The Zach Ertz era could continue in Philadelphia, as veteran reporter and radio personality Howard Eskin has reported that the star tight end will report for training camp.
Ertz, 30, had been expected to be traded or released after the worst season of his career and plenty of discourse surrounding his contract. In 2020, the talented tight end logged just 36 catches for 335-yards and just one touchdown.
Ertz would count almost $13 million against Philadelphia’s cap and he’s expected to take a step back as Dallas Goedert ascends to the No. 1 tight end role.
Had he not reported for camp, he would have been subject to upwards of $40,000 a day in accrued fines.
