Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz should be viewed as a low-end TE1 heading into Week 10 despite his poor showing last weekend. Facing the Giants, Ertz had his worst showing of the season as he brought in his lone target for just five yards. However, during Weeks 6 through 8, Ertz scored at least double-digit PPR points in each of them and averaged seven targets per game. This weekend, even though he will be facing a tough Pittsburgh defense, he should be viewed as a reliable option in deeper formats, given the consistent volume he has seen throughout a majority of the campaign.

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 6.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz is coming off his worst game of the season but should be more involved in the passing game this week. He can be considered a low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper fantasy leagues.

Nov 3 3:43pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz caught one pass for five yards against the New York Giants in Week 9. He was targeted one time during the game.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz has been a solid part of the passing game this season but was not involved against the Giants. He should see a bigger workload next week but may only be a No. 2 tight end in most leagues.

From TheHuddle

Nov 3 3:40pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz took the backseat in Week 9 as he brought in his lone target for five yards. This was his lowest output of the season, and snapped a three-game streak where he topped double-digit PPR points in each outing. Fantasy managers should not be overly concerned, as the Commanders were in the lead the entire afternoon and did not need Jayden Daniels to push the ball downfield as often. The veteran tight end remains a low-end TE1 heading into Week 10 as he has averaged 7.3 targets in his past four games entering Week 9.

From RotoBaller

Nov 1 7:40pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz has emerged as the No.2 option for Jayden Daniels and should continue to be viewed as a solid TE1 in all formats in Week 9. Since Week 5, Ertz has seen at least five targets in each game, with a season-high of 11 coming last weekend in their victory over the Chicago Bears. During this span, Ertz has scored double-digit PPR points in all but one game. Without a reliable No.2 wideout, fantasy managers should expect Ertz to continue seeing reliable targets weekly. Even though the New York Giants have allowed the fourth-fewest PPR points to opposing TEs, he remains a solid tight end in all formats due to his safe volume.

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 30.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz is coming off one of his best games of the season and should see a good amount of targets again in Week 9. He can be a low-end No. 1 tight end in most fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Oct 27 11:03pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz was good for seven receptions for 77 yards on 11 targets in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz has turned back the clock, going for four or more receptions in three straight outings, and his 77 yards were his most since going for seven grabs and 84 yards on Jan. 9, 2022 as a member of the Arizona Cardinals. He is worth a look as a low-end TE1 in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams.

From TheHuddle

Oct 27 7:50pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz led the team in receptions in their victory over the Chicago Bears. Ertz brought in seven of his season-high 11 targets for 77 yards. Since struggling during Weeks 3 through 5, Ertz has now scored double-digit PPR points in each of the past three games and has seen at least five targets and four receptions in each of them. Without a proven No.2 wideout, the veteran tight end has emerged as a productive option in this offense and should be viewed as a high-floor TE1 going forward. Next week, Ertz will face the New York Giants, who have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends.

From RotoBaller

Oct 25 9:10pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz remains a low-end TE1 heading into Week 8 as he faces the Chicago Bears. Last weekend, Ertz found the end zone for the first time in his Washington career last weekend and brought in four of his five targets for 40 yards. Over the past two weeks, Ertz has caught four passes in each game and seen at least five targets in each of them. Without a proven No.2 wideout, the veteran tight end has emerged as a consistent option in the Washington air attack. He remains a low-end TE1 on Sunday due to the reliable volume he has seen on a weekly basis.

Oct 23 3:43pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 23.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz picked up his first touchdown of the season last week and has been targeted at least five times in each of the last three games. He should receive a similar workload this week and could be a low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper leagues.

From TheHuddle

Oct 20 10:13pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz posted four receptions for 40 yards and a touchdown on five targets in Week 7 against the Carolina Panthers.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz linked up with backup QB Marcus Mariota, who was filling in for the injured QB Jayden Daniels (ribs). The 33-year-old tight end has eight catches for 108 yard and the score in the past two games, and three or more catches in six of his seven games. He is right there in that low-end TE1 or high-end TE2 neighborhood in PPR fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams. The Commanders host the Bears in Week 8.

From TheHuddle

Oct 20 6:40pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz caught four of his five targets for 40 yards and a score in their victory over the Carolina Panthers. This was the first time Ertz found the end zone in the DMV. The veteran tight end became a key part of the Washington offense once Marcus Mariota replaced Jayden Daniels (ribs). Even though Ertz was productive with Daniels, he seemed to have a strong connection with Mariota, as he finished with the third-most targets and second-most yards on the team. The 33-year-old has now tallied double-digit PPR points in back-to-back games and remains a solid low-end TE1 heading into Week 8.

From RotoBaller

Oct 18 5:10pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz led the Washington pass catchers in yards last weekend and should continue to be viewed as a low-end TE1. After scoring just 5.2 and 3.0 PPR points during Weeks 4 and 5, the veteran tight end got back on track in Baltimore and eclipsed double-digit points for the second time this season with 68 total yards. Ertz has been a safety valve for rookie QB Jayden Daniels but has taken the backseat on some occasions as Daniels has begun to push the ball downfield more often to his receivers. Nonetheless, given his offensive situation and matchup against the Carolina Panthers, who have allowed the 25th-most points to opposing tight ends, Ertz sets up as a high-floor TE1 option.

Oct 16 3:23pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 16.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz is coming off a season-high 68 yards in the last game and has been targeted at least five times in three of the last four games. He should see a similar workload this week but may only be a No. 2 fantasy tight end in most leagues.

From TheHuddle

Oct 13 4:33pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz caught four passes for 68 yards against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 6. He was targeted five times during the game.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz posted a season-high 68 yards this week but has been targeted at least five times in three of the last four games. He could be a possible low-end No. 1 tight end in deeper fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Oct 13 3:40pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz caught four of his five targets for a team-high 68 yards in their loss to the Baltimore Ravens. This was a nice bounce-back effort for the veteran tight end, as he caught just two passes last weekend. From Weeks 1-to-4, Ertz caught at least three passes. Despite the lack of upside, fantasy managers should continue to count on Ertz for a reasonable "floor" output every week, making him a low-end TE1 in deeper formats. The 33-year-old should have another productive game next weekend when the Commanders play host to the Carolina Panthers, who have a struggling secondary.

From RotoBaller

Oct 11 5:40pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz caught a season-low two passes for ten yards last weekend but has a great opportunity to bounce-back facing the Baltimore Ravens. Even though Ertz had his worst game on the scoresheet, he saw eight targets. From Weeks 1 to 4, Ertz averaged four targets in each game with a solid 37.5 yards. With the Commanders lacking a proven No.2 option in the passing attack, Ertz should continue to remain productive every week. Facing a Ravens defense that has allowed the 26th-most points to opposing tight ends makes Ertz a low-end TE1 with upside.

From RotoBaller

Oct 9 3:23pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 9.

Fantasy Spin: Ertz received a season-high eight targets in the last game but finished with only 10 yards. He has been held under 40 yards in four of the five games this season and probably is only a No. 2 fantasy tight end.

From TheHuddle

Oct 6 5:23pm CT

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz ended up with two receptions for 10 yards despite a game-high tying eight targets in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns.

Fantasy Spin: Rookie QB Jayden Daniels looked for Ertz early and often, but they were unable to get on the same page. The catch total and yardage total were both season lows. He has been a decent TE2 in most leagues of 12 or more teams. He'll look to bounce back in Week 6 in Baltimore.

From TheHuddle

Oct 6 4:00pm CT

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz tied for a team-high eight targets today but could only bring in two for a mere 10 yards. This was his lowest output of the campaign regarding receptions and yards. The Commanders had a sizeable lead through most of the afternoon, keeping the ball on the ground and limiting Ertz's production. However, it was promising to see Ertz get several looks from his QB. The veteran remains a high-end TE2 heading into their Week 6 tilt with the Baltimore Ravens.
