Zach Ertz Remains Low-End TE1 for Week 5

Friday, October 3, 10:49 PM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz has continued to be productive in his age-34 season, catching 14 of 20 targets for 149 yards and two touchdowns. Currently the TE11 in total points scored, Ertz will benefit from having star quarterback Jayden Daniels (knee) return to the lineup, as they have built a strong rapport in their two years together. He's been less productive with veteran Marcus Mariota starting the past two games, catching five of seven targets for 59 yards. The veteran will look to get back on the right track in Week 5 against a difficult Chargers defense that has allowed the sixth fewest receptions to tight ends this season. Ertz can be trusted as a low-end TE1 for Week 5.

Dalton Schultz News

Dalton Schultz Developing a Solid PPR Floor

Saturday, October 4, 11:53 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz continues to be a reliable but unspectacular producer in his team's offense, but he does bring some value as a PPR play against the Ravens this week, since quarterback C.J. Stroud continues to lean heavily on him to keep the chains moving. Schultz tied for the team lead with six targets last week and posted a team-high five catches. He only managed 30 yards, though, with his longest play going for nine yards. This season, he has at least three catches in every game but has only totaled 126 yards on his 16 catches. His volume of catches can make him a fill-in play with a high floor as we hit the bye weeks, but his ceiling is limited since his routes are usually short. In RotoBaller's Week 5 projections, Schultz is the No. 15 TE, making him startable in an emergency situation in most formats, even though he doesn't have an elite ceiling.
