Ertz hasn’t scored a touchdown since Week 7, but he has remained a useful fantasy player due to his strong floor. Ertz only has three Top 12 fantasy tight end finishes, but only two games outside the Top 25. And recently he’s seen a big influx of targets, with 18 in the last two games.
Zach Ertz makes NFL history, moving past Shannon Sharpe on all-time receptions list in the Commanders 27-26 OT loss vs. the Broncos.
