Zach Ertz Emerging As a Consistent Target-Earner in Washington?

Monday, September 15, 10:59 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz hauled in six of eight targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers. The 34-year-old now has nine catches on 13 targets for 90 yards and two scores across his first two games of the season. Dating back to Week 11 of 2024, Ertz has caught eight touchdown passes in his last nine regular-season games, establishing himself as a favorite end-zone target of Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels. The veteran tight end lacks big-play ability, but he's a fairly consistent target-earner and should have a chance to score most weeks while playing with Daniels. Ertz is worth adding in fantasy leagues where he's available as a low-end TE1/high-end TE2.

Dawson Knox News

Dawson Knox Returns to Bills Practice

Thursday, July 31, 2:33 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hamstring) returned to the practice field on Thursday. Knox landed on the active/non-football injury list to begin training camp with a hamstring injury but was activated by the team on Sunday. In 16 games last season, Knox caught 22 passes for 311 yards and one touchdown. The 28-year-old is a key piece for a Buffalo offense that likes to feature multiple-tight end formations, but Knox is clearly behind fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid as a receiver. Unless there's an injury to Kincaid, Knox is unlikely to factor in fantasy during the 2025 season.
