Zach Ertz, the only player to ever score a game-winning touchdown in the Super Bowl for the Philadelphia Eagles, is back in the NFC East!
But he is not back with his former team.
Instead, Ertz is reportedly signing with the Washington Commanders. The one-year contract is said to be worth up to $5 million. It remains to be seen how much of that figure is truly guaranteed but the annual value makes him the 22nd-highest paid tight end ahead of NFL free agency.
At first glance, it’s weird that Ertz wanted to join an organization that’s long been a dumpster fire and tied for the second-worst record in the NFL last season.
