Active as expected Sunday Ertz (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Impact The veteran tight end was reported to be trending toward suiting up for Sunday's divisional clash, and that has now been made official. Ertz, who's averaging a modest 4.5 targets per game, should be in for a boost in volume due to the absences of Terry McLaurin (quadriceps), Deebo Samuel (heel) and Noah Brown (IR, groin/knee).

Expected to face Cowboys Ertz (shoulder), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Dallas, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Ertz appears positioned for a significant role in the receiving game versus the Cowboys, with Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Deebo Samuel (heel) both ruled out, and Noah Brown (groin/knee) on injured reserve. The veteran tight end secured all six of his targets for 43 yards and a score during Washington's narrow loss to the Bears in Week 6, a contest Samuel took the field for, so it won't be surprising if Ertz sees his target share grow versus a Dallas defense that's surrendered the most passing yards to opponents in the league through six weeks. His status may not be made official until roughly 90 minutes prior to kickoff at 4:25 p.m. ET, but Ertz is on track to take the field Sunday.

Likely to play Sunday Ertz (shoulder), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Dallas, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Ertz appears positioned for a significant role in the receiving game this weekend, as Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Deebo Samuel (heel) have both been ruled out, and Noah Brown (groin/knee) was recently placed on injured reserve. After logging six targets while the Commanders had Samuel available for this past Monday's loss to the Bears, Ertz could see his target share grow versus a Dallas defense that's surrendered the most passing yards to opponents in the league through six weeks. His status may not be made official until Washington releases its inactive list roughly 90 minutes prior to kickoff at 4:25 p.m. ET, but Ertz is on track to take the field Sunday.

Questionable for Sunday Ertz (shoulder/calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Dallas, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ertz started the week as a non-participant, upgrading to 'full' on Thursday before dropping back to 'limited' on Friday. The focus largely has been on Washington's wide receivers this week, but Deebo Samuel (heel) might not be the only game-day decision among the pass catchers. With Terry McLaurin (quad) ruled out, there is a nice opportunity for Ertz and Samuel to pile up looks against a weak defense if they avoid the inactive list ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Bounces back with TD Ertz brought in all six targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in the Commanders' 25-24 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Impact Following a Week 5 blanking at the hands of the Chargers, Ertz enjoyed a noteworthy resurgence in Monday's narrow loss. The veteran tight end led the Commanders in receptions and targets while checking in behind only Chris Moore in receiving yards. Ertz also scored his first touchdown since Week 2 on a six-yard scoring grab early in the fourth quarter, rounding out an encouraging night that also saw him tie a season high in receptions. Ertz should have a good chance at carrying over his momentum into Week 7, as he'll face the Cowboys' vulnerable defense on the road.

Blanked in Week 5 Ertz failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Chargers.

Impact Despite Jayden Daniels returning from a knee injury in Week 5, Ertz had his worst game of the season. He was targeted just once and didn't appear to be a part of the Commanders' offensive game plan. Ertz still logged 30 offensive snaps operated as Washington's No. 1 tight end, playing ahead of John Bates (28 snaps) and Ben Sinnott (17 snaps). With both Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin/knee) sidelined Sunday, Ertz was expected to serve as one of the Commanders' primary receiving threats but failed to capitalize. He's likely to operate as Washington's top tight end again in the Week 6 matchup against the Bears.

OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Relatively quiet Sunday Ertz caught two of four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Falcons.

Impact The 34-year-old tied Luke McCaffery for the second-most receiving yards on the Commanders in Week 4, trailing Deebo Samuel's 72-yard performance. Although he ranked second on the team in yards, Ertz's performance was a little underwhelming considering two of the team's top three wideouts, Noah Brown (groin) and Terry McLaurin (quadriceps), were sidelined Sunday. Regardless, Ertz's target volume will likely stabilize when Jayden Daniels (knee) returns from injury, which could come in the Week 6 matchup against the Chargers.

Three grabs in Week 3 win Ertz caught all three of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.

Impact The veteran tight end tied Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Luke McCaffrey for the team lead in receptions, as the Commanders did most of their damage on the ground with Marcus Mariota at quarterback instead of Jayden Daniels (knee). Ertz also saw his two-game TD streak end, and he sports a 12-128-2 line on 16 targets to begin the season. If Daniels is able to return in Week 4 against the Falcons, Ertz seems likely to have his target volume perk back up.
