Zach Ertz Returns To Limited Practice

Wednesday, January 15, 8:16 PM

After sitting out on Tuesday, Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz (rib) was limited in the team's practice session on Wednesday. It gives Ertz a shot to be available to play this Saturday against the Lions in Detroit for the Divisional Round of the postseason. If the 34-year-old veteran is upgraded to a full practice on Thursday, he could be removed from the final injury report entirely. We'd be pretty surprised if Ertz wasn't out there this weekend. He'll be looking to bounce back after barely being involved in the three-point victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Sunday night on wild-card weekend, where he caught only two of four targets for 23 yards. In Weeks 17 and 18, Ertz finished the regular season strong with 11 catches on 12 targets for 116 yards and three touchdowns, so fantasy managers looking for a lower-cost TE this weekend could do worse than Ertz.

Packers Activating Luke Musgrave From Injured Reserve

Monday, December 23, 1:07 PM

The Green Bay Packers are activating tight end Luke Musgrave (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Monday, and he will play against the New Orleans Saints, according to a source. Musgrave underwent surgery on his ankle in October and hasn't played since Week 3, so the Packers will ease him back in. The 24-year-old caught 34 of his 46 targets for 352 yards and one touchdown in his first 11 NFL games (nine starts) in Green Bay last year. In four games before injuring his ankle this year, Musgrave was barely involved behind Tucker Kraft, catching five of seven targets for 22 yards. He probably won't be all the field that much on Monday night in his first game back after a long layoff, and Musgrave will be a low-upside deep sleeper in DFS formats for the final three games of the regular season and in the playoffs for the Packers.
