Eagles fan-favorite Zach Ertz returns to Philly amid injury concerns on offense

Lane Kiffin’s LSU HUMBLED & EMBARRASSED By Ole Miss | Don’t @ Me w/ Dan Dakich

On today’s episode of Don’t @ Me, Dan Dakich reacts to Lane Kiffin’s emotional postgame comments after losing a thriller in his return to Oxford. From blaming the fanbase to making defeat all about himself, Dan exposes why Kiffin remains overhyped despite never winning anything of note as a head coach. Plus, Dan breaks down how Pete Golding secured a career-defining signature victory while keeping his team grounded and treating the matchup like business as usual.

Zach Ertz is officially back in Midnight Green. The Philadelphia Eagles signed the 35-year-old veteran tight end to their practice squad Monday, according to multiple reports, bringing the Super Bowl LII hero home after starting tight end Dallas Goedert suffered a sprained MCL in Sunday’s 24-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans.

Eagles general manager Howie Roseman needed immediate help.

Goedert is expected to miss several weeks, and the depth chart behind him was looking like a ghost town.

With backup tight ends Eli Stowers and Grant Calcaterra both parked on injured reserve, developmental tight end E.J. Jenkins and practice squad veteran Joshua Deguara were the only healthy targets left for quarterback Jalen Hurts.

Before packing his bags in 2021, Ertz spent nine seasons acting as an automatic third-down conversion machine in Philadelphia. He sits second in franchise history with 579 catches. He needs just 11 more receptions to pass Hall of Fame receiver Harold Carmichael’s record of 589 and become the Eagles’ all-time leader in catches.

Ertz spent the 2024 and 2025 seasons with the division-rival Washington Commanders. He posted 50 receptions for 504 yards and three touchdowns in 13 games last season before a late knee injury ended his year.

Stashing Ertz on the practice squad gives him time to handle conditioning before an expected elevation to the 53-man active roster.
