Zach Ertz, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Return Wednesday
4 years agoThe Philadelphia Eagles activated tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) off Injured Reserve on Wednesday and activated wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside off the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Right tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) was also put on IR. Ertz has missed the last five games with a high-ankle sprain, but he's been practicing the last two weeks. The Eagles are likely to favor 12 and 13 personnel groupings with Ertz back in the lineup. Dallas Goedert and Richard Rodgers have been the team's top pass-catchers since they returned from the bye in Week 10. Ertz's return will hurt Goedert's fantasy ceiling, making both Ertz and Goedert more of low-end TE1s heading into Week 13 against the Packers. Green Bay has allowed just three touchdowns to tight ends this year, and Ertz hasn't topped 70 receiving yards in a game with just one TD on the season.
