Zach Ertz breaks silence following offseason filled with trade rumors

For the first time since the end of last season we had a chance to hear from tight end Zach Ertz about his return to Philly, how he handled the offseason, and a bit about his physical and mental health heading into the 2021 NFL season.

Ertz opened by acknowledging a lot has happened this offseason but he’s excited to be in Philly and is putting all of that behind him. He went on to say that this is the most fun he’s had coming to work — enjoying his time with the new coaching staff, the young players, and the vets — and the tight end said it’s been freeing to just focus on football.
