The Packers could’ve traded for Zach Ertz.

Once again, strengthening the offense before the trade deadline is something for Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst to consider.

One option could’ve been to trade for Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz and, before Ertz got injured, it could’ve become a reality.

According to Ed Kracz of Eagle Maven for Sports Illustrated, the Packers were one of two teams that made an offer for Ertz before he was placed on injured reserve.

Well, that’s quite significant.
