Eagles Evaluating Practice Squad Elevation for Zach Ertz Ahead of Monday Night

Zach Ertz returned to the Philadelphia Eagles this week, re-signing to the practice squad and reclaiming his old No. 86 jersey. Team leadership is evaluating whether to elevate the 35-year-old veteran tight end for Monday night's matchup against the Chicago Bears. The move provides depth with starter Dallas Goedert sidelined by an MCL sprain and Eli Stowers on injured reserve. Ertz needs just 11 receptions to surpass Harold Carmichael's franchise record of 589.
