Commanders' Zach Ertz makes NFL history vs. Chiefs on 'Monday Night Football' Ertz has joined an elite group of players in the NFL record book
OCTOBER 29, 2025 • 247SPORTS.COM

The season is slipping away for Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders

The losses and the injuries just keep mounting for the Washington Commanders
OCTOBER 28, 2025 • Associated Press
Sub-20-yard effort in loss Ertz secured four of six targets for 16 yards in the Commanders' 28-7 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night.
Impact Ertz's yardage total was his lowest for any game this season where he recorded a catch, even as he hit the six-target threshold for the third consecutive game. The veteran tight end's late first-quarter grab was also the subject of some controversy, as Ertz appeared to gain the necessary six yards for a first down on a fourth-down play before a virtual measurement reduced the gain to five yards, leading to a turnover on downs. Ertz has eclipsed 43 receiving yards just once this season, leaving him with muted fantasy prospects heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday night.

Cashes in fourth TD Sunday Ertz (shoulder) had three receptions on seven targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 loss to Dallas.
Impact Ertz was one of the few bright spots on either side of the ball for the Commanders in the blowout loss. The veteran starter cashed in his second touchdown in as many weeks, bringing his season receiving line up to 23-229-4 in seven appearances. Ertz showed no limitations from the shoulder injury that plagued him during the practice week, setting him up for another start against the Chiefs on Monday Night Football in Week 8.

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).

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.

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.

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.

OCTOBER 11, 2025 • THESTATE.COM
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.
