News: 7 hours agoErtz brought in six of eight targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in the Commanders' 34-26 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.

Spin: Ertz finished the game tied with Noah Brown for the team lead in receptions while checking in second to his teammate in targets. The veteran tight end also found the end zone for the second straight game on a four-yard touchdown grab with just over three minutes remaining. Ertz has been a steady contributor throughout his first season in Washington, and he has at least seven targets in four of the last five games, including three straight, heading into a Week 13 home matchup against the Titans.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Ertz signed a one-year contract with the Commanders, rejoining forces with former Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury, now Washington's offensive coordinator. Ertz, 33, is no longer the player he used to be with the Eagles, succumbing to age and a serious knee injury in recent seasons. However, Ertz was pacing to exceed 50 catches for last season's Cardinals before his November release, and he was in line to replace the departed Logan Thomas before the Commanders drafted Ben Sinnott in the second round. There is mild target opportunity for Washington's tight ends, but Sinnott is the future for the franchise at tight end.
