Zach Ertz Frustrated By Contract Talks
4 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, who recently broke off contract extension talks with the team, said that "it's been frustrating at times." Ertz said he wants to remain in Philadelphia, but "I don't know for sure if that feeling is mutual." The 29-year-old tight end wants a contract sooner than later, but the Eagles seem to be in no rush with two years still left on Ertz's current contract. As the Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane points out, the elephant in the room is teammate Dallas Goedert, who saw his role expand next to Ertz in 2019. That's the elephant in the fantasy room as well. Ertz is a top-five fantasy tight end for Week 1 against Washington, but his ceiling has lowered with Goedert taking away some of his targets.
