishing fifth in receiving yards on the team.

All clear for divisional showdown
Ertz (shoulder) was not listed on the team's final injury report ahead of Monday's matchup against the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz was a full participant in Saturday's practice after being limited in the previous two, setting the stage for the veteran tight end to get the all-clear ahead of Monday's pivotal contest. The 31-year-old had just one reception in last week's run-heavy win over the Bears, but he previously had at least three catches in each of the last six contests.

Ertz (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Friday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz seems to have picked up the injury during last Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Bears, though he handled his usual snap share (77 percent) in a run-heavy game for Arizona. Consecutive limited practices should put the tight end on track for Monday's game against the Rams, with Saturday representing his last chance at full participation before the crucial NFC West matchup.

Dealing with shoulder issue
Ertz was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report due to a shoulder injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Ertz now has made exactly six appearances apiece for the Eagles and Cardinals this season, and he has 31 targets in both locales. Still, he's produced more in Arizona, with a 23-279-3 receiving line versus 18-189-2 in Philly prior to his midseason trade. Ertz is tending to a shoulder injury Week 14, but he'll have a pair of sessions to bump up to full before the Cards potentially give him a designation for Monday night's game against the Rams.

Quiet in win
Ertz secured one of two targets for 10 yards in the Cardinals' 33-22 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz and the rest of the pass-catching corps had a very quiet afternoon, with the returning Kyler Murray putting the ball up only 15 times. The veteran tight end's downturn notwithstanding, he's already proven an excellent fit in the Cardinals' offense, posting a 22-269-3 line on 29 targets in his first five games in Arizona prior to Sunday.

Dominant production
Ertz caught eight passes for 88 yards and two touchdowns on nine targets against Seattle on Sunday.
Analysis: The Arizona passing game appeared in peril heading into this game due to the absences of Kyler Murray (ankle) and DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring), but Ertz stepped up and abused the Seattle defense even with Colt McCoy at quarterback. It won't be as easy for Ertz to stay consistently involved when Hopkins returns, but at the very least the tight end has shown that he has enough in the tank to step up to a leading role if any of the other pass catchers are missing.

Ertz caught four of six targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Ertz trailed only Christian Kirk for Arizona's lead in all major receiving categories. However, with the Cardinals offense short-handed, there wasn't much production to go around overall. Still, in four games since arriving via trade, Ertz has managed at least three catches each week, offering a decent complement within the passing game.

Meager Week 9 line
Ertz caught three of five targets for 27 yards during Sunday's 31-17 win at San Francisco.
Analysis: Since the Cardinals acquired Ertz from the Eagles in mid-October, he's made three appearances with the team, earning either four or five targets on each occasion. In the first two, he was on the receiving end of passes from Kyler Murray, but with the latter out due to a sprained ankle, veteran Colt McCoy was directing the offense in Week 9. The result was Ertz' worst receiving line as a Card, and McCoy again may be under center Sunday against the Panthers due to Murray's injury.

Four receptions in Week 8
Ertz recorded four catches (on four targets) for 42 yards during Thursday's 24-21 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Ertz' most significant play, a 20-yard catch and run, set up the Cardinals at the Packers' two-yard line for their second TD of the contest. Otherwise, his other three grabs all went for fewer than 10 yards. Through two games with Arizona, Ertz has combined for a 7-108-1 line on nine targets, which is better than all but one two-game stretch with the Eagles on the campaign. The trade from Philadelphia to the desert appears to have revitalized the 30-year-old tight end, who will look to keep it…read more

Scores in Arizona debut
Ertz caught three of five targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-5 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Making his Cardinals debut, Ertz tied A.J. Green for the team lead in receiving yards with most of his damage coming on a 47-yard TD toss from Kyler Murray in the third quarter. The tight end figures to see consistent usage with his new club as he steps in for Maxx Williams (knee), and Ertz will look to continue building chemistry with Murray in Week 8 against the Packers.

Could have extensive role in debut
Ertz is set to serve as the Cardinals' top tight end Sunday against the Texans with Darrell Daniels (hamstring) inactive for the contest.
Analysis: Ertz just arrived in Arizona nine days ago via trade with the Eagles in the wake of Maxx Williams' season-ending knee injury, and he'll be thrust into a major role during his first game in Arizona. The veteran has had a few extra days to get acclimated to the Cardinals offense and will have a favorable matchup against a Texans Cover-2 defense that's allowed a 35-397-5 line to tight ends over the first six contests.

Ertz was in search of a new contract with Philadelphia and has yet to discuss any deal with Arizona.

Ertz brought in four of six targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 28-22 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Ertz paced the Eagles in receptions and was on the receiving end of a five-yard scoring toss from Jalen Hurts in the first quarter. The veteran tight end's touchdown was his first of the season and only his second since 2019, as he served as the top tight end in the absence of Dallas Goedert (reserve/COVID-19).

Top tight end in Goedert's absence
Ertz will serve as the Eagles' clear top tight end in Thursday's game against the Buccaneers with Dallas Goedert (illness) still on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Goedert tested positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday, leaving him little time to clear the necessary protocols and be available Thursday. Indeed, the Eagles didn't activate Goedert before Thursday's 4:00 p.m. ET deadline to do so. Ertz thus figures to be far more active as a receiver than he previously has been this season. Through five contests, he's earned between 50 and 62 percent of the offensive snaps and two and eight targets on each occasion, while Goedert's respective ranges have been 55-74…read more

Clear top TE in Week 6
Ertz is expected to see an uptick in playing time Thursday against the Rams with fellow tight end Dallas Goedert (illness) unlikely to make it back from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to the game, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Goedert was placed on the list Tuesday, after he was revealed to have tested positive for the virus. Because he is vaccinated, he'll be eligible for activation within 10 days, but since he'll still need to be asymptomatic and produce two negative COVID-19 tests at least 24 hours apart, he's doubtful to gain clearance before Thursday's 8:20 p.m. EDT kickoff.

Only one grab in win
Ertz caught one of his six targets for seven yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Ertz just couldn't connect with Jalen Hurts. The silver lining for the Stanford product is that he saw twice as many targets as Dallas Goedert on the day and has at least six in each of the last three games. The two once again played a fairly even number of snaps, with Ertz's 36 just five shy of Goedert's workload.

Season-high 60 yards in loss
Ertz caught six of eight targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 42-30 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: For the second-straight week, Ertz finished in at least a tie for second in every receiving category and has firmly re-established himself in the Philadelphia offense after a slow first two weeks. He played only 35 snaps to Dallas Goedert's 52, and while Goedert got the touchdown, it was his only red-zone target compared to three for the 30-year-old Ertz on the day. Sharing key tight end duties still caps each one's upside, but both have managed to be productive so far.

Ertz caught four of seven targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 41-21 loss to the Cowboys.

That score actually marked Ertz' first end-zone trip since Week 1 of last season, but it was good to see him back involved in Philadelphia's offense, even though he flirted with disaster on a drop that was nearly intercepted for a touchdown early.

Analysis: Ertz also anticipates regaining his pre-2020 form, though he might not have the same role even if that more or less happens. While Ertz's return to the Eagles after some offseason drama puts a dent in Dallas Goedert's breakout case, there's seemingly still a good chance the 26-year-old sees more targets than his 30-year-old counterpart.

Analysis: Even though expectations were that Ertz would be on another team by now, the 30-year-old showed up this preseason ready to go and has been making enough plays in practice to be considered one of the five best skill-position players on the roster. If he remains with the Eagles, he may force coach Nick Sirianni to get him the ball at the expense of Goedert.

Analysis: This doesn't preclude a trade, but the report suggests Ertz won't hold out or otherwise be too disgruntled if he remains with the Eagles. Outplayed by Dallas Goedert during an ineffective and injury-plagued 2020 campaign, Ertz has one season remaining on his contract and appears to be a questionable fit on a rebuilding team with a new coaching staff.

Ertz is still a strong candidate to be traded this offseason, according to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia.
Analysis: Given the chatter earlier this spring, it's a little surprising Ertz is still on the Eagles' roster this late in the offseason. That doesn't means he'll still be with the team for Week 1, but it does suggest trade talks haven't moved along the way the Eagles were hoping. It's also possible the team ultimately decides to keep Ertz, considering Dallas Goedert is the only other tight end on the roster with more than three NFL starts or 23 career receptions.

Offseason move possible
The Eagles are reportedly considering trading or cutting Ertz this offseason, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: This is hardly a surprising announcement considering the Eagles' difficult cap situation and the emergence of a viable replacement in Dallas Goedert. Ertz has just one year remaining on his contract and dramatically declined in 2020 while dealing with a litany of injuries, recording career lows in just about every major statistical category. The 30-year-old could be packaged in the much rumored trade involving Carson Wentz, though such a deal would likely only work for a team flush with cap…read more

Just 16 yards in season finale
Ertz caught three of six targets for 16 yards in Philadelphia's 20-14 loss to Washington on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz led the team in targets but wasn't able to do much with them, as an ineffective Jalen Hurts was benched in favor of Nate Sudfeld to start the second half. It was a fitting end to a disappointing season for the 30-year-old, who enters the offseason with questions abounding as to whether he'll be back in Philadelphia next year. The Eagles can save about $5 million in cap space by trading him and also have a younger, cheaper and very skilled replacement in Dallas Goedert. Ertz finishes the…read more

Set for top TE role Week 17
Ertz is slated to serve as the Eagles' clear No. 1 tight end Sunday against Washington with Dallas Goedert (calf) ruled out for the game, Chris McPherson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Since Ertz returned from injured reserve Week 13 in Green Bay, he and Goedert have logged similar snap shares, but the latter has been the slightly more productive tight end, totaling 16 receptions on 24 targets to Ertz's nine and 21. Along with Goedert, the Eagles will be missing two other passing game contributors in running back Miles Sanders (knee) and receiver DeSean Jackson (ankle), so Ertz could see more looks funneled his way as a result. It's worth noting that quarterback Jalen Hurts…read more

Ties for team lead in targets
Ertz caught three of his seven targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 37-17 loss to Dallas.
Analysis: Ertz saw just one look in the first half and was unable to come down with it. However, once Dallas Goedert left the game in the second half with a calf injury, the 30-year-old became a target magnet, racking up six in the fourth quarter to end up with a share of the team lead. If Goedert cannot return for Week 17's game at home against Washington, Ertz should be a good bet for a similar workload.

Makes two long catches
Ertz caught two of seven targets for 69 yards during Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Ertz finished third on the team in targets on the day but struggled to connect with Jalen Hurts on several occasions. He made the most of his two catches, however, as he delivered gains of 42 and 27 yards to lead the way in receiving yardage. Ertz had caught just four of seven targets for 39 yards over his previous two games since returning to the lineup, so while this performance wasn't his best, it was a step in the right direction with Hurts under center. The veteran will look to generate…read more

Frustrating year continues
Ertz caught two of his three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Saints.
Analysis: All of Ertz's targets came in the first half. The final one appeared to be a catch along the sideline that should have gone for a first down, but he was ruled short of the sticks. Although he played 50 snaps total, he was not heard from again in the box score. Meanwhile, Dallas Goedert played fewer snaps but garnered twice as many looks. The 30-year-old Ertz has seen just 21 targets compared to 30 for Goedert over the four games in which they've both been healthy this year.

Two catches in return
Ertz caught two of his four targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 30-16 loss to Green Bay.
Analysis: After missing five games on IR, Ertz played 27 snaps to Dallas Goedert's 52. While an uptick in playing time can be expected over the rest of the season for the three-time Pro-Bowl tight end, he may struggle to produce useful numbers. Ertz has logged more than 42 receiving yards in a game just once in seven tries this year with only one TD.

Ready to return Sunday
Ertz (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Green Bay.
Analysis: The Eagles opened Ertz's practice window on Nov. 16, but they used more than two weeks to bring him back to the active roster. After logging limited sessions both Wednesday and Thursday, he practiced in full Friday, officially clearing him to return to action. On Sunday, Ertz will be taking on a Packers defense that has allowed 8.1 yards per target (sixth most in the NFL) to tight ends this season.

Should play Sunday
Coach Doug Pederson expressed optimism Ertz (ankle) will be able to play Sunday against the Packers, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: The 30-year-old was activated off injured reserve this week and was a limited practice participant Wednesday and Thursday, so he appears on track to return to the field this weekend. According to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News, Pederson also said the team has "to be smart" about Ertz's usage if he's cleared, given it would be his first game action since Week 6. Dallas Goedert should continue operating as the team's No. 1 tight end for now.

Logs another limited practice
Ertz (ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report.
Analysis: The Eagles activated Ertz from injured reserve Wednesday, and he's followed it up with back-to-back limited sessions. He's seemingly on the cusp of making his first appearance since sustaining a high-ankle sprain Oct. 18 against the Ravens, but his status should continue to be watched to make sure Philly clears him to return Sunday at Green Bay.

Ertz (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Activated from injured reserve earlier Wednesday, Ertz appears to be easing into things as he seeks his first appearance since Week 6. Prior to that point, he wasn't exactly clicking within the Eagles offense, hauling in 24 of 45 targets for 178 yards and one touchdown in six games. Ertz will look to ramp up his activity level as the week goes on.

Activated from IR
The Eagles activated Ertz (ankle) from injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Before suffering a high-ankle sprain Oct. 18, Ertz had caught 24 of his 45 targets for 178 yards and a touchdown in six games. In his absence, Dallas Goedert and Richard Rodgers headed the Eagles' tight-end corps, but the return of Ertz dampens the outlooks for the former two players. Ertz should reclaim a significant share of the offensive snaps after he was on the field for no fewer than 85 percent of the Eagles' plays in any of the first five games of the season, but the poor efficiency he…read more

Analysis: The Eagles never appeared very optimistic about the chances of Ertz suiting up in Seattle, so this news only confirms the expected. The veteran tight end's next chance to play will come in Week 13 versus Green Bay. In the meantime, Dallas Goedert and Richard Rodgers will handle Philadelphia's tight end position.

Appears likely to return Week 12
Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that Ertz (ankle) is "trending in the right direction" to play Monday against the Seahawks, Geoff Mosher of 97.5 The Fanatic Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Since being designated to return from injured reserve Nov. 18, Ertz has experienced no reported setbacks in his recovery from the left high-ankle sprain he sustained Week 6. Assuming he continues to make progress while practicing for a second straight week, Ertz should be on track to put an end to a four-game absence Monday.

Analysis: Ertz returned to practice earlier this week, but he apparently still needs more time to get back to full speed before the Eagles feel comfortable adding him back to the 53-man roster. Look for Dallas Goedert to continue handling the bulk of the reps at tight end Week 11.

Ertz's practice participation suggests it will be the former, though it isn't certain he'll be activated before Sunday's game in Cleveland.

Shifts to IR
The Eagles placed Ertz (ankle) on injured reserve Thursday.
Analysis: Ertz's move to IR comes as little surprise after Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported earlier Thursday that the tight end would be sidelined for 4-to-6 weeks with the high left ankle sprain he sustained in last Sunday's loss to the Ravens. With fellow tight end Dallas Goedert (ankle) also likely to be sidelined through the Eagles' Week 9 bye, Richard Rodgers is expected to serve as the top option at the position for Philadelphia's next two games.

Updated return timetable
Updating a previous report, Ertz (ankle) is now expected to miss 4-to-6 weeks, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Initial estimates on a return from the high-ankle sprain Ertz suffered in Week 6 gave the tight end a 3-to-4 week recovery timetable, but it turns out that may have been a bit too optimistic. It seems he'll be out through the team's Week 9 bye at a minimum, but given this is a contract year for the 29-year-old tight end, Garafolo suggests that Ertz will have little interest in returning early if he's anything less than 100 percent.

Set to miss 3-to-4 weeks
Ertz suffered a high left ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Ravens and is expected miss 3-to-4 weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Ertz left Sunday's game multiple times and was ultimately ruled out in the fourth quarter. The veteran tight end underwent an MRI on Monday that revealed he'll need extended rest before returning to the lineup. The Eagles play the Giants on Thursday and the Cowboys in Week 8 before a Week 9 bye, so there's a good chance that Ertz lands on short-term injured reserve, which would keep him out for a minimum of three weeks.

Will go for MRI
Ertz (ankle) is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday to get a better look at the ankle injury he sustained Sunday against the Ravens, per Jay Glazer of Fox NFL Sunday, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Analysis: Ertz was banged up late as Philadelphia's comeback attempt came up short. A silver lining with this news is that the team is less concerned about Ertz's injury than that of teammate Miles Sanders (knee) -- who's also going in for an MRI -- but Ertz is still questionable at best to dress against the Giants four days from now. If Dallas Goedert (ankle) doesn't come off IR, Richard Rodgers could serve as Philadelphia's top tight end Thursday.

Just one catch in loss
Ertz caught one of his six targets for six yards in Sunday's 38-29 loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: A frustrating year continues for Ertz and his fantasy managers. With a banged-up receiving corps, defenses have been able to key in on him and force someone else to beat them. As a result, the 29-year-old has totaled just 15 yards in his past two contests and has just one game of more than 45 yards all season. Nevertheless, DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and Alshon Jeffery (foot) are close to returning, and that should help Ertz start to raise his production.

The four receptions salvaged what would have been a complete dud for those in PPR formats.

Analysis: Ertz, Miles Sanders (eight targets) and Greg Ward (11 targets) were the clear go-to options Week 3, as no other Eagles player attracted more than four passes throughout the course of the 70-minute contest. In terms of Ertz' fantasy outlook going forward, there is little reason to suggest he will see a decrease in usage given that Dallas Goedert (ankle) is "expected to miss some time," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Erts caught five of his seven targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 37-19 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Ertz has now seen seven targets in each of Philadelphia's first two games of the season, though he has only 60 yards to show for it. Of even greater concern is the fact that Dallas Goedert has seen eight targets in each game for 111 yards so far in 2020. Ertz has a good chance to rebound in a Week 3 matchup against the Bengals, but Goedert's emergence will likely be something to watch all season.

Finds end zone in season opener
Ertz caught three of seven targets for 18 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Ertz got off to a great start, punctuating his team's opening drive with a short touchdown. He finished tied for the team lead in targets but did little the rest of the way as a tough defensive unit clearly keyed in on him in the absence of some of the team's other offensive weapons. Still, it was a great sign for fantasy managers that Ertz found his way into the end zone, and he should be counted on for improved volume next Sunday against the Rams.

Ertz could be a candidate for a contract extension this summer, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Eagles picked up Ertz's 2021 team option back in March, setting him up for cap hits around $12.5 million the next two seasons. An extension for a 29-year-old tight end wouldn't be without risk, but it likely would increase the team's flexibility in the short term. Ertz should be fine for training camp, as he said in January that it would take him about one month to recover from the cracked rib and lacerated kidney that he played through late last season.

Analysis: Ertz was referencing the cracked rib and lacerated kidney that's inhibited him since he picked them up Week 16.

Pair of grabs in final loss
Ertz (ribs) secured two of four targets for 44 yards in the Eagles' 17-9 wild-card loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Ertz battled back from both ribs and kidney injuries to play in the contest, but he ultimately was only able to make a modest impact. The fact Carson Wentz (concussion) was knocked out of the game early certainly didn't help Ertz's cause, and backup Josh McCown turned much more often to Ertz's position mate Dallas Goedert.

Philadelphia will thus look to clinch the NFC East title without the services of two of its top targets in Ertz and wideout Nelson Agholor (knee), who will be sidelined for a fourth straight game. Tight end Dallas Goedert, receiver Greg Ward and running backs Miles Sanders and Boston Scott likely profile as quarterback Carson Wentz's…read more

Analysis: Coach Doug Pederson said earlier Friday that Ertz would take part in the session, but the tight end apparently wasn't feeling good enough to take the field.

In line to practice
Ertz (ribs/back) is expected to practice Friday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: The extent of Ertz's participation won't be known until after the session concludes, but any activity would be an upgrade over the previous two days. Ertz is not out of the woods just yet, and it's possible a final decision on his availability for Sunday's matchup with the Giants won't be made until game day.

Dealing with rib, back injuries
Ertz was held out of practice Thursday due to rib and back injuries, Les Bowen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: After missing some time in the first half of the Eagles' Week 16 win against the Cowboys, Ertz returned to action but made little impact as a receiver the rest of the way, finishing with four catches (on six targets) for 28 yards. On Monday, it was revealed that the tight end suffered a broken rib, which was the sole reason for his absence from practice Wednesday. One day later, the back issue was tacked on the injury report, further clouding Ertz's status. Pederson noted Thursday that Ertz…read more

Not practicing Thursday
Ertz (ribs) won't practice Thursday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: On the plus side, coach Doug Pederson noted that Ertz "is progressing and getting better," which sets the stage for Friday to be a pivotal day with regard to the tight end's chances of playing Sunday against the Giants. Per Tim McManus of ESPN.com, Pederson previously suggested that it's more realistic that Ertz sits out Week 17 and returns from his fractured rib to play in a potential wild-card round game the following week, but the Eagles will see what's he able to do Friday before deciding…read more

DNP on estimated report
The Eagles listed Ertz (ribs) as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: Ertz's listing doesn't come as a major surprise after he reportedly played through a fractured rib in the Eagles' Week 16 win over the Cowboys. As a victory over Washington on Sunday would secure a postseason spot for Philadelphia, Ertz is pushing hard to play in Week 17, though it's unclear if he'll get the green light from doctors and athletic trainers, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. No. 2 tight end Dallas Goedert would take on even heavier volume in the passing game if Ertz is ultimately…read more

Status uncertain for Week 17
Offensive coordinator Mike Groh said Tuesday that it's "too early" to know if Ertz (ribs) will factor into the Week 17 game plan, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
Analysis: Ertz sustained a fractured rib in the first quarter of this past Sunday's win against the Cowboys. While he returned to the field in time for a two-minute drill before halftime and closed out the contest, he managed just four catches for 28 yards and no TDs on six targets. In an Eagles receiving corps devoid of most of its top options at wide receiver, Ertz and Dallas Goedert have been among Carson Wentz's favorite regular targets the past few weeks. Ertz could set the tone for his availability…read more

Tending to fractured rib
Ertz sustained a fractured rib in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Cowboys and will undergo further testing Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: After taking a hard shot to the ribs in the first quarter, Ertz gutted it out through the painful injury, playing 82 percent of the Eagles' offensive snaps en route to making four catches for 28 yards on six targets. The adrenaline might have helped Ertz carry on in the crucial win, but the Eagles will await the results of follow-up tests before determining his fate for the Dec. 29 regular-season finale versus the Giants. If Ertz can't play next weekend or if his playing time is limited due to…read more

Getting tests for rib injury
Coach Doug Pederson confirmed that Ertz will undergo further testing after the tight end sustained a rib injury in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Cowboys, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: Ertz briefly exited in the first quarter after taking a shot to the ribs from Dallas' Xavier Woods, but he returned just before intermission and played the entire second half. However, despite playing 59 of the Eagles' 72 snaps (82 percent) on the day, Ertz was a lesser version of himself, converting six targets into four catches for 28 yards. The Eagles will get a better handle on the extent of Ertz's injury while he undergoes more tests Monday, but his availability for the Week 17 matchup…read more

Limited production in Sunday's win
Ertz (ribs) caught four of six targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: The tight end missed most of the first half after taking a shot to the ribs, but he returned toward the end of the second quarter and stayed in the lineup after halftime. Dallas Goedert took his place as the primary option for Carson Wentz, however, seeing double Ertz's targets and catching Wentz's only TD pass. Given that he was able to play through the rib issue Sunday, Ertz will likely suit up in Week 17 as the Eagles try to clinch the NFC East title, but it wouldn't be a surprise if Goedert…read more

Ertz (ribs) returned to Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Stays hot in important win
Ertz caught five of 10 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-27 win over Washington.
Analysis: Ertz was shaken up in the first half after taking a high hit that was flagged for a personal foul, but he stayed in the game and paced the Eagles in targets while tying Greg Ward for the team lead in receiving yards. His two-yard touchdown gave the Eagles a 24-21 lead with 9:59 to play. The star tight end is in the midst of a terrific stretch that's seen him total 47 catches for 464 yards and five touchdowns over the past six games. Ertz should stay busy in the critical Week 16 meeting with the…read more

Late touchdowns win game
Ertz caught nine of 13 targets for 91 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 23-17 overtime win over the Giants.
Analysis: Ertz stepped up with Philadelphia's pass-catching options depleted, scoring both the game-tying and game-winning touchdowns. The tight end led the Eagles in all major receiving categories, grabbing a team-long, 30-yard reception for good measure as well. Should Philly's receiving corps remain ravaged by injury in Week 15 versus Washington, Ertz would figure to continue playing a prominent role, but considering he's posted at least nine catches for 90 yards in four of his last five outings, he's…read more

Cleared for Week 13
Ertz (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Ertz was only able to practice once this week in a limited fashion, but the Eagles signed off on him playing after he completed a pregame workout earlier Sunday without incident. Philadelphia hasn't indicated that Ertz will be limited at all in Week 13, but if he is, Dallas Goedert would stand to pick up more reps at tight end than usual.

Ertz (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rapoport's report essentially aligns with the sentiment about Ertz's status following Friday's practice, when teammate Dallas Goedert told Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia that he expects Philadelphia's top tight end to play. An official decision on Ertz's availability will be made around 11:30 a.m. ET, when the Eagles will release their seven-man inactive list.

Gets questionable tag for Week 13
The Eagles list Ertz (hamstring) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Ertz will unsurprisingly take an injury designation into the weekend after the hamstring issue caused him to turn in just one limited practice this week. Despite Ertz's lack of on-field reps leading up to Sunday, the Eagles are apparently optimistic the tight end will be good to go for gameday, as teammate Dallas Goedert suggested would be the case Friday when he spoke to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. Ertz has garnered at least 11 targets in each of the Eagles' past three games, but…read more

Expected to play Week 13
Teammate Dallas Goedert said he expects Ertz (hamstring) to play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Ertz was held out of practice Wednesday and Thursday but returned to the field Friday. It isn't clear if Ertz was a limited or full participant in the session, and he'll likely be listed as questionable even if the Eagles fully expect him to play this weekend. For what it's worth, Ertz confirmed that he's on track to suit up, saying "See ya Sunday" when he walked past reporters, per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Will practice Friday
Ertz (hamstring) will practice Friday, and there's growing optimism that he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It won't be clear until after Friday's practice how much Ertz was able to do in the Eagles' final session of Week 13, but even if he goes down as a limited participant, that would represent a step up from what he did either of the previous two days. The Eagles will reveal whether Ertz carries a designation into Sunday shortly after practice concludes, but a final call on his availability may not be made until game day.

Receives 'DNP' on Thursday's report
Ertz (hamstring) was estimated as a non-participant on Thursday's practice report.
Analysis: The Eagles have held just one session this week, but Ertz didn't join his teammates on the field Wednesday and instead worked out on the side with the training staff. Through six-plus NFL seasons, he's missed just five of a possible 107 games, and it's unclear if there's about to be a sixth. Friday's report should provide an inkling of Ertz's odds to play Sunday in Miami.

Tending to hamstring injury
Ertz missed Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: During the portion of the session open to the media, Ertz worked out a side field, per Tim McManus of ESPN.com. The lack of activity with the team manifested itself as a "DNP" on the Eagles' first report for Week 13, leaving Ertz as the highest-profile player on the roster to track as the week goes on. Behind Ertz, Dallas Goedert is next up at tight end.

Working on the side Wednesday
Ertz was seen working out on the side during the portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Eagles haven't previously revealed that Ertz is tending to an injury, but the team's first practice report of Week 13 will provide an explanation for why the tight end wasn't participating with the main group. Given that Ertz has logged 36 targets over the last three contests, it's possible that the Eagles are simply giving the 29-year-old some much-needed rest.

Takes advantage of 14 targets
Ertz hauled in 12 of his 14 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 12 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Ertz was one of Carson Wentz's few healthy receivers and took advantage by drawing 14 targets -- his second-highest total of the season. Nearly all of that production came in second half, as he registered just three catches for 19 yards in the first two quarters. Nevertheless, Ertz now has at least nine catches and 90 yards in three consecutive contests. Though it appears Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) have the potential to return next week against the Dolphins, their…read more

Resurgence continues in loss
Ertz caught nine of 11 targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: The catches, targets and yards were all team highs. Carson Wentz didn't have a lot of time in the pocket against the Pats' pass rush, particularly after right tackle Lane Johnson (head) left the game, and as a result Eagles' tight ends ended up hauling in 12 of Wentz's 20 completions as he had to get rid of the ball quickly. Ertz has now caught 18 passes on 22 targets for 197 yards and a TD over the last two games, and his hot streak could continue Week 12 against a Seahawks defense that's…read more

Torches Bears for 103 yards
Ertz caught nine of 11 targets for 103 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 22-14 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Ertz led the team in targets and was the only Eagles player with more than 39 receiving yards. He caught a beautiful 25-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter, doubling his season output in that category. This was Ertz's first 100-yard game since Week 16 of last season, giving fantasy owners a glimpse of the tight end they expected on draft day. Coming off his best game of the season, Ertz will turn his attention to a Week 11 home matchup with the Patriots following Philadelphia's bye.
