Zach Ertz is reuniting with the Philadelphia Eagles. On Tuesday, September 22, the Eagles took to X to officially announce the move with a welcome-back post. “We’ve signed TE Zach Ertz,” the Eagles’ X account wrote.

Zach Ertz is returning to the City of Brotherly Love. The veteran tight end has signed with the Philadelphia Eagles, with ESPN's Adam Schefter reporting he is expected to join the practice squad. He likely will see the field before long with Dallas Goedert expected to miss several weeks after suffering a sprained MCL on Sunday.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz told reporters on Thursday, while accepting his Man of the Year nomination, that he suffered tears to both his ACL and MCL, requiring surgery to repair both ligaments.

The Ertz signing had been rumored for weeks and seemed possible since the offseason. Injuries to Goedert and Eli Stowers have made Ertz more attractive, and he fits a specific role as a pass-catching tight end for an offense that could use one.
