This season, the Philadelphia Eagles hope to make another Super Bowl appearance. Could they be intending to bring along a former Eagles champion?
The Arizona Cardinals accepted Ertz’s waiver request in order for him to join a contender this season. The three-time Pro Bowler cleared waivers on Friday and will be able to choose his future destination.
Ertz has already been connected to three AFC contenders, according to reports. According to ESPN analyst Adam Schefter, the Eagles are likely to be in the mix for the tight end’s services.
Ertz is also just a few games away from becoming the Eagles’ all-time leading scorer. He needs 11 catches to break the team receptions record of 589 held by Hall of Fame wide receiver Harold Carmichael.
Dallas Goedert is the Eagles’ primary tight end right now. Ertz assisted Goedert in his development until the former Super Bowl winner was dealt to the Cardinals in 2021.
Ertz is presently out with a quad injury suffered in Week 7, but he is anticipated to return before the end of the season. Before the injury, he had 27 catches for 187 yards and a touchdown.
From 2016 to 2019, Ertz was the Eagles’ leading receiver. In 9 seasons with Philadelphia, he has 569 catches for 6,267 yards and 38 touchdowns.
