Zach Ertz - Page 18 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Logs full practice Thursday Ertz (hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact After following an LP/LP/FP practice regimen last week, Ertz logged his first uncapped session on his second opportunity during Week 17 prep. With his health not in question ahead of Sunday's game in Dallas, he's poised for another massive workload, as he's coming off double-digit targets in the first two contests since DeAndre Hopkins (knee) was lost for the rest of the regular season. In those pair of appearances, Ertz combined for 14 catches (on 24 targets) for 128 yards.

Still limited by hamstring injury Ertz (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Ertz has tended to hamstring injuries this season while with both Philadelphia and Arizona, with the current one nagging him for a third straight week. Still, he hasn't missed a game and has increased his snap share in each of the past five games from 76 to 97 percent. Ertz has gobbled up 28 of 42 targets for 268 yards and two touchdowns during that span, so he should be set for a decent amount of work over the final two contests of the campaign, especially with DeAndre Hopkins (knee) on injured reserve and running backs James Conner (heel) and Chase Edmonds (back) both banged up at the moment.

Sees season-high 13 targets Ertz reeled in eight of 13 targets for 71 yards during Saturday's 22-16 loss to the Colts.

Impact Since the Cardinals lost DeAndre Hopkins (knee) for the rest of the regular season after Week 14, Kyler Murray has targeted Ertz a whopping 24 times over the last two contests. But the increase in volume has yielded tepid results in the game log, as Ertz has combined for 14 catches for 145 yards and no touchdowns. He actually hasn't reached the end zone, either, since Week 11 -- a span of four outings -- and has yet to get to the century mark in receiving yards in eight appearances with Arizona. In any case, Ertz will look to take advantage of his new standing as Murray's favorite in a showdown at Dallas on Sunday, Jan. 2.

NFL Christmas Day Top Plays: Colts, Packers earn big wins

Set to play Saturday Ertz (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's contest versus the Colts, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Ertz kicked off Week 16 prep with back-to-back limited listings on Cardinals injury reports, only to cap it with a full showing at Thursday's practice. He's thus set to take on an Indianapolis defense that has allowed the most total yards (949) and fifth-most touchdowns (eight, tied with three other teams) to tight ends this season.

Stays limited Wednesday Ertz (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact This marks the third practice report in a row dating back to last week in which the Cardinals have listed Ertz as limited due to a hamstring issue. He wasn't worse for wear this past Sunday at Detroit, gathering in six off 11 targets for 74 yards. Thursday's report will relay whether he heads into Saturday's game versus the Colts with an injury designation.

DECEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Limited listing Tuesday Ertz (hamstring) is listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In the first game with DeAndre Hopkins (knee) officially out for the rest of the regular season, Ertz earned a season-high 11 targets this past Sunday in Detroit, which he turned into six catches for 74 yards. Ertz also dealt with the hamstring issue prior to that contest and proceeded to suit up, but his activity still will need to be monitored to make sure he's available Saturday versus the Colts.

Targeted 11 times in loss Ertz (hamstring) caught six of 11 targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 30-12 loss to Detroit.

Impact Ertz was a late addition to the injury report Friday but didn't seem hampered by the hamstring injury, ranking second behind Christian Kirk in catches, targets and receiving yards. The 11 targets were a season high for the veteran tight end, who should continue to play a prominent pass-catching role in Week 16 against the Colts with top wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (knee) having been ruled out for the remainder of the regular season.

Playing in Week 15 Ertz (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game at Detroit.

Impact A late-week addition to the Cardinals' injury report, Ertz will sidestep the hamstring issue that limited him at Friday's practice and earned him a questionable designation for this contest. Now that he's been confirmed as available for Week 15 action, he'll look to strike against a Lions defense that has allowed nearly 8.0 yards per target (seventh worst in the NFL) but only four total TDs (tied for 18th most) to tight ends in 13 games this season.

DECEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Ertz's availability will be confirmed before the first wave of games Sunday, given that Arizona and Detroit kick off at 1 p.m. ET. The tight end was added to Cardinals' injury report Friday after logging a limited practice due to a hamstring issue.

Added to report with hamstring injury Ertz (hamstring) was added to the injury report Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Detroit, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact The end-of-week addition is worrisome for anyone counting on the veteran tight end in a fantasy lineup this week, though it doesn't necessarily mean his hamstring issue is serious. If Ertz doesn't end up playing, the Cardinals will be left with Demetrius Harris and Darrell Daniels at tight end.
