Eagles TE Zach Ertz is headed to France to watch his wife in the World Cup

Come on guys. It’s the World Cup. Just saying or reading those words should be enough to send an adrenaline rush through you. For Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, this one has some extra special significance.

’86’ will be heading to France to see his wife compete for what equates as the Super Bowl of soccer. Or should we say futbol? Well, you get the point. No one’s intention is to be disrespectful, but let’s be honest. To the NFL fan, the word football can’t be said without thinking about shoulder pads, a helmet, and an oblong ball.
