Record-breaking season for Eagles tight end Zach Ertz

By JD PELEGRINO

In 2018, Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz established himself early on in the season as one of the league’s top talents, especially at the TE position. Ertz entered his sixth NFL season in 2018 out of Stanford. At the conclusion of the 2017 season, Ertz was known as one of the most dominant TE’s in the league, he tallied: 74 receptions, 110 targets, 824 yards, eight touchdowns, and a career-high at the time 46 catches for first downs. Ertz set out on a journey during OTA’s and the pre-season to set a new mark for himself, but more importantly to bring his team to another Super Bowl and win.
