Rising Eagles star Zach Ertz gets a helping hand from legendary tight end

There are very few people who have played the tight end position better than Tony Gonzalez.

From 1997 to 2013 Gonzalez tore up NFL fields all over the country, going for over fifteen thousand receiving yards and 111 touchdowns in an incredible 270 games.

Gonzalez could probably still start at tight end for many teams but he’s hung up the cleats and now he’s passing on what he’s learned to the next generation, specifically Zach Ertz of the Philadelphia Eagles.
