After two seasons in the NFL, Eagles tight end Zach Ertz wanted to spend this offseason seeking outside advice on how he can get better. So he started with the one of the greatest players ever to play the position: Tony Gonzalez.
Ertz had never had any contact with Gonzalez before, but he contacted him in the spring and was pleased to hear that Gonzalez was willing to have him come for a visit.
“I got his number from one of our tight end coaches — he played with Tony when they were in Atlanta together — and I just cold texted him,” Ertz writes on his website.
