Ertz, veteran presence, has seized the Washington TE role with strong Weeks 1-2 production and a favorable Week 3 matchup as Kittle is out. Expect continued targets in a short-to-intermediate game plan, backing fantasy value as a reliable TE2 with upside.

Ertz re-emerged as Washington’s top target, delivering Week 2 TE2 production on a steady target share and market-adjusted trust from Daniels.

Ertz continues to be a high-target option in a frequent-end-zone attraction, posting 6-8 on 64 yards with a TD in Week 2 and carrying momentum from Week 1. With a favorable upcoming schedule, he should remain a steady TE2 with TD upside.

Ertz emerged as a reliable safety valve with six receptions for 64 yards and a TD, providing Washington with a steady outlet in a game plan that otherwise struggled to convert sustained drives.

Ertz snagged the Commanders’ first TD of the night, a 20-yard catch-and-carry, highlighting his veteran nose for the end zone and Washington’s preference for timely, methodical drives. His scoring accentuates a TE-driven offense that leans on veteran playmaking in critical moments.
