About Zach Ertz

So Zach Ertz is this veteran tight end who's been around the league for over a decade now, currently playing for Washington. He's one of those reliable pass-catching tight ends who can still produce even in his 30s, and last season he put up solid numbers with 66 catches for 654 yards and 7 touchdowns. What's interesting is he's really embraced being the veteran leader on a young Washington squad, saying he feels rejuvenated playing with all that young talent around him. Since he's been in the league so long, he doesn't have traditional rookie cards, but collectors still chase his early Philadelphia stuff and now his Washington cards, especially any numbered parallels or autographs since he's got that proven track record.

Being the elder statesman on a Washington team loaded with young talent had Zach Ertz stoked to return for his 13th NFL season in 2025. "I had so much fun this year," he said. "I feel rejuvenated. I feel young. He played in a season-high 34 games. He played in 13 games. He played in a season-high 34 games. TD 7 53 AVG 9.9 10.4 YDS 654 8088 REC 66 775 YEAR 2024 NFL TOTAL S TEAM COMMANDERS

Dad’s Take on Zach Ertz

Look at this guy running around like he's still 25 when he's clearly been collecting social security for half a decade! That burgundy uniform can't hide the fact that you're moving like you need a walker, Ertz. Just because you "feel rejuvenated" doesn't mean the rest of us can't see you wheezing through that facemask, grandpa!
